How Much Does a Website Cost in Singapore in 2026?
Quick answer
In 2026, a 5-page business website in Singapore typically costs S$3,000–S$8,000 from an agency and S$1,000–S$3,000 from a freelancer, while custom-designed sites start around S$6,000 (ChillyBin, GoDaddy). Ongoing costs add S$1,200–S$6,000 a year. Government grant support changes on 30 September 2026, when the PSG is replaced by the EDGE Grant. BunkWise's packages for Singapore businesses start at S$1,299.
Singapore's web design market is compact and competitive, and prices are shaped by one factor most other countries don't have: government co-funding. For years, SMEs could claim up to half the cost of a pre-approved digital package. That scheme is changing as this guide is published, so it is worth understanding both the underlying prices and how grants fit in.
Singapore website prices by provider
| Provider | Small business site | Hourly rate |
|---|---|---|
| DIY builder | S$150–S$800 (first year) | – |
| Offshore freelancer | varies | S$15–S$50 |
| Local freelancer | S$1,000–S$3,000 | S$50–S$150 |
| Boutique or small agency | S$2,500–S$6,000 | S$100–S$250 |
| Large agency or consultancy | up to S$50,000+ | S$200–S$400 |
Sources: GoDaddy Asia (project prices, updated December 2025) and ChillyBin (hourly rates, May 2026). GoDaddy notes that a typical agency-built small business site costs about S$6,000.
Prices by type of website
ChillyBin's 2026 guide breaks prices down by build approach:
- Basic one-page site: S$1,500–S$2,500
- 5-page website: S$3,000–S$8,000
- Templated WordPress site: S$4,000–S$6,000
- Custom-designed site: S$6,000–S$12,000+
- E-commerce or membership site: S$10,000–S$25,000+
Digimau gives a wider brochure-site range of S$3,000–S$10,000 for 5–10 pages and S$5,000–S$35,000 for e-commerce, and puts established agencies at S$150–S$350 or more an hour. GoDaddy's figures for e-commerce are S$3,000–S$10,000 from a freelancer and S$6,000–S$20,000+ from an agency.
Which option suits which Singapore business
The published ranges map fairly neatly onto different kinds of business:
- A new sole proprietorship or a single F&B outlet that mainly needs opening hours, a menu and a map can start with a DIY builder (S$150–S$800 in the first year) or a freelancer (S$1,000–S$3,000).
- A professional services firm, such as an accountancy, law or consulting practice that wants enquiries from search, is usually better served by a boutique agency (S$2,500–S$6,000) or a custom build (S$6,000–S$12,000+), because the work is in the content and search structure rather than the look.
- A clinic or tuition centre with several services and locations needs a page per service and per outlet, which pushes it towards the 5–10 page range of S$3,000–S$10,000 that Digimau gives.
- An online shop should budget S$10,000–S$25,000+ for a custom build (ChillyBin), or start on a hosted e-commerce platform and customise later.
Grants, GST and PDPA in Singapore
The PSG ends and the EDGE Grant begins
According to Enterprise Singapore, the Productivity Solutions Grant, which co-funded up to 50% of pre-approved digital solutions, ceases on 29 September 2026. From 30 September, businesses apply for support under the new EDGE Grant instead. Under the PSG, only solutions and vendors on the pre-approved list qualified, and quotes had to match the approved package exactly.
If grant support matters to your budget, check on the Business Grants Portal whether your website project qualifies under EDGE, and which vendors are eligible, before you sign or pay anything. A grant-supported package from an eligible local vendor can end up cheaper than any unsupported quote, including an overseas one.
GST at 9%
Singapore's GST rate has been 9% since 1 January 2024. GST-registered agencies add it to their quotes; smaller freelancers below the registration threshold may not. For a GST-registered business, the tax is normally claimable, but for a small unregistered company it is a real 9% difference.
PDPA: forms and consent
Any Singapore website that collects names, emails or phone numbers through a form is collecting personal data under the Personal Data Protection Act. In practice, that means a clear privacy notice explaining why you collect the data, consent wording on enquiry forms, and sensible security for where submissions are stored. A designer building for Singapore should set these up by default.
Running costs after launch
- Domain: about S$10–S$20 a year for a .com, S$30 for a .sg (GoDaddy); Digimau puts a .com.sg at S$30–S$60
- Hosting: S$100–S$500 a year for shared hosting, S$800+ for managed or cloud hosting
- Maintenance and support: S$50–S$300 a month
- Copywriting: S$100–S$300 a page (GoDaddy); S$200–S$600 a page according to Digimau
- SEO: S$500–S$3,000 to set up, then S$300–S$2,000 a month (GoDaddy)
ChillyBin puts the total at S$1,200–S$6,000 a year on top of the build, whichever route you take.
How to compare Singapore quotes
- Check whether GST is included, and whether the provider is GST-registered.
- If you plan to use a grant, confirm the vendor and package are eligible before committing.
- Ask for a written page list and whether the price is fixed.
- Check that the .sg or .com domain is registered to your company.
- Ask how forms, consent and data storage will be handled under the PDPA.
- Ask what yearly hosting and maintenance will cost from year two.
Working with a designer in India from Singapore
Singapore is 2.5 hours ahead of India, so the working days overlap for most of the afternoon in Singapore. A morning review in Singapore can have changes back the same day, and calls are easy to schedule. ChillyBin lists offshore freelancers at S$15–S$50 an hour, but the lowest rates usually mean templates and little strategy.
The points to check are the same anywhere: live work you can open, a written scope, milestone payments, and all accounts in your company's name. An overseas vendor will usually not be eligible for Singapore grants. Our guide to hiring a web designer from India covers vetting and contracts.
