- How much does a small business website cost in 2026?
- For a professional custom-designed 5-page website, expect $500 to $15,000 depending on where you buy it. Fiverr templates start at $500 but limit ownership. Traditional agencies charge $8,000–15,000 for the same scope. Zebra's flat-rate offer sits between those extremes: from €499 in Germany, CHF 999 in Switzerland, or $1,000–1,500 in North America and Australia. Everything included — design, development, hosting for a year, SSL, mobile-first, SEO basics.
- Are there hidden fees?
- No. The price you see is the price you pay. Domain (if you don't own one) is billed separately at cost. Extras like a second language, e-commerce, or booking integration are quoted transparently before we start — never surprises after launch.
- Why is Zebra cheaper than a local agency?
- We keep overhead low: no expensive metro offices, distributed team across Prishtina, Frankfurt and Malmö, and we standardize on modern tools (Figma, Next.js, headless CMS). Same craft as a $12,000 agency build — we just don't pass boutique-agency overhead to your invoice.
- Do I own the website after paying?
- Yes, fully. Source code, design files, hosting keys all handed over on request. No lock-in like Wix, Squarespace or Shopify — those platforms rent you a template and hold your data. With Zebra you own everything.
- What about ongoing support?
- 3 months of minor updates included after launch. After that, hourly on-demand ($90/CHF 90/€90 depending on market) or an optional maintenance retainer. Never mandatory — most clients call us twice a year.
- Can I pay in installments?
- Yes. 50% to start, 50% on launch is our default. Longer payment plans available for larger scopes (multi-language, e-commerce) — no interest, no extra fees.
