What drives the cost
Rendering strategy
Static, server-rendered or client-side choices affect effort and hosting.
Design system
Building a component library first adds time but speeds later work.
CMS integration
Headless CMS set-up and content modelling add scope.
Authentication and dashboards
Logged-in areas need security and data work.
Performance budget
Strict performance targets need optimisation time.
What should be included in the price
Whatever level you choose, the proposal should list deliverables, milestones, warranty and ownership in writing. Compare that list across quotes; our React & Next.js development page shows a typical scope.
How long it takes
Marketing sites take 4–8 weeks; dashboards and app front-ends take 8–16 weeks.
Timelines depend as much on how quickly decisions and content arrive from your side as on development speed.
Costs people forget
- Domain and hosting renewals
- Premium plugins or theme licences, if any
- Professional photography or stock images
- Copywriting for every page
- Monthly maintenance, backups and security
How to get better value
- Write down the outcome you want, not just the features
- Start with the smallest version that delivers that outcome, then expand
- Compare proposals on the same scope, not on the headline price
- Make sure code, accounts and content will be in your name
