The honest answer to "how much does a website cost" is not a single number. In the same week you can be quoted 150,000 and 1,500,000 AMD for what sounds like the same job. The gap is rarely about one studio being expensive and another cheap — it is about what the number covers.
Prices by project type
These are market ranges in Yerevan as of 2026. Treat them as orientation, not a price list.
- Landing page — one page built around one action: a call, a form, a purchase. Typically 150,000–400,000 AMD.
- Business-card site — 3–6 pages: services, about, contact. 250,000–600,000 AMD.
- Corporate website — many sections, an admin panel, a blog, several languages. 600,000–1,500,000 AMD.
- Online store — catalogue, cart, online payment, order management. From 1,200,000 AMD upwards.
Website builders (Tilda, Wix) are cheaper to start — 50,000–150,000 AMD to assemble — but the subscription is monthly, and you cannot simply move the site to another server.
What drives the price
Four things decide the number:
- Pages and logic. A five-page site and a five-page site with a calculator and a filter are different jobs.
- Design. A ready-made template costs one thing; a layout drawn from scratch costs another.
- Languages. A second and third language is not only translation — it is separate fields in the admin panel and correct URLs.
- Integrations. A payment provider, a CRM, 1C, a delivery service — each is counted separately.
What is often left out of the quote
When you compare proposals, check these lines. They are what later turns up as an "unexpected" cost:
- Copy. Many studios expect the client to supply the text. Copywriting runs 15,000–40,000 AMD per page.
- Photography. Stock images or a shoot are billed separately.
- Content entry. Typing in 200 products by hand takes hours.
- SEO. The technical base — speed, meta tags, a sitemap — should be included. Ongoing promotion is a separate service.
The costs that repeat every year
A website is not a one-off purchase. Every year you pay again for:
- A .am domain — roughly 12,000–15,000 AMD per year.
- Hosting — 25,000–100,000 AMD per year depending on traffic.
- An SSL certificate — often free (Let's Encrypt), but not always.
- Maintenance — updates, backups, small changes. 20,000–60,000 AMD per month.
If those lines are missing from a proposal, ask about them before the contract, not after.
Why quotes differ so much
When two estimates are three times apart, the reason is almost always the same: they are pricing different work. One covers installing a template and pouring in your text. The other covers design from scratch, three languages, an admin panel and three months of support.
The only way to compare them is a written brief. Ask for the quote to be broken down by line — design, development, content, testing, support. At that point the numbers become comparable.
The next step
If you need an approximate figure today, use the calculator on the home page: pick the type of site and the features you need, and you get a starting estimate. The exact price is always agreed after a short brief, once it is clear what the project actually involves.
