Frequently asked

How much does a website cost in Ireland?

Most small business websites in Ireland cost between €400 and €3,500 depending on size and complexity. Simple brochure sites sit at the lower end, while e-commerce and custom builds start around €3,500 and rise with functionality.

How much does a website cost in Dublin?

Dublin pricing is broadly in line with the rest of Ireland. A simple professional site typically ranges from €400 to €1,500, with larger or e-commerce projects costing more. Studios that produce copy and photography for you will sit higher in the range.

Is it cheaper to use a template?

Template-based sites can reduce upfront cost, but a bespoke design usually performs better, loads faster and represents your brand more accurately — which matters more over the life of the site.

Are there ongoing costs?

Yes. Budget for hosting and a domain, and optionally an ongoing care plan for updates, security and support. At Studio Éire care plans start at €25/month.
