How much does a Wix website cost? It depends on your Wix plan, your domain and whether you build it yourself or hire a designer. This guide breaks down each part.
The short answer is that a Wix website has two separate costs. You pay Wix for the plan and your domain name, and you pay a designer for building the site. Mixing them up is the most common reason owners are surprised by the final bill.
Cost 1: your Wix plan and domain
To publish a site on your own web address you need a paid Wix plan and a domain name. Wix bills these directly, usually monthly or yearly, and they renew. Plan names and prices change from time to time, so check Wix’s own pricing page for current figures. Buy both in your own account, so you own them and can move them later.
Cost 2: building the website
Four things change what a designer charges:
- Number of pages. A one-page site takes far less work than a ten-page site.
- Features. An online store, booking, a members area or a blog all add setup work.
- Content. If you already have your logo, text and photos, the job is faster. If the designer must write text or find images, it costs more.
- New or redesign. Rebuilding an old site means moving content and keeping old links working.
Costs people forget
- A logo and brand colors, if you do not have them yet
- Product photos or a photographer
- Writing the page text
- Wix apps that charge a monthly fee
- Updates and support after launch
How to compare quotes fairly
Ask every designer for a written list of what is included and what is not, how many revisions you get, how long delivery takes, and what you need to send them. A low price that leaves out SEO setup or mobile checks is not a bargain, because you will pay for those later.
You can see what each of our packages includes, and what is not included, on the pricing page.
