How Much Does a Website Cost in 2026? Prices and What Each Option Includes

In Spain, a basic landing page (a short website of 1 to 3 pages, built on an adapted template) costs between €500 and €1,200 in 2026, and a basic corporate website of 4 to 8 pages between €800 and €2,500. Those are the figures in the price guide from Cronoshare, a platform that collects the quotes professionals send to its users, updated on 5 January 2026. With us, a one-page landing page costs €450; a corporate website of up to 5 pages, €900; and the corporate website with SEO (the work that gets your business showing up on Google), €1,150, IGIC included (the tax paid in the Canary Islands instead of VAT).

In this article we explain where such a big price difference comes from, what the price should include, how much it costs to maintain a website each month and how to compare quotes so the 3-year total doesn't give you a nasty surprise.

Website prices in Spain in 2026

These are the ranges Cronoshare publishes for each type of website. The platform itself warns that these are indicative prices that don't take periodic market changes into account, but they show you roughly where each option sits:

The ranges are wide because very different projects fit into each type. What moves the price within them is what we explain next.

Why one website costs so much more than another

The difference comes mainly from the hours of work each website takes, and these are the things that change them most:

1. The number of pages. A landing page, built so people call you or book with you, takes less work than a website with service pages, a gallery of your work and a blog. If you're torn between the two, we help you decide in landing page or corporate website: which does your business need.
2. Template or custom design. A template is a ready-made design that gets filled with your text and photos, and it saves hours; a custom design is built for your business from scratch. We always build custom websites, and they still come at a fixed price.
3. Extra features. A booking system, online payments or a private area for your customers push the budget up, because each one has to be coded and tested.
4. Languages. In Cronoshare's guide, each additional language is quoted separately, at €1,000–3,000. In our packs, two languages are included.
5. Text and photos. If you provide them, you save that part; if they need writing, the same guide puts copywriting for the main pages at €500–2,000.
6. SEO, which is the work that gets your business showing up on Google when someone searches for what you do. Getting the website ready for Google to understand it is one part, and working every month to rank ahead of your competitors is another. Cronoshare puts basic SEO (keywords, titles and site structure) at €400–1,200. We explain it in what SEO is and what it's for.

What the price of your website should include

More than the price itself, it pays to compare what goes into it. A business website in 2026 should:

• Load fast on mobile. According to Google data from 2016, 53% of mobile visits are abandoned if a page takes longer than 3 seconds to load.
• Look good on mobile, tablet and desktop.
• Be ready for Google from the code up, with each page explaining what you do and where.
• Be in two languages if you work with tourists or customers from abroad.
• Include the legal pages: legal notice, privacy and cookies.
• Include the domain, hosting and security certificate, or tell you what they cost separately. The domain is your address on the internet (yourbusiness.com), hosting is the server where the website lives and the certificate is the padlock you see next to the address.
• Make it easy to contact you, with a WhatsApp button, a form and buttons that say what to do: call, book or ask for a quote.

If your current website is built with WordPress and loads slowly, we explain what usually happens and how to fix it in the most common causes of a slow WordPress website.

How much it costs to maintain a website

On top of the price of the website comes maintenance, which is what you pay to keep it online and up to date. According to Cronoshare's website maintenance price guide, also from January 2026, the most common option in Spain is a flat fee of €50–150 a month; paid yearly, it most commonly goes over €600, and by the hour, it usually costs €25–50 an hour.

Our maintenance costs €19 a month or €180 a year, with no minimum term. It includes hosting, domain renewal, backups and small changes, such as changing a text or a photo. Bigger changes, such as a new section or page, are quoted separately at €40 an hour, and we send you the quote before we start. If you ever stop the maintenance, we give you the website so you can host it wherever you like.

Our websites don't use plugins, which are add-ons from other companies that need regular updates, so each month's work focuses on hosting, the domain, backups and the changes you ask for.

Do the maths over 3 years

The upfront price is only part of what you pay. To compare two quotes, add up what the website costs and what you'll pay for maintenance over 3 years. Let's say you're offered a corporate website for €800, the bottom of Cronoshare's range, with maintenance at €100 a month, within what the same platform considers typical:

In this example, the website that looked cheaper ends up costing almost three times as much after 3 years. Before comparing, also check what each fee includes: some maintenance plans include several hours of work a month and others only cover hosting.

What to check before accepting a quote

A low price is good news when it includes what you need. Before you sign, check these things:

• That the code is yours once you've paid, so you can switch providers and take your website with you. We explain it in who owns your website's code.
• That the domain is in your name or that you can take it with you, because it's your business's address on the internet. If whoever builds your website registers it in their name to manage it, as we do, they should commit in writing to transferring it to you when you ask or if you leave.
• That you can stop the maintenance whenever you want, or that any minimum term and what you'd pay to end it early are in writing.
• That you know which changes the fee covers and what the others cost before you ask for them.
• That the quote says what it includes: domain, hosting, legal pages, mobile adaptation and how many rounds of revisions.
• That you can see previous work and open it on your phone to check how it loads.

An example with a fixed price: what it costs with us

To give you a concrete reference, these are our prices. We're a web design and local SEO studio based in Tenerife, and we code every website from scratch, without templates, so it loads fast on mobile and Google understands what your business does and where.

Timelines count from when we have your text and photos. All three packs include custom design, two languages, domain, hosting, security certificate, legal pages and 2 months of maintenance. After that, maintenance costs €19 a month, and in the SEO pack, SEO continues at €200 a month until you cancel it. We register, renew and manage the domain ourselves, so you don't have to worry about it, and if you ever leave, we transfer it to you. The code is yours from delivery.

You can also pay for the website in instalments, from 6 to 12 payments, with a 40% surcharge on its price; in that case, the code becomes yours once you've finished paying. If you need something that isn't in the packs, such as a booking system or a custom feature, we send you a quote before we start.

And before you pay, we build you a free demo of your website so you can see it on your phone: if you like it, we finish it, and if you'd rather leave it, you owe us nothing.

The website we built for Pollo Frito Chino, a fried chicken buffet in La Laguna, scores over 90 out of 100 for mobile speed and 100 for SEO in Lighthouse, Google's tool that scores a website's speed and other aspects from 0 to 100 (measured in September 2026). Demoliciones Tenerife, with a new website built by us, reached #4 on Google for “demoliciones tenerife” in under 4 months (September 2026), ahead of companies with more than 30 years in the business; we tell the story in the Demoliciones Tenerife case study. We've built websites for a hair salon, a tattoo studio, a restaurant in La Laguna and a demolition company on the island, and for a bakery and a restaurant in Mataró. You can see them in our web design portfolio.

What about Tenerife and the Canary Islands?

In the Canary Islands, IGIC (the Canary Islands' general indirect tax) applies instead of VAT, with a general rate of 7%; on the mainland, the general VAT rate is 21%. So when you compare quotes, check whether the price includes tax or whether it's added at the end: a €1,000 quote “plus IGIC” comes to €1,070, and a €1,000 quote “plus VAT”, to €1,210.

Our prices include IGIC, so a corporate website costs €900 and that's what you pay. You'll find all our web design prices in Tenerife, with what each pack includes, on our services page. If you want to add SEO or maintenance, you can work out the price of your website instantly.

We work from Tenerife for the whole of Spain. If your business is on the island, we come to see you, and with the rest of the Canary Islands and Spain we work remotely, by WhatsApp, phone, email or video call.

In short

In Spain, in 2026, a basic landing page costs between €500 and €1,200 and a basic corporate website between €800 and €2,500, according to Cronoshare. With us, the landing page costs €450 and the corporate website €900, IGIC included. Before deciding, add 3 years of maintenance, check that the code ends up being yours and that the domain is in your name or will be transferred to you if you leave, and ask to see the website on your phone before you pay.
