Packages / Starting points

Choose the build that matches the stage of the business.

These starting prices help you understand the usual scale of WS Labs projects. Smaller lean websites can start from $550 when the brief is simple, while premium websites, platforms, SEO and maintenance are scoped around the depth of work required.
