For a small business site of five to eight pages, built properly and accessible, budgets usually start around 6,000 euros. A multilingual site with a blog and structured content sits between 12,000 and 25,000. An e-commerce build with two markets, two currencies and system integrations starts around 20,000 and rises with the complexity of your catalogue and logistics. Anyone quoting before seeing your content, your languages and your systems is guessing. We quote after a first conversation and a look at what exists.

Six to ten weeks for a business site, three to five months for e-commerce. The design and development are rarely what delays a project. Content is. Photography, product descriptions, legal pages and translations are the parts that depend on you, so we agree the content plan at the start and work in parallel rather than waiting.

Look at the numbers before deciding. If visitors arrive and leave within seconds, or never reach the contact form, the problem is the site. If almost nobody arrives, the problem is visibility, and rebuilding will not solve it. If the structure is sound and only the design has aged, a redesign on the existing build costs a fraction of a rebuild. We tell you which of the three you are in, even when it means a smaller project for us.

Since 28 June 2025, e-commerce sites, banking, transport, telecoms and e-book services sold to European consumers must be usable by people with disabilities, following WCAG 2.1 AA as a minimum. In practice: full keyboard navigation, sufficient colour contrast, form fields with proper labels and clear error messages, alternative text on images, a logical heading structure, captions on video, and an accessibility statement on the site. Micro-enterprises under ten employees are exempt from some obligations, though not from the goodwill of being usable. Austria and Germany both enforce through national law, with fines and formal complaints as the consequence. We audit, remediate and document.

Not by translating pages. Each language gets its own keyword research, because the words people search are rarely the words a translator would choose, and search intent differs between the two markets. Then the technical side: separate URLs per language, correct hreflang markup, local structured data, and a Google Business Profile in each country. Then content written in that language by someone who works in it. A translated site competes with sites written natively, and loses.

Partly, and it is worth doing now while few competitors bother. Assistants like ChatGPT and Gemini cite sources that answer questions directly, in clear structure, with the reasoning visible. Practically: pages built around real questions, Schema.org markup so machines can parse the answer, consistent business information everywhere the brand appears, and mentions on sites the models already trust. Nobody can promise a citation, in the same way nobody could ever promise a first position. What we can do is make your content the easiest correct answer to find.

Both. Catalogue structure, product pages, checkout, payment and shipping rules, tax settings for cross-border selling, and integration with your stock system or ERP where an interface exists. What we do not do is run your warehouse or your customer service, though we will set up the automated messages that make both lighter.

You do, all of it. Domain, hosting, CMS, analytics, ad accounts, CRM: registered in your name, with your team holding administrator access from the first day, not the last. At handover you receive documentation and a training session. If you later choose another agency, they inherit a working system and no hostage.
