Compare our Web Design & Hosting Services
Bizazz custom-builds every website based on extensive client consultation. We don't provide definitive quotes without talking with you in detail about your goals & needs.
On this page we show you our starting prices and importantly, what you get for your $. If anything is missing from that list that your website will need, just ask us.
There's a form on this webpage to help you explore what you need from your new website. Print or save the completed form for your own use; it's free. You can also send in your form to Bizazz and ask us for a quote.
The basics
Standard Bizazz® websites start at $2500; ecommerce sites start at $4500 (prices ex GST).*
We also offer mini websites (without a content management system) at heavily discounted development & hosting prices (eg Basic one pager: $600 +GST). See our inclusions below.
Expect to pay more for a 'ready to go' site with full text & imagery, page layout and search engine optimisation across all the website, rather than just the main pages. Advantages are consistent layout and quality, and you'll have your website 100% complete & generating sales faster. It's up to you whether you want to save on upfront costs or get online faster.

Compare prices
How can anyone compare web development and webhosting value? Do you know what features to ask about? There are very few standards or even standard definitions. Some features touted in CAPITAL LETTERS by web service providers don't mean much; or they are so basic that every website has them. Conversely, important items might be missing from very cheap or DIY services.
-
Upfront costs & ongoing value
Check out all ongoing costs, & the quality of service & support you will receive:
- webhosting
- email hosting (does the webhost offer custom domain email hosting?)
- website or hosting support
- website software licences
- plugin/theme licences
- essential software updates (who will install them, if you have to DIY, how difficult is it?)
- search engine optimisation & digital marketing.
Watch out for hidden extras: eg ecommerce providers & payment gateways might charge annual fees &/or percentage fees per sale.
Service levels - If your website's server goes down on a Saturday night, who will fix it and when? Try our managed webhosting backed up by 24/7 technical support and leave the worrying to us.
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 of our clients need SEO help.
Longevity - A Bizazz website is built to last for many years. You can add features over time: eg more webpages, ecommerce, re-arrange pages in the menu, new layouts or colours. That's faster and cheaper than creating an all-new website every few years, as your business grows.
