The price of WordPress websites Melbourne built varies wildly and differs to a WordPress website built overseas. Our team are Melbourne WordPress developers with over 20 years experience in WordPress, and are coders not designers (we have dedicated WordPress website designers for that!). So you pay more than a junior team or offshore development.

Other factors include the complexity of the design, the number of features, and any additional services required. If a brand guideline is available, is content (copywriting services) are required, and more.

We offer customised pricing based on your specific needs. As a guide, for WordPress theme development, you are looking at prices starting from $10k, up to $100k+ for enterprise level websites and beyond. Each website brief is unique, which is why we don't offer packages. We can work to all budgets, and timelines.

The timeline for developing a WordPress website varies based on the complexity and specific requirements of the project. On average, a standard business website takes 6-8 weeks to complete, while more complex projects may take longer. If you are looking for an eCommerce website, this can add 2 weeks to the timeline as it's more complex than a standard business website. If copywriting services are required, this can add to the timeline also. The best approach is to discuss your required timeline with your WordPress agency.
