02 Scope shapes

Three common scope shapes for a business website

Most small-business websites in and around Erode fall into one of three shapes. These are illustrations of scope, not client cases. Each shows its starting price before GST; add-ons are charged on top, so a final price is never lower.

  1. Service brochure site — from ₹16,500. A handful of pages — home, about, services, contact — with your own photographs and copy. The work is mostly writing and design; the main variable is whether the content is ready or has to be created.
  2. Enquiry and WhatsApp site — from ₹27,500. The brochure site plus a page per service, an enquiry form that reaches you reliably, WhatsApp buttons that carry the service into the message, Google Business Profile setup and analytics that count enquiries. The extra work is in the enquiry path and in testing that it never drops a message.
  3. Catalogue site — from ₹33,000. Products or styles in categories, a page per product with a WhatsApp “ask about this” button, and an admin screen your staff can update. No checkout. The work grows with the number of products and how often they change.

A store with online payment, delivery and refunds is a fourth shape and is scoped as e-commerce, from ₹38,500. See the full price list.

03 Build vs running

Separate build costs from running costs

Design, development, initial content entry and launch are one-time work unless the proposal states otherwise. Domain renewal, hosting, email and software subscriptions recur. Maintenance pays for agreed updates and support. Monthly SEO or content work is a separate service, and ad spend goes to the advertising platform. Ask for these as separate lines in every quote.

04 The proposal

What a clear proposal should answer

  • Which pages, functions and content are included?
  • Who writes the copy and supplies approved images?
  • Where do enquiries arrive, and who follows them up?
  • Which accounts and code do you own after payment?
  • How are revisions, testing and acceptance handled?
  • Which third-party fees, taxes and support tasks are excluded?

A low quote that omits content, enquiry handling or handover is difficult to compare with one that includes them.

05 Timeline

How long will it take?

The schedule depends on the scope and when approved content, access and feedback are available. A small information site has fewer dependencies than a store or account-based portal. Ask for milestones covering content, design review, build, testing and launch, with responsibilities on both sides. We confirm dates in the proposal rather than promising a universal turnaround.

06 Redesign or rebuild

Redesign or improve the existing website?

If customers understand the services and the content is editable, fixing speed, forms or confusing contact actions may be enough. A rebuild becomes more useful when the current structure cannot support the required workflow or is costly to maintain. A free website review can help decide the next step.

07 Before you ask

Questions before you start

Can you give me a price before a full specification?

Yes. Starting prices are published: a business website from ₹16,500 and a landing page from ₹11,000, before GST. The final written quote adds any add-ons to that base once pages, functions, content responsibilities and exclusions are agreed.

Does paying for a website guarantee Google rankings?

No. A well-built website supports crawling, useful content and a clear customer journey. Search position also depends on relevance, competition and search-engine decisions.

When should a business use custom software instead of Excel?

Consider it when repeated data entry, conflicting versions, access permissions or missing follow-ups create a recurring operational cost. First map that cost and check whether an existing tool meets the need.
