How much does a website cost by number of pages? 5 to 30 pages in Australia (2026)

On 5 November 2026 we read the published package prices of 25 Australian web designers. The middle price was $2,500 for about 5 pages and $4,525 for about 10 pages. For about 15 pages the middle price was $6,250. For about 20 pages it was $11,750, from only 8 designers. Only 2 of the 25 show a price for a package that reaches 30 pages, and 4 more sell unlimited pages. CatalystHub’s published prices are $500 for a 5-page website and from $1,500 for up to 15 pages. For other sizes our guide prices are about $1,000 for 10 pages, about $1,900 for 20 and about $2,500 for 30, with the exact price fixed in writing before you pay. Larger or unusual projects get a custom quote.

Website prices by number of pages

The middle price (the median) is the one in the middle when the prices are lined up from cheapest to dearest. We haven’t named any of the designers.

Prices are as each designer shows them. Some include GST (the 10% goods and services tax), some add it on top, and some don’t say. Adding 10% to the prices shown without GST moves the 5-page median from $2,500 to $2,750, and the 10-page median from $4,525 to $4,737.50.

Four of the 25 designers sell an unlimited-pages package, priced at $999, $1,499, $3,199 and from $3,500. They aren’t in the 20-page figures above. Counting them, the 20-page median drops to $6,474.50.

Our 10, 20 and 30-page figures are guide prices. Beyond our fixed packages, each newly designed page is roughly $100 up to 15 pages, with a lower price per page above 15. Blog posts and news articles aren’t counted as newly designed pages. The exact price is fixed in writing on the 30-minute call before you pay.

What every CatalystHub website package includes

Our Standard, Advanced Design and Specialist builds all come with:

• Free hosting with no ongoing cost. Your site runs on your own Cloudflare account (Cloudflare is the hosting company), on Cloudflare’s free tier, so there’s nothing to pay each month for hosting.
• A simple editor. Change your words and photos yourself, with no code.
• Basic SEO for Google and AI search. SEO means search engine optimisation: setting the site up so Google and AI search tools can find and understand it.
• GA4 analytics, set up properly. Google Analytics 4, Google’s free tool that shows how many people visit and what they look at.
• You own everything. The code, the domain and the hosting are yours from launch day.
• Unlimited revisions. Nothing goes live until you sign off.
• Live in 7 business days. Our packages are delivered within 7 business days of the kickoff call, and it’s written into the contract.

The Custom Shopify Theme works differently. It’s built on your own Shopify account, so the store, the theme and its content are yours, and it comes with unlimited revisions. Shopify hosts the store on your paid Shopify plan, so hosting isn’t free, and copywriting isn’t included.

Bigger sites over 15 pages get unlimited revisions too. We keep making changes until you’re 100% happy with the final site. Hosting is usually free as well: it’s free on our usual setup (the tools and services the site runs on). For a bigger project we recommend the setup that suits it best, so your quote confirms the hosting cost before you pay.

Need more than 15 pages, or something custom? Tell us about your project and we’ll give you a scoped custom quote. Every package is on our pricing page, or you can start your project now.

How the price moves as you add pages

When the same designer sells both sizes, going from 5 to 10 pages added between $300 and $3,000, with a median of $1,500 (about 63% more). Going from 10 to 15 pages added between $600 and $2,500, with a median of $2,000 (about 50% more).

Price lists also thin out as sites grow. Counting only packages with a set top page count, all 25 designers show a price for one that covers 5 pages, and 23 cover 10 pages. Only 16 cover 15 pages, 6 cover 20 and 2 cover 30. On top of those, 4 designers sell unlimited pages and 4 sell open-ended packages with no top page count. Several send bigger sites to a custom quote instead. The table counts differently: each row takes only packages close to that size, and the 20-page row also counts 2 of the open-ended packages, so its numbers differ.

Who writes the words

Check whether the words are written for you, because it matters more as pages grow. On some packages the designer uploads the words and photos you supply. Others write every page for you. One Sydney agency’s cost article (dated 30 October 2025) says a 10-page website needs 3,000 to 5,000 words at minimum.

How we read these prices

• Who. 25 Australian web designers whose own websites show a price for packages with a stated number of pages. They’re spread across all mainland states and territories.
• When. Every price list was read on 5 November 2026.
• Which package counts. For each row, we took each designer’s cheapest package that covers that many pages without going far past it. For the 10-page row, for example, a package of up to 15 pages counts.
• GST. Recorded as each designer shows it, not adjusted, except where we say so.

These are advertised prices, not what anyone paid, and packages differ in what they include. In our earlier checks, the five-page median was $2,000 across 11 WA designers outside central Perth, read on 3 November 2026 (see our WA web design price audit).
