We read the published prices of Glasgow web designers, monthly-fee website plans and DIY builders so you can see where a fixed £500 site sits. Some options are cheaper up front, some are faster to start, and some are a better fit for bigger projects — here is the honest picture. ### Brightray Up-front price £500 fixed for up to 5 pages; £950 for up to 10 Ongoing cost Optional £25/month care plan (hosting, SSL, backups, small edits), cancel any time Time to go live Around 7 days once your text and photos are ready Who owns it You own the site, the domain and the content outright ### Typical Glasgow agency or studio Up-front price Published small-site starting prices from about £299 (plus a monthly fee) to £1,250; several larger agencies do not publish prices Ongoing cost Hosting or support where published from £65 a year to £395 a month Time to go live From about a week to 8 weeks where stated; one larger agency quotes around 3 months on average Who owns it Varies — some hand the site over outright on final payment; check the contract ### Monthly-fee website plans Up-front price £0–£299 up front Ongoing cost From about £25 to £55/month locally; national plans from about £29 to £99/month Time to go live Typically a few weeks Who owns it Terms vary: some local plans are cancel-any-time, some national plans have 24-month minimum terms, and on some the site is taken down if you cancel ### DIY website builders Up-front price No build fee — you design and write it yourself Ongoing cost Roughly £8–£29/month for the main plans on annual billing; intro offers can be lower and renewals higher Time to go live As quick as you can design and write it Who owns it Your content, but the site runs on the builder's platform while you subscribe Starting prices and terms published on providers' websites, checked 26 October 2026: nine Glasgow web design businesses plus national website builders and monthly-plan providers (one builder's UK prices are from an independent price guide, as its own page did not show them). Ranges are starting prices for a small site, not quotes — your brief may cost more or less anywhere, including here. Brightray hosting is via the optional care plan. What we do ## Websites and an AI voice assistant for small businesses. A website that brings in enquiries, set up for Google and AI search, plus an AI voice assistant (AI receptionist and smart voicemail) that answers the calls you miss.

How much does a website cost in Glasgow?+ It depends who builds it. Published starting prices for a small site from Glasgow web designers ran from about £299 (plus a monthly fee) to £1,250 when we checked in October 2026, and several larger agencies do not publish prices at all. Brightray is a fixed £500 for up to 5 pages or £950 for up to 10, quoted before any work starts. Is a pay-monthly website cheaper than paying once?+ Up front, yes — many plans start at £0. Over time, not always: at £49 a month a plan costs £1,176 over two years, and some plans have a 24-month minimum term or take the site down if you stop paying. A one-off £500 site you own, plus our optional £25/month care plan, comes to £1,100 over the same two years (£800 in the first), and you can cancel the care plan at any time. How quickly can you build my Glasgow website?+ Around 7 days from the point we have your text and photos. Most of the elapsed time on any web project is waiting for content, so we keep the build itself short and send you a preview to check on your own phone before it goes live. Should I just build it myself with a DIY website builder?+ If you enjoy design and have the time, a DIY builder can be a sensible start at roughly £8–£29 a month. If you would rather spend that time running your business, a fixed-price site built for you and set up for local search is usually the better use of money. Do you work with Glasgow charities and community groups?+ Yes — charities, community groups and churches get 20% off, taking a standard site to £400, and the cost can be spread over a monthly Direct Debit rather than paid up front. Do you cover the rest of the west of Scotland?+ Yes. We are based in Bearsden and work right across Glasgow and the west of Scotland, including Milngavie, Clydebank, Paisley, East Kilbride, Hamilton and Cumbernauld. The whole process runs by call, WhatsApp and email, so location is never a barrier. Get in touch ## Let’s build yours. Tell us what you do and what you need — two sentences will do.
