Pricing questions.

Are there hidden fees or lock-in contracts?

No. Builds are once-off. Care plans and retainers run month to month with 30 days' notice. The monthly website is the one exception: it has a 12-month minimum, because the build cost is spread over that year.

Why a range and not a fixed price?

Two businesses with 6 pages can need very different amounts of work. After a 10-minute chat we send a written, fixed quote within 48 hours, so you know the exact number before you commit.

Do I have to host with Klipwerks?

No. Hosting is optional and you're free to host the site yourself. You own the site and the domain.

Is VAT included?

Klipwerks is not VAT-registered, so no VAT is charged. If that changes, VAT will apply from the registration date and be shown on the quote.

A 10-minute chat. No obligation.

We'll tell you honestly whether a website makes sense for your business, and what it would cost.
