Website redesign cost depends on the number of pages, the features you need and how much content is ready. Plan the page list first, ask for an hour estimate, and pay by the hour. A team lead reviews the work.
Website redesign cost is not one fixed number. It changes with the size of your site and the work you want done. The good news is that you control most of what drives it.
What changes your website redesign cost
- Pages. More pages mean more hours for layout and text.
- Features. Forms, bookings, shops and logins add work.
- Content. Ready text and images save time. Missing content costs hours.
- Changes. Each extra round of edits adds time.
- Moving the old site. Redirects and page moves protect your search traffic.
Refresh or full redesign?
A refresh updates the look, images and text, and keeps the structure. It costs fewer hours. A full redesign changes the layout and sometimes the platform. Choose a redesign if the site is slow, hard to edit or poor on phones.
Website redesign checklist
- List every page you have and mark keep, merge or remove.
- Note which pages bring visitors and enquiries today.
- Write the goal of each page in one sentence.
- Gather text, photos and logos in one folder.
- Choose the platform you can edit yourself.
- Plan redirects from old pages to new ones.
Website redesign for a small business: plan the hours
Ask your developer for an hour estimate for each page group, such as home, services and contact. Add a small buffer for changes. Because you pay by the hour, a clear list keeps your total under control.
Redesign my website without losing traffic
Keep the addresses of pages that rank well, or redirect them to the new ones. Keep titles and headings that already work. Check the site again a week after launch. Our website maintenance checklist helps you spot broken links.
Where AI helps
Your developer is a real person. AI helps with first drafts of text and routine checks. A person reviews all of it, and a team lead checks the result.
