Compare Web Design & Hosting Prices
SUTTONNet custom-builds each site based on extensive client consultation. So we can't provide definitive quotes here.
We do show our starter prices for SUTTONNet websites, what you will get for your $, and what to expect in ongoing webhosting & software licence fees. We recommend that you check out the standard inclusions for SUTTONNet websites before you jump into the pricelist.
There's also a form at the end of this page, which is designed to help you:
- explore what you need from your new website. You can print or save the completed form for your own use;
- request a quote from SUTTONNet (optional).

Cost vs service
It's not easy to compare website development and webhosting value. There are few standards or standardised terms.
Read below what's included in a typical SUTTONNet website development project. If something is missing that you think you need, ask us.
Some features touted by web designers don't mean much; or they are so fundamental so that no competent developer would omit them.
Conversely, important items such as ongoing support might be missing from a very cheap quote.
Make sure that you access the technical knowhow your business needs to succeed online.
-
Initial vs ongoing
Check ongoing costs & service: webhosting, email hosting (does the webhost offer own-domain email hosting?), website or hosting support, software licences & essential software updates.
Service levels - You can find cheaper alternatives than our fully managed webhosting with 24/7 support. But if your website's server goes down on a Saturday night, who will fix it and when? Who will install software upgrades, and what will they charge you?
Search engine rankings - By starting out right with a well built website and well written webpage content, many businesses don't need to budget for exorbitant ongoing search engine optimisation (SEO) costs. Very few SUTTONNet clients have needed digital marketing specialists.
Longevity - A SUTTONNet website is built to last. You can add features over time: eg more webpages, ecommerce, new styling to touch up the website's appearance. That's simpler and cheaper than creating an all-new website design every few years.
