Pricing

For most business sites, $100 to $300 a month buys managed maintenance: updates applied by a person after testing, daily offsite backups, security monitoring, uptime checks and a monthly report. Plans at $30 to $75 a month are usually automated only, with nobody watching. Stores and lead-generation sites often need the $300 to $800 tier for real developer hours. Mineweb’s plans start at $99/month. See what each tier should include.

Scope, more than software. WordPress itself is free, so the price of a build follows what the site needs: custom design or a template, page count, custom features, e-commerce, integrations, content creation, and performance and SEO work. A template brochure site needs few of those, and a custom store with integrations needs most of them. Mineweb prices that scope as one fixed number after a free scoping call.

About $200 to $1,000 per year. WordPress itself is free; you pay for hosting ($10 to $40 a month), a domain ($15 a year), a premium theme ($60 to $90 one-time) and maybe a builder license like Elementor Pro ($60+ a year). That covers a brochure site. Once the site has to win leads or sales in a competitive market, design, speed and SEO matter more than the software. Compare DIY, freelancer and agency costs.

Maintenance, hosting, plugin licenses and content. Mineweb’s maintenance plans start at $99 a month for updates, backups, security monitoring and uptime checks, and hosting is billed separately. Premium plugins for forms, SEO, caching and backups usually bill yearly, per site. Content is the line item people forget: copy, photography and product data entry cost money or staff time.
