The honest answer to "how much does a website cost" is: it depends, but not on what most people think. The difference between a site for a few hundred and one for a few thousand euros is rarely the design. It is whether the site brings enquiries, who owns it and what it costs you a year later. Here are the items, examples and the maths, for businesses operating in Croatia.

In short
A website is not one cost but several. Some you pay once, some every year, and some only if you don't sort them out at the start.
| Item | What it is | How it is paid |
|---|---|---|
| Build | Structure, design, development, mobile layout, basic SEO, call and enquiry tracking | One-off |
| Domain | The site's address, for example yourbusiness.hr | Yearly, usually a few dozen euros |
| Hosting | The server the site runs on | Monthly or yearly, depending on speed and traffic |
| Content | Copy, translations, photos of real work | One-off, unless you prepare it yourself |
| Maintenance | Updates, security, backups, small changes | Monthly or hourly |
| Growth | SEO, Google profile, ads, analytics | Monthly, if you want a steady flow of enquiries |
In practice almost every enquiry comes down to one of three levels. The prices in the table are ours, excluding VAT, and published in our price list.
| Level | For whom | With us |
|---|---|---|
| An enquiry site in one language, up to seven pages | Trades, salons, repair services, clinics | from €1,290 |
| A bilingual site | Tourism, boating, clients from abroad | from €1,690 |
| A site with booking, or an online shop | Accommodation, restaurants, online sales | By proposal, after an audit |
| A site with a Google profile and social media, as a package | Those who want to be found without doing their own marketing | Foundation: €1,690 + €340 a month |
If you are not registered for VAT, for example as a private holiday rental host, you pay the amount including 25% VAT. A site at €1,290 + VAT then costs you €1,612.50. For such clients we show VAT-inclusive prices up front, on the page for holiday rental hosts.
The price of a website says nothing on its own. What matters is what one new customer is worth to you and how many the site brings. The formula is simple:
customer value over a year × new customers from the web per month × 12 − yearly cost of the site
An average service of €25, a regular client comes eight times a year: €200 a year per client. If the site and Google bring two new regular clients a month, that is €4,800 a year, against a build from €1,290 plus yearly hosting and domain costs.
An average job of €180. Ten more calls in season, six of which become jobs, bring €1,080 a month. The site pays for itself in the first month of the season, provided calls are tracked and you know where they come from.
The examples are made up to illustrate the maths. We calculate your own numbers in a free audit.
We charge the build at a fixed price from a written proposal, never by the hour. You can pay the set-up in two or three instalments, and the Foundation package with nothing upfront. The domain, site and profiles are in your name from day one, and the monthly part can be cancelled with a month's notice. All prices are on the Services page and in our CSV and XML price list.

Because of what is included. A template without copy, tracking or SEO is cheap to build but expensive for the owner, because it brings no enquiries. Compare proposals item by item, not by the total.
Yes. You pay the set-up in two or three instalments, and the Foundation package can start with nothing upfront, over 12 months. See the options.
We set up the site in the Foundation and Growth packages in four to six weeks. The most common delay is content, so it helps to prepare it early.
If some of your customers come from abroad, yes. A guest from Germany searches in German and books where they understand the terms. For a local trade working with domestic customers, one language is enough.
