How much does a one-page website cost in the UK?

Key takeaways

A one-page website in the UK typically costs £300 to £1,500 from a freelancer, £1,500 to £3,500 from an agency, or £15 to £40 a month on a self-built builder plan. The price depends on copy, design quality and whether forms, booking or tracking are included. A single page suits a new or very focused business, not one with several services.

• Agency one-page site: about £1,500 to £3,500.
• DIY builder: about £15 to £40 a month plus your time.

What is usually included at each price?

What is included rises with price. Cheap one-page sites cover layout and launch only. Mid-priced ones add copywriting and tracking. Agency builds add design for your brand, accessibility checks and testing on phones, which matters because Google indexes the mobile version of a page first.

• £300 to £700: template, your copy, contact form.
• £700 to £1,500: some copywriting, basic SEO, analytics.
• £1,500 to £3,500: custom design, full copy, testing, tracking.

What are the running costs of a one-page site?

Running costs for a one-page site are small but real: a domain at roughly £10 to £20 a year, hosting from a few pounds to about £30 a month, and any builder subscription. If you collect enquiries through a form or use analytics, you also need a cookie banner that follows ICO guidance.

When is a one-page website enough?

A one-page website is enough when you offer one main service, sell to one type of customer, and mostly need the site to confirm you exist and take an enquiry. It is not enough when you want to rank for several services or locations, because one page can only target one main search query well.

When does a one-page site cost you more?

A one-page site costs more over time when the business adds services, because each addition means redesigning the page or rebuilding as a multi-page site. If you expect to grow within a year, a small multi-page site on a platform that can expand may be cheaper overall.

What does this look like in practice?

At Global Bridge Labs (GBL), we see one-page sites work well for new sole traders. A mobile dog groomer launched with a £900 one-page site: services, prices, area covered, reviews and a booking link. It was enough for the first year. When they added a second van and grooming salon, they moved to five pages.
