What Web Designers in Sydney Charge (2026)
We read the websites of the first 20 web design businesses Google showed us for Sydney. Eight show a price. Here are the Sydney prices we found for about five pages, and what they add up to over two years.
Search for a web designer in Sydney and most of the results won’t tell you a price. On 10 October 2026 we read the websites of the first 20 web design businesses Google showed us for Sydney. Eight show a price for a website. Four more give only a general market range, and eight show no website price at all. We haven’t named any of them, because prices change.
The short version: Among the 15 Sydney-based designers we found who publish a price, about five pages costs from $899 plus GST to $5,000 plus GST and up, or $195 a month on a plan with a six-month minimum. Over two years, the Sydney totals we could work out ran from $1,779.58 to $6,424 or more, both including GST. For comparison, CatalystHub’s five-page build is $500 flat including GST, with free hosting on your own account. We build remotely from Perth, and bigger sites get their own package or a custom quote.

Three things to check on any quote:
- Is GST in the price? Of the 15 Sydney designers who publish prices, two include GST, four add it on top and nine don’t say beside the price.
- What do you pay after launch? In the Sydney prices above, the monthly fee runs from $29.95 plus GST for hosting alone to $295 for a full plan. Ask for the figure before you sign, and multiply it by two years.
- Is there a minimum term, and who owns the site? Two of the monthly plans above have minimums of three and six months. One says you own the design and content from day one. Ask, and get the answer in writing.
Where CatalystHub fits
We work from Perth, not Sydney, and build for clients Australia-wide. Web design across Australia shows how. Our answers to the three checks above: GST is in the price, which is $500 flat for the five-page Standard build, live in seven business days. After launch you pay for your domain. Hosting is free on your own account, and a care plan is optional. There is no minimum term, and you own the code and the domain. Need more than five pages? Larger sites have their own packages, listed on our pricing page with what each one includes.
Among the seven NSW-based designers in our first 20 who showed a price, the median entry price re-read on 3 November 2026 was $4,000. See how other states compare in our prices by state and territory.
