What drives web development cost?
Project type and scope have the largest impact: a landing page is a fraction of the cost of a custom web application with authentication, dashboards, and third-party integrations. Custom design from scratch adds roughly 20–35% versus using a template. Multiple integrations (CRM, payments, APIs) and tight timelines also increase cost. Agency location matters—US-based agencies typically charge more than offshore teams but offer closer collaboration and clearer communication.

What affects web development project cost?
Main drivers are project type (landing page vs web app vs e-commerce), scope (small/medium/large), whether design is custom or template-based, number of integrations (CRM, payments, APIs), and timeline. Rushed timelines often add 15–30% to agency quotes.
