Pricing guide · updated September 2026
Most Singapore web design quotes hide the real number behind a “contact us” form. This page doesn't. Here are the honest 2026 price bands, what each one genuinely buys you, and the costs that only show up after you've signed.
The short answer
A business website in Singapore costs anywhere from nothing to five figures, and the spread is not about quality alone — it is about how much of the work you do yourself. Here is the honest range, including what our competitors charge.
| Option | Typical price | You get | You supply |
|---|---|---|---|
| DIY builder (Wix, Squarespace, Shopify) | S$150–500 / year | A template and an editor | All design, copy, images and your weekends |
| Magic Dev Studio one-page site | S$300 one-time | Custom one page, built for you, live in 1 business day, on-page SEO, 30 days support | Your business details and logo |
| Budget agency package | S$400–1,500 | Template-based multi-page site, usually WordPress, sometimes free domain and hosting year one | Content, and patience — typically 2–4 weeks |
| Freelance designer | S$800–4,000 | Custom 3–8 page site, direct communication | Content, feedback rounds, 3–6 weeks |
| Agency, custom build | S$2,000–15,000+ | Strategy, custom design, CMS, integrations, testing | A brief, a budget, and 6–12 weeks |
Ranges reflect publicly advertised Singapore pricing as of September 2026. Agency projects with e-commerce, booking systems or multi-language requirements routinely exceed the top of this range.
Band by band
The cheapest sticker price and the most expensive in hours. Wix and Squarespace are genuinely capable tools, but they hand you a blank template and a learning curve. Most small business owners we talk to spent two or three weekends on a builder before giving up or shipping something they were quietly embarrassed by.
It also never stops costing. Cancel the subscription and the site disappears.
A single scrolling page carrying your intro, services, proof and contact details. For a service business whose customers mainly want to know what you do and how to reach you, this is often the entire job.
It is the band with the widest quality gap, because “one page” can mean a genuine custom design or a recoloured template. Ask to see three sites they actually shipped.
Usually a WordPress theme, configured. Some advertise unlimited pages at this price, which sounds generous — but ten template pages that nobody reads are worth less than one page that converts. Check whether the price includes copywriting; it usually doesn't.
Good value when you find the right person, and genuinely custom. The trade-offs are timeline and bus factor: three to six weeks is normal, and support depends on one individual staying reachable.
Worth it when the website is the business: e-commerce, bookings, portals, anything with real traffic at stake. You are paying for strategy, project management and accountability, not just pixels.
Older guides (and some vendors) still quote “PSG-subsidised” website packages. That grant is closed: Enterprise Singapore says EDG, MRA and PSG ceased on 29 September 2026, and from 30 September grant support runs under the EDGE Grant. Check your eligibility with Enterprise Singapore before you buy. Below about S$1,000 the paperwork rarely pays for itself.

How to choose
If the honest answer to step one is “I need to look professional and be contactable”, a well-built single page does that job completely — and leaves budget for the photography and ads that actually bring customers.
Questions
Between roughly S$150 a year for a DIY builder subscription and S$15,000 or more for a custom agency build. Most small Singapore businesses land between S$300 and S$1,500. A custom one-page site done for you starts at SGD 300 one-time; budget agency packages run S$400–1,500; freelancers S$800–4,000; full agencies S$2,000 upward.
Because the price mostly reflects how much work you do yourself and how much custom design is involved. A builder subscription is cheap because you are the designer. An agency is expensive because it includes strategy, project management, copywriting and testing. The middle bands differ mainly on whether the design is custom or a configured template.
It depends entirely on what is cheap about it. Cheap because it is one well-built page instead of eight unnecessary ones is good value. Cheap because it is an unmodified template with stock photos and no copywriting is not — it will look like every other site using that template. Ask to see live examples before deciding.
In Singapore, expect S$300 to S$1,500 for a one-page site depending on whether the design is custom. Ours is SGD 300 one-time for a custom-designed page with on-page SEO, delivered in 1 business day. Additional pages are quoted separately.
Not for the design work, if it is a one-time build. You will always have running costs for a domain (about S$20–60 a year) and hosting (S$5–30 a month). DIY builders are different — those are pure subscriptions, and the site stops working if you stop paying.
Not any more. Enterprise Singapore says EDG, MRA and PSG ceased on 29 September 2026; from 30 September 2026, business grant support runs under the EDGE Grant. Check your eligibility for the EDGE Grant with Enterprise Singapore before you buy, and be wary of any quote that still shows a PSG-subsidised price. On a project under about S$1,000 the application effort often outweighs the saving. We are not a grant-listed vendor.
At minimum: design, build, mobile responsiveness, on-page SEO basics, a contact method, and a stated number of pages and revision rounds. Check separately for copywriting, photography, domain, hosting, post-launch support, and who owns the accounts. Anything not written down will be billed later.
A one-page site can be live in one business day. A template-based multi-page site typically takes 2–4 weeks, a custom freelance build 3–6 weeks, and a full agency project 6–12 weeks. Delays are almost always caused by content, not design.
