Cost guide

How much does a tradie website cost in Australia?

Ask five web companies and you will get five numbers, most of them between $1,500 and $8,000. Here is what actually drives the price, what a trade business genuinely needs, and what it costs when the quote is fixed up front — from AUD $200.

What tradies are commonly quoted in 2026

Across Australian agencies and "tradie website" specialists, published guides and quotes typically land in these bands:

  • DIY builders (Wix, Squarespace and friends): $25 to $60+ a month, forever — cheap to start, but you are renting, and after a couple of years you have paid more than a professional build.
  • Budget template shops: $400 to $1,000 up front, often with monthly "care plans" attached.
  • Tradie-specialist agencies: $1,500 to $3,500 is the range most quote for a standard trade site.
  • Full agencies: $3,000 to $8,000+, built on hourly rates of $50 to $150.

None of those numbers reflect what a trade site technically requires. They reflect how the seller prices their time.

What a trade website actually needs

  • Your services, spelt out the way customers search for them
  • Photos of real jobs — the thing that wins quotes
  • Licence and insurance details displayed properly
  • A phone number that is one tap on mobile
  • A quote or contact form that reaches you instantly
  • Service-area pages so locals can find you

That is a handful of well-built pages. It is real work, but it is not $5,000 of work.

Frequently asked questions

How much should a tradie pay for a website?

The new website package is AUD $200 for up to 10 pages, including basic SEO, your branding and your own supplied images. Available optional features such as contact forms, maps, bookings and testimonials are selected and priced separately in the quote tool. Store, catalogue and membership requirements are assessed and quoted separately from your project notes. A gallery using your images is included within the package. A 50% deposit starts the work; you review the website before the remaining balance and launch.

Why do agencies quote thousands for a tradie website?

Custom design hours, project management and agency overhead. An hourly designer at $50 to $150 an hour needs 20 to 60 hours for a small site, so the maths lands at $2,000 to $6,000 before extras. A fixed-price, streamlined build removes most of those hours.

Are there ongoing costs?

Only the ones you choose. Hosting and your domain are yours, in your name — typically a few dollars a month if you self-manage. If you would rather never touch hosting, our managed option is $40 a month. There are no forced monthly fees.

What add-ons do tradies actually buy?

Basic SEO is included in every new AUD $200 website package. We research relevant keywords and search terms for each build, then use them in page titles, descriptions, headings and content. For an existing website, Basic SEO is AUD $250 and Advanced SEO is AUD $1,000. Rankings are not guaranteed.

How fast can it be live?

We confirm the delivery timeframe after reviewing your brief, selected features, content and approvals. A seven-day deadline is not guaranteed. Supply your business details, logo and images early so we can plan the build.
