Frequently Asked Questions

Website prices in South Africa range from a few thousand rand to well over R50,000 depending on scope. RDS Studio's Starter package is R3,500 once-off for a basic brochure site. Business, the most popular option, is R8,500 for a 5-page WordPress site. E-Commerce is R18,500. Premium and Custom builds start from R30,000. The honest answer to "how much does a website cost" is that it depends on what the site actually needs to do: a simple brochure site with five pages costs far less than an e-commerce store with product management, payment integration and inventory sync, or a custom web application with user accounts and a database behind it. We publish real prices instead of "contact us for a quote" specifically so you can budget before you ever get on a call with us. Common add-ons include extra pages (from R500 each), a blog setup, email hosting, logo design, copywriting, and booking or quote-request forms wired to your inbox or CRM. Ongoing hosting and maintenance starts from R350 per month, covering hosting, SSL, security updates, backups and minor content edits, so your site doesn't quietly rot after launch. All pricing is itemised up front, no hidden costs, and every quote spells out exactly what's included before you sign anything. Websites are typically delivered in two to six weeks depending on scope, with e-commerce and custom builds on the longer end. If a competing agency won't give you a number without a "discovery call" first, that's usually because their real starting price is higher than what they'll say up front.
