What a website redesign costs, in short

Website redesign cost depends on scope, not on a standard rate. The one figure we can give is our own: one-page sites start from €1,000.

Key takeaways

  • Scope drives the price: pages, CMS, integrations, migration, copy, brand and tracking.
  • One-page sites start from €1,000. Larger projects get a custom offer.
  • Budget for platform plans, seats and translation add-ons on top of the build.
  • Treat guaranteed rankings or revenue in a quote as a red flag.

Full websites and brand work run in sprints, which are fixed blocks of work with an agreed goal. We price them as a custom offer after we assess the business, and we set timing after the first call.

We do not publish market averages, because starting prices vary even between similar studios. On their Webflow partner profiles, Foursets and Webnomads list projects starting at $5,000, while GRAFIT lists projects starting at $10,000. Currency and tax also differ by market. A quote for a company in the US, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Canada or Switzerland will not read the same way.

This guide is for B2B founders and marketing leads planning a redesign. It covers what drives the price, typical scopes, how quotes are built, costs people forget and red flags. It does not give market averages, hourly rates or legal advice on consent. Our build experience is on Webflow. Framer details come from Framer's pricing page, not from our own projects.

How much does it cost to update your website? A light update and a full redesign are different scopes. New copy on a few pages or one added section is a small job. New positioning, a new structure and new tracking add up to a project. Price them separately.

What drives website redesign cost

Scope drives the price more than visuals do.

FactorWhat it changesEffect on cost
Scope and page countUnique pages and templatesFewer pages: lower. More templates: higher
CMS and content structureCollections, fields, editor rolesStatic pages: lower. Structured CMS: higher
IntegrationsForms, CRM, scheduling, chatSimple form: lower. CRM sync: higher
Migration and redirectsOld content and URLsNew site: lower. Large old site: higher
CopywritingPositioning and page copyYour copy: lower. New copy: higher
Brand workLogo, type, color, UI systemExisting brand: lower. New brand: higher
Tracking and analyticsGA4, events, consentBasic setup: lower. Event tracking: higher

Integrations differ by platform. On Webflow, HubSpot has an approved Marketplace app for forms and tracking. Salesforce has no official Webflow app, so it connects through third-party apps, Web-to-Lead forms or custom API work, as Webflow's Salesforce integration page explains. That changes the build effort.

Tracking also has limits you should price in. Under opt-in consent regimes such as the EU/EEA, UK and Switzerland, coverage drops for non-consenting visitors. Ad blockers, cross-device visits and multi-touch B2B journeys leave gaps.

If brand work is in scope, see what drives branding cost.

We call our approach the scope-first model, where the price follows structure. The decisions that matter are who the page is for, what it says first and which one action it asks for. The model links three areas that quotes often treat separately:

  1. Design and structure. Positioning and page flow set the page count, templates and CMS.
  2. SEO migration. Every old URL that changes needs a 301 redirect to its new page, or the site risks losing search traffic.
  3. Analytics and consent. Whether events such as GA4's generate_lead fire for every visitor depends on consent settings and Consent Mode configuration, which vary by region and setup, so consent is part of the build.

If one of the three is missing from a quote, its cost appears later.

Typical scopes and what each includes

Most redesigns fall into one of three scopes.

ScopeWhat is includedWho it fits
One-page site, from €1,000One page, copy structure, build, form, basic trackingLaunches, campaigns, a single offer
Marketing siteSeveral pages, CMS, templates, integrations, SEO setup, event trackingCompanies that sell through the site
Redesign with brandPositioning, brand, UI system, full site, migration, trackingCompanies that outgrew their brand

We show a price only for the one-page site, because it is the only scope with a stable starting point. The tradeoff: a published range for larger scopes would be easier to compare, but it would be a guess until we know the page count, copy, migration and languages.

Two worked examples:

  1. A company with an existing brand and copy that needs one product page fits the one-page scope, from €1,000.
  2. A company that needs new positioning, new copy, a new site architecture and a multilingual build gets a custom offer, like the FBA project below.

We design and build on Webflow: design, Webflow development, CMS (content management system) set-up and QA. See our B2B website design service for the full scope. After handover, your team edits content through Webflow's Content editor role on limited seats, which replaced the legacy Editor, as Webflow's deprecation FAQ explains. Routine changes do not need a developer.

What is the best way to redesign a website? Work in this order:

  1. Goals: what the site must do for the business.
  2. Positioning: who it is for and what it says first.
  3. Page structure: sections, proof placement and one primary CTA per page.
  4. Design, as a reusable UI system.
  5. Build and QA.
  6. Tracking, so results can be measured.

How quotes are built

Our quotes are custom offers sent after a first call, not fixed packages. We learn the business, goals and audience, work out what you need, then send an offer.

Two models cover the work. The redesign itself is a fixed project with an agreed scope. After launch we stay on for SEO, campaigns and site improvements, which runs as a retainer: an ongoing agreement for continuing work, not a one-off project. Because we stay on, the tracking set up at launch informs later changes, and each round of improvements starts from data.

The first steps look like this:

  1. First call. We learn your business, goals and audience.
  2. Custom offer. Scope and price, based on what you need.
  3. Kickoff. We get access to your current site, GA4, Search Console, brand materials and sales insights.
  4. Agreement. Together we agree on scope, timeline and success metrics.
  5. Progress. The founders show progress every week.

You work directly with Vlad Levun, who leads design, and Maria Fedosenko, who leads marketing and creative strategy. There are no account managers in between.

One-page sites are our entry scope, and we do not take on clients in industries we consider unethical.

Costs people forget

The redesign quote is not the whole bill. Plan for these as well:

  • Platform plan. On Webflow's pricing page, the Basic site plan costs $15 per month billed yearly or $25 billed monthly and does not include the CMS. Premium, which includes the CMS, starts at $25 per month billed yearly or $39 billed monthly. Limited seats for content editing cost $15 per month billed yearly or $19 billed monthly. A multilingual site adds Localize, Webflow's translation add-on, billed per locale: Localize Essential is $9 per locale per month billed yearly. Prices as of October 9, 2026 (USD, as listed on the vendors' pricing pages). We checked Webflow's Basic and Premium site plans, seats and Localize, and Framer's Free plan, on each vendor's pricing page.
  • Tools and assets. Stock photos, font licenses, automation tools and paid integrations.
  • Content and copy. If copywriting is not in the scope, someone on your side writes it.
  • Maintenance and improvements. Pages, fixes and tests after launch.
  • Ongoing SEO and campaigns. Work based on real data, not a one-time setup.

Can I build my own website for free? You can start for free. Webflow's Starter plan is free with a webflow.io domain and 2 static pages. Framer's Free plan comes with a Framer domain, and a custom domain needs a paid plan, according to Framer's pricing page. Hosting, a custom domain, your design time and credibility with buyers all have a cost.

Can ChatGPT create a website? It can draft copy and rough code. It does not replace positioning, page structure, proof or tracking, and those are where a redesign earns its cost. Our view: as AI tools make drafts and rough code cheaper, we expect more of a redesign budget to move to the parts they cannot do well, such as positioning, proof, migration and measurement.

Red flags in a quote and questions to ask

A quote you cannot check is a risk. Watch for these red flags:

  • No scope list
  • No page count
  • One number with no breakdown
  • Copy and migration not mentioned
  • No tracking setup
  • Guaranteed rankings or revenue
  • No named people doing the work
  • No handover to your team

Ask these questions before you sign:

  • What exactly is included?
  • Who does the work?
  • What happens to our old URLs?
  • Who owns the files?
  • How do we edit the site after launch?
  • How is success measured?

Copy both lists into your brief and use them as a scope checklist when you compare quotes.

No one can guarantee rankings or revenue. We commit to clear positioning, one action per page and tracking so results can be measured and improved.

Frequently asked questions

How does agency work compare with hiring in-house?

You get senior design and marketing from the two founders without hiring both roles. We join your calls and channels and work alongside your team. You make decisions with the people who know the business.

Can we start with one service?

Yes. Most clients start with a brand or a website, and each part is built to connect to the next. Adding SEO or campaigns later does not mean starting over.

Do you offer support after launch, and do you guarantee results?

We support you after launch with SEO, campaigns and site improvements, based on real data. We give no guarantees. We set up tracking so results can be measured and improved.

What if we already have a designer or developer?

We can work alongside them or build from a design you already have. We built Simca's Webflow site from a finished design, and the client team updates it themselves.

A redesign built from structure first: the FBA project

FBA shows what a full redesign scope looks like in practice. For FBA, we rewrote the positioning and copy, redesigned the site architecture, and built the multilingual Webflow site with SEO set-up and conversion tracking.

Several factors from the price table were in scope at once: new copy, a new structure, a multilingual build, SEO and tracking. That is why a project like this is priced as a custom offer, not as a package. Simca needed something different: the design was finished, so the work was a Webflow build the client team updates themselves.

If your redesign needs new positioning, a new structure and more than one language, your scope sits closer to this project than to a one-page site.

Get a custom offer for your redesign

Waves Creative is a two-person, senior-led studio in Warsaw, co-founded by Vlad Levun and Maria Fedosenko. We join your team and handle brand, website and marketing end to end: one senior team instead of separate agencies. Brand & Identity, Webflow Websites, SEO & Content and Client Acquisition are sold separately or together.

We do not guarantee specific revenue or conversion numbers. We commit to structure: clear positioning, a deliberate CTA hierarchy and tracking so results can be measured and improved.

In short, a redesign costs what its scope costs. One-page sites start from €1,000, and anything larger gets a custom offer. As next steps, list your pages, decide whether copy, brand, migration and languages are in scope, and check the platform costs. We review your scope and send a custom offer after a 30-minute call. Bring access to your current site, your analytics and your goals.
