Website cost in Finland 2026: what does a business website cost?
Short answer: a one-page presentation site in Finland typically costs €400–900 + VAT, a multi-page company site €700–2,500 + VAT and a site with online booking €790–2,490. If you build the site yourself with a website builder, published prices start at €7.90/month + VAT. The range is wide because the word website means four different products.
This guide explains what makes up the price, what the options cost in September 2026, what a site costs over three years and where cheap turns expensive. Every figure comes from a public source, and each source is named.
Why does the same question get such different answers?
When a business owner searches for website prices, the numbers run from €300 to €10,000. Nobody is necessarily lying. The question is simply imprecise.
A website can mean four different products:
- A business card page. One page: who you are, what you do, how to reach you.
- A services site. Home, services, price list, references and contact. Four to ten pages.
- A functional site. The above plus online booking, a calculator, an admin panel or several languages.
- An online shop. Products, cart, payments and inventory.
There is a tenfold difference in work between them. So compare like scope, not the number at the bottom of a quote.

If you run a small business and wonder what the site should include, we put that on its own page: small business website. Website builder and WordPress prices are in Wix or WordPress.
What makes up the price of a website?
Five components, not one.
Scope. Page count and functions are the single biggest factor. A one-pager costs a fraction of a ten-page site.
Build method. A ready template is cheaper than a custom build. The difference shows in what you can do with the site later.
Design. A stock theme or a look that fits your business. This is where many economise too hard: a site that looks like a thousand others does not stand out in local search.
Content. Do you write the copy or commission it? Are the photos your own, stock or from a shoot? Content often delays a project more than the development does.
Ongoing costs. Domain, hosting and possibly maintenance. They get their own section below, because they are exactly what people overlook when comparing quotes.
What does a website cost per month?
The one-off price is only part of the cost. These costs continue for as long as the site is online.
| Cost | Price | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Domain | €10–30 a year | Register it in your own name so it stays yours |
| Hosting, e.g. Zoner | €6.90–28.90/month + VAT | €1.00/month in the first year, full price after that |
| Maintenance agreement | typically €35–50/month | Ask whether it covers updates, backups and support |
| Booking software, if separate | €0–48.90/month per calendar (Vello) | Plus transaction and text message fees |
| Static site | hosting €0/month | No database and no plugins to update |
Sources: zoner.fi and vello.fi (26 and 20 September 2026), WebFin (6/2026). We compared booking software prices separately on the booking systems compared page.
A WordPress site needs hosting and regular updates. A static site, which is what we build, runs without a database, so basic hosting is €0/month and the only required ongoing cost is the domain. Our technical maintenance at €45/month is optional.
One-off, monthly plan or website builder: what do three years cost?
A monthly price says little on its own, so we worked out the three-year total at published prices. The comparison covers three models: you build it yourself with a website builder, you pay a monthly fee for a site, or you pay once.
| Option | How it adds up | Three years | Online booking |
|---|---|---|---|
| Webnode Standard, you build it | 36 × €7.90 | €284.40 + VAT | not mentioned in price list |
| Kotisivukone for businesses, you build it | 36 × €22.20 | €799.20 incl. VAT | not mentioned in price list |
| Wix Core, you build it | 36 × $29 | $1,044 + taxes | included |
| Monthly-plan site, e.g. Makkee | €349 + 36 × €49 | €2,113 | no information |
| ProfitSite Business, one-off | €1,290 + domain | €1,320–1,380 incl. VAT | included |
Prices from the providers' sites on 26 September 2026. Wix shows USD reference prices, and the final price varies by country. Makkee's monthly price includes hosting, SSL and updates, with a one-month notice period.
To be straight about it: if you build the site yourself, a website builder is the cheapest over three years. But the table does not include your own time, and the price lists in the first two rows do not mention booking. A monthly-plan site is a good choice when there is no large sum up front, but always ask who keeps the site if you stop paying. Wix states plainly in its help centre that a Wix site cannot be moved to another host.
When does cheap turn expensive?
From €299 is not a lie, but it is an entry level. The typical points where the price grows:
Page count. The base price covers one page, but you need four or six: services, price list, references and contact.
Search optimisation. Without it the site exists but nobody finds it. According to Statistics Finland, 84% of Finns look for information about products or services online (Tilastokeskus, 2025). A site that does not show up in search leaves that unused.
Edit rights. Can you change prices and opening hours yourself, or is every change an invoice? Ask before the contract, not after.
Mobile. Most local search happens on a phone. If the site is not fast on mobile, nothing else matters.
When is booking worth paying for separately?
If your clients book appointments, for example at a barbershop, beauty salon, massage therapist, dentist, vet or auto repair shop, booking is not an add-on feature. It is the whole point of the site.
One figure worth knowing: Timma reports that over half of all bookings are made outside normal working hours. If your only booking method is a phone during opening hours, half the demand never reaches you.
There are two options: separate booking software on a monthly fee, or booking built into the site for a one-off price. Which pays off depends on where your clients come from. We compared both separately.
Example: what do our sites cost?
We state our own prices with the same precision as everyone else's. All prices include VAT 25.5%, basic hosting is €0/month and the site's code is handed over to you.
| Package | Price | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | €790 | A ready-made template styled for your business, one language and a contact form |
| Business | €1,290 | Custom design, Finnish, English and Russian, online booking and admin panel |
| Premium | €2,490 | Fully bespoke design, search optimisation, 2 h training and 3 months of support |
Add-ons such as a chatbot, calculator, online shop and migration from a website builder are priced separately on the add-on services page.
How do you compare quotes properly?
Four questions worth asking every provider in the same words:
- How many pages does the price include, and what does an extra page cost?
- What are the monthly costs after the first year?
- Who owns the domain and the site's content?
- Can I edit the copy and prices myself?
The fourth question separates quotes surprisingly well. A transparent price showing both the one-off and the monthly costs always beats the lowest number with no explanation.

What makes up the price of a website?
Five components: scope, meaning page count and functions; build method; design; content; and ongoing costs. Scope is the biggest single factor: a one-pager costs a fraction of a ten-page site.
Why do website prices range from €300 to €10,000?
Because the word website covers four different products: a business card page, a services site, a functional site with booking or a calculator, and an online shop. There is a tenfold difference in work between them, so always compare like scope.
When does a cheap site turn expensive?
When the from-price means one page and you need six, when there is no search optimisation and the site never shows up in Google, and when you cannot edit content yourself so every price change is an invoice. A transparent price showing both one-off and monthly costs beats the lowest number with no explanation.
