Is 1k for a website about right?

[Millsy 82]

I've had a price of someone suggested to me by a friend of a friend to build me a website and he quoted around £1000.

I've had a couple of cheaper quotes in the past £600-£800 but this bloke explained it a little bit more and said he wouldnt go with building a basic site from the likes of wix.com as the seo is very basic and isn't as good apparently.

Does this sound about right?

Hope not. I’m still doing mine.

Dunno mate. My website brings me plenty of enquiries. Two pages. First is who we are what we do. Second is a contact page.

No. Stupid money.
DM me if you want the name of a proper person.

Did my own about 10 years ago via Bluvoda. Took me a few weeks a couple of hours at a time and I update prices and info every year or so but costs me about £80 a year for hosting and domain. Pays for itself so I'm happy with it.

I did my own years back took ages and looked ok but it was full of glitches etc and didnt get very high up google etc and it's more the seo I am after and without sounding rude 9/10 self made websites you can tell they were not made by a pro.

I want it to look the bees knees and get me high up the search engines (I know I wont compete with the likes of bg and checkatrade so I'm realistic) as this is part of me trying to ditch the bigger jobs.
