A small-business website costs anywhere from nothing to $10,000 or more, depending on who builds it. A do-it-yourself builder like Squarespace or Wix runs $16 to $40 a month, but you supply the time, the copy, and the photos. A freelancer might charge $500 to $3,000 for a basic site. An agency typically starts around $5,000 and goes up from there.
The price is not the only thing to compare. Ask what ships with the site: analytics, search setup, security, and a contact form that actually reaches you. A cheap build that skips those leaves you paying again to fix them later.
Signal charges $2,000 flat for a complete multi-page site, and you see the finished site before you pay anything. Hosting, updates, and content changes are available monthly on any plan. There is no deposit.
