How much does a website cost in the UK?

UK website costs depend on the build type and scope. At Apaxon, starter WordPress sites for small businesses begin from £500, custom Next.js builds start at £4,500, e-commerce stores at £5,500, and custom web applications at £8,000. Enterprise builds are quoted from £50,000+ per architecture. Our calculator on this page gives you a transparent project range based on what you actually need.

Do you build with Next.js or WordPress?

Both. We specialise in modern Next.js development for businesses that need speed, scalability and a custom build, and WordPress for projects that benefit from a familiar editor, plugin ecosystem and lower entry cost. We'll recommend the right stack based on your goals, not on what we feel like building.

Can you build a custom web application or SaaS platform?

Yes. Custom web applications — dashboards, member portals, internal tools, booking platforms — are a core part of what we deliver. For multi-tenant SaaS or enterprise architecture, we have a dedicated Enterprise tier with bespoke pricing and an architecture review process.

Do you offer e-commerce website development?

Yes. We build both WooCommerce stores (for WordPress-based shops) and custom checkouts on Next.js for businesses that need bespoke product workflows, B2B pricing tiers, or integration with internal stock systems. E-commerce builds start from £5,500.

How long does it take to build a website?

Most projects take 8–12 weeks from kick-off to launch. WordPress brochure sites can be ready in 4–6 weeks; complex web applications or e-commerce stores typically need 10–16 weeks. We can compress timelines for urgent work, with a clear uplift to cover the parallel resourcing.

Do you provide ongoing maintenance after launch?

Yes — we offer dedicated Care Plans for ongoing site maintenance, updates, security patching, backups and content changes. Ad-hoc development work is also available at £85 per hour. Most clients choose a Care Plan because it includes monitoring, updates and a defined number of monthly change hours.

Can you build custom APIs and integrations?

Yes. We build custom APIs for B2B integrations, headless commerce backends, and connections between your existing systems (CRMs, ERPs, payment providers, marketing platforms). API projects start from £3,500 depending on scope and number of endpoints.
