What a website costs in Australia
About half the web designers we checked don’t put a price on their website. On 10 October 2026 we read the websites of the first 20 web design businesses Google showed us in each of four capital cities. That is 80 listings, and five agencies turn up in two cities. Forty-one of the 80 show a price for a website. The other 39 don’t. We haven’t named any of them, because prices change.
City by city
| City | Designers we read | Show a website price | Prices in the city guide run from |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sydney | 20 | 8 | $599 to $8,500 and up |
| Melbourne | 20 | 7 | $500 to $15,000 and up |
| Brisbane | 20 | 14 | $595 to $8,000 and up |
| Adelaide | 20 | 12 | $590 to $12,000 and up |
Some of those prices have GST added on top, and each city guide says which. In Western Australia we read 94 designers across nine towns and suburbs outside central Perth, and 35 publish a price. Those are on our Western Australia page.
What five pages costs, city by city
These are the lowest prices in our city guides for a site of about five pages.
| City | What the package is | Published price |
|---|---|---|
| Sydney | 5 pages, with the words written for you | $899 plus GST |
| Melbourne | Up to 5 pages | $800, GST not stated |
| Brisbane | 4 to 6 pages, you supply the words and photos | $595, GST not stated |
| Brisbane | Up to 5 pages, with six months of hosting and domain | $990, GST not stated |
| Adelaide | 4-page site, with the first year of hosting and a two-year domain | $1,190 plus GST |
| Adelaide | 5-page site | From $1,500, GST not stated |
| CatalystHub | 5-page website (Standard build), with the words written for you | $500 flat, including GST |
An Adelaide Hills designer also lists a site of up to nine pages at $590, on a price list dated January 2021.
What we charge
| CatalystHub build | Price |
|---|---|
| 5-page website (Standard build) | $500 flat, including GST |
| About 9 pages | Around $900, as a custom quote |
| Up to 15 pages (Specialist build) | From $1,500, including GST |
| Online store (custom Shopify theme) | From $700, including GST, plus Shopify’s own monthly fee |
| Anything bigger or custom | A custom quote |
The Standard build is $500 wherever you are in Australia. The Standard, Advanced and Specialist builds are live in seven business days. On all three, you own the code and the domain, hosting is free on your own account, and you get every login at launch. The packages above and ours aren’t identical, so check what’s included on our pricing page before you compare.
What it adds up to over two years
The build price is only part of it. These are the lowest two-year totals in each city guide for a site of about five pages. The Adelaide guide also has a $970 total, from a price list dated January 2021 for a site of up to nine pages. Each city guide has the others.
| Route | Upfront | After launch | Two-year total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brisbane, 4 to 6 pages, you supply the words and photos | $595, first year of hosting included | Hosting at $330 a year after that | $925 |
| Adelaide 4-page site | $1,190 plus GST, first year of hosting included | Hosting at $110 plus GST a year after that | $1,430 inc. GST |
| Melbourne, up to 5 pages with the designer’s hosting | $999 | Hosting from $29 a month | $1,695 or more |
| Sydney 5-page package with the designer’s hosting | $899 plus GST | Hosting at $29.95 plus GST a month | $1,779.58 inc. GST, before your domain |
| Brisbane, 4 to 6 pages, with the words written for you | $1,495, first year of hosting included | Hosting at $330 a year after that | $1,825 |
| CatalystHub Standard build with our Basic care plan (hosting, daily backups and security updates) | $500 | $49 a month, first month free | $1,627 inc. GST |
| CatalystHub Standard build, no care plan | $500 | Your domain. Hosting is free on your own account | $500, plus your domain |
Three things to check on any quote, wherever you are:
- Is GST in the price? Across the four cities we checked 73 designers who publish a price. Six say GST is included and 22 add it on top. Most of the rest don’t say beside the price.
- Do you own the site? Monthly plans handle this differently. One we read hands the site over after 24 months. On two others the provider keeps the website when you stop paying. Ask, and get the answer in writing.
- What do you pay after launch? Ask for the monthly or yearly figure before you sign, and multiply it by two years.

How it works from Perth
We’re a Perth studio, based in Rivervale, and we build remotely. There’s no meeting to travel to, whether you’re in Sydney or Adelaide. Perth is two hours behind Brisbane all year. It is two hours behind Sydney and Melbourne too, or three during daylight saving. It is an hour and a half behind Adelaide, or two and a half during daylight saving.
- You fill in a short brief and we have one 30-minute call.
- We write the words and build the site. You see it on a test link (a private preview) by day four.
- You send changes. We make them.
- The site goes live seven business days after we start, and every login is yours.
It takes about an hour of your time. Start your project, see how the $500 build works, or read our guide to what a small business website costs in Australia.
Figures: prices read on each designer’s own website on 10 October 2026. In each city the 20 are the first web design businesses Google showed us that day, searched from Perth while signed out, skipping ads, directories and list articles. In Brisbane and Adelaide we counted only businesses based there. In Sydney and Melbourne a few of the 20 have a head office in another city. In Brisbane, four of the 14 give a rough guide, not a package price. In Sydney, four more give only a general market range and aren’t counted. Results change by day and by place. Business counts from the Australian Bureau of Statistics, 30 June 2025.
What our clients say.
CatalystHub built our new website. Vish took the time to understand what we needed, kept us updated through the whole process, and had the site live in 3 weeks. The price was much lower than the other quotes we got, and the quality didn't suffer. Highly recommend them for web design and SEO in Perth.
So glad we picked CatalystHub. They did a full custom design based on our requirements and it looks far more professional than we expected for the price. Honestly, I don't think you'll find better value for money anywhere in Australia. They were clear about costs from day one, and there were no surprises. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommend.
CatalystHub showed me how overpriced most agencies are. Clear prices, no hidden fees, and better results for less.
Really happy with the website they built for us. The whole process was smooth, communication was clear, and they were patient with all the small changes we needed along the way. The final website looks professional, clean, and easy to use. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable website design team.
Very professional and easy to deal with from the start to finish. Communication was clear, the process was smooth and the final website design was excellent.
CatalystHub was truly amazing at what they do. Vish organised everything from start to finish. Communication was excellent, nothing was ever a problem, and no questions were left unanswered. Very happy with their services. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking to get a website set up. A huge thank you!
I had a great experience working with this team. What stood out most was how easy they made the whole process feel. They listened properly, understood what I wanted, and turned it into a website that feels professional and suits the business well. I never felt rushed or confused, and the communication was friendly from start to finish. Highly recommend them.
I had a fantastic experience working with CatalystHub on our website project. From start to finish, their team was professional, creative, and highly skilled.

Since launching the new website, we’ve received positive feedback from clients and seen an increase in traffic. I highly recommend CatalystHub to anyone looking for high-quality web design and development
Honestly, I was surprised by the quality of the work, especially considering the price. The final result looked professional, polished and far better than I expected for what I paid. Great value for money, and I'm genuinely happy with the outcome. Highly recommend CatalystHub!
The team at CatalystHub have been fantastic to work with. They took the time to understand our business and created a website that not only looks professional but also clearly reflects what we do. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and any questions or changes we had were handled quickly and thoroughly.

We’re extremely happy with the final website and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend CatalystHub to anyone looking for a reliable, professional and highly capable web design team.
CatalystHub recently redesigned our website, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. We would recommend them again and again. The entire experience was seamless from beginning to end. They created a fresh new look for us and ticked all the boxes. They understood our brand quickly and gave us exactly the revamp we needed. The team was experienced, professional, and easy to deal with throughout the process. Getting a website right isn’t always as simple as it seems, but they have a great eye for detail and made the whole process feel effortless. The feedback since launch has been wonderful. Thank you, CatalystHub!
Highly recommend. Vish was very professional, knowledgeable and responsive throughout the engagement to build a website for my new legal practice.
