How much does a website cost in Ireland in 2026?

A one page landing site typically starts around €900 to €1,800. A small business website with 5 to 8 pages usually falls between €2,000 and €5,000. A custom ecommerce store starts around €4,500 and can rise to €12,000+ depending on catalogue size, payments and integrations.

How much is a website in Dublin?

Dublin pricing sits slightly above the national average because most agencies are based there. Expect €2,500 to €6,000 for a professional small business site and €5,000+ for ecommerce. Sitefully is based in Dublin and quotes to the same range without inflating for location.

Is a template website cheaper than a custom build?

Upfront yes, over three years usually not. Templates carry monthly platform fees, plugin costs and slower performance that hurts SEO. A bespoke build has a higher day one price but no per user platform fees, faster load times and a design that is yours, not shared with thousands of other sites.

What ongoing costs come with a website?

Plan for hosting (€10 to €40 per month for a business site), a domain (€15 to €25 per year), SSL (usually free), SEO work if you want to rank, and maintenance for updates, backups and security patches. Sitefully bundles hosting, SSL and standard maintenance into one flat monthly fee.

Can I use the Trading Online Voucher to reduce the cost?

No. The Trading Online Voucher closed for new applications on 13 December 2024. It was replaced by the Grow Digital Voucher, up to €5,000 at 50%, which focuses on digital tools for running a business. Your Local Enterprise Office decides what qualifies.

Website design cost in Ireland
what you actually pay in 2026

Honest, current pricing for websites built in Ireland. Landing pages, small business sites, ecommerce and custom software, plus the hosting, SEO and maintenance costs most agencies leave out of the quote.

"How much does a website cost in Ireland?" is the first question every business owner asks, and the hardest to get a straight answer to. Prices vary wildly because a "website" can mean a one page brochure or a full ecommerce platform, and every agency scopes differently.

This guide gives real Irish market ranges for 2026, explains why bespoke design usually beats a template over three years, and lays out the ongoing costs (hosting, SEO, maintenance) that shape total cost of ownership.

Bespoke vs template

Why cheapest upfront isn't cheapest over three years

Squarespace, Wix and Shopify look inexpensive on day one. Over three years, monthly platform fees, paid plugins and per user seats add up, and shared templates hold your ranking back because thousands of other Irish sites share the same code, layout and page speed profile.

A bespoke Sitefully build has a higher day one price but no per user platform fees, no plugin subscriptions, faster Core Web Vitals (which Google rewards), and a design nobody else on the internet has. Over 24 to 36 months the total cost usually lands lower, and the site performs better.

We build every project from scratch. No page builders, no drag and drop templates. That's the only way to guarantee the site loads fast, ranks in Ireland, and reflects your brand rather than a marketplace theme.

Total cost of ownership

The ongoing costs no one tells you about

The build price is only part of the picture. Here's what actually runs a professional website in Ireland month to month.

Hosting

€10 – €40 per month for a business site. Sitefully clients get hosting bundled into their monthly plan.

SEO

One off on page SEO is included in most builds. Ongoing SEO (content, backlinks, tracking) is optional and quoted separately.

Maintenance & support

Backups, security patches, small content changes and uptime monitoring. Sitefully bundles this into a flat monthly fee.

What about the LEO website grant?

The Trading Online Voucher closed in December 2024. Its replacement, the Grow Digital Voucher, covers up to €5,000 at 50% but focuses on digital tools for running the business rather than a basic website. Your Local Enterprise Office decides what qualifies.
