What actually drives a website's price
Every quote you will ever get moves on the same five levers. Pages: each one needs design, copy and upkeep. Languages: a true bilingual build is two sets of copy written by humans, not a translate widget. Booking and lead capture: calendars, forms and notifications that have to work at 11 PM. Payments and integrations: stores, CRMs, anything that moves money or data. And content: real photos and copy that sells. When a quote looks suspiciously high, one of these levers is being billed at agency hourly rates. When it looks suspiciously low, one of them is missing and you will pay for it later.
What Miami actually charges
Published market data puts Miami freelancers around 75 dollars an hour with typical projects at 2,000 to 8,000 dollars, and agencies at 85 to 150 an hour with small business builds quoted between 3,000 and 25,000. Those numbers are real, and for custom work they can be fair. Our prices look different because the product is different: a standardized, fast, bilingual build measured in days, not a bespoke project measured in billable hours. Same outcome where it counts, loading speed, lead capture, Google visibility, without paying for anyone's office on Brickell.

The monthly fee, explained honestly
Typical Miami maintenance retainers run 125 to 600 dollars a month. Ours run 29 to 149 because the care plan covers exactly what a site needs to stay alive: hosting, SSL, backups, security updates, small content changes and a human who answers when something breaks. A website with no plan does not stay free, it stays frozen: hours drift wrong, prices age, plugins break silently, and the rebuild lands all at once three years later. The plan is not an upsell. It is the difference between owning a site and renting a liability.
The mistakes that inflate budgets
Paying agency rates for a template anyone can buy. Rebuilding the whole site when two pages do all the selling. Custom features before the first hundred visitors. A reservation or chat widget bolted on at full price when it should be part of the build. And the most expensive one in Miami: launching in one language and discovering later that half the market never saw you. The calculator above prices the build that avoids all five, and the number you see is the number you pay.
Website cost questions, answered straight
How much does a basic website cost in Miami?
A sharp one-page site costs $199 setup plus $29 a month with us. Agencies in Miami typically charge $1,500 to $5,000 for the same thing. The difference is overhead, not quality.Why is there a monthly fee?
Hosting, security, backups, small changes, and a human who answers when something breaks. A website you never touch ages like milk.How much does a bilingual website cost?
Our bilingual builds run $2,500 setup. Both languages are written by people who live in Miami, not run through a translator.Can I just pay once and own it?
You own the site from day one, code included. The monthly plan keeps it fast, secure and updated. Cancel it and the site is still yours.How long does it take?
A one-page Express site goes live in under a week. Bigger builds take two to four weeks, mostly waiting on your photos and content.Freelancer, agency, or this: what is the real difference?
Miami freelancers run about 75 dollars an hour and quote 2,000 to 8,000 per project. Agencies run 85 to 150 an hour and quote 3,000 to 25,000. We charge 199 to 2,500 because the build is a standardized product, not a from-scratch project, and the monthly plan carries the maintenance an hourly quote leaves out.What makes a website cost more?
Five things, in order: number of pages, a second language, booking or lead capture, payments or integrations, and custom photography or copy. Everything else, hosting, SSL, forms, mobile, should be included, not an add-on.I already have a website. Is it cheaper to fix it?
Sometimes. If it loads fast and you can edit it, targeted fixes beat a rebuild. If it is slow, locked in an old builder, or single-language in Miami, rebuilding on a modern stack usually costs less than patching. The free teardown tells you which side yours is on.
