What a website really costs each year and each month

Build price is only part of it. Here are the running costs of a business website, from the domain to monthly care, so you can plan a real budget.

Most quotes only show the price to build the site. A site also has running costs, and knowing them up front avoids surprises after launch. These are the ranges we give our own customers; exact prices depend on the provider and the size of the system.

The one-off cost: building the site

  • Landing page (one page): ฿4,500

  • Company website, up to 5 pages: ฿9,900

  • Online booking system: ฿15,900

  • Online store: ฿19,900

  • LINE Chatbot / AI system: ฿15,900

  • Custom business system: from ฿30,000

Running costs

  • Domain (.com or .co.th): about ฿400–1,000 a year. Every site needs one.

  • Hosting: free to about ฿300 a month for landing pages and company sites.

  • Server and database: about ฿300–1,500 a month for booking systems, stores and business systems, which store data and run all the time.

  • AI usage: paid by actual use, for chatbots and document reading.

  • Monthly care (optional): ฿1,500 a month for updates, fixes and checks.

Costs paid to other providers

Payment gateway fees, AI usage and paid LINE OA plans are billed by those companies directly, not by the web studio. Ask for them to be listed before you start.

How to budget

Add the build price to twelve months of running costs. A company website, for example, is ฿9,900 plus a domain and, for many sites, free hosting. A booking system is ฿15,900 plus a domain and a server. We list every running cost in writing before work starts, so you know the full number.
