Quick answer

A simple business website in Malaysia can start from around RM1,500. A business website of 6 to 20 pages is around RM2,500 to RM5,000, and a big or fully custom one can go up to RM30,000 or more. Then every year you also pay for your domain and hosting.

Why the price is so different

You ask three people and get three prices: RM800, RM3,000, RM15,000. Confusing, right?

It's like asking “how much is a car?” A Kancil and a BMW are both cars. A website is the same. The price depends on what you need it to do.

Usually the price goes up when you need:

More pages
More special effects and design work
Things like booking, online payment or a member login
Copywriting, photos and SEO set up properly

My prices, so you have a real example

I'd rather show you real numbers than say “depends” and run away. 😄

Starter Landing Page

RM1,500

1 page. One clear goal. Good for startups and Google Ads.

Business Website

RM2,500 to RM5,000

6 to 20 pages. Room to explain your company and services properly.

Signature Website

RM5,000 to RM30,000+

Up to 100 pages, advanced design, functions and integrations.

The same business website on a laptop, a tablet and a phone — One website, every screen: your customers will see it on their phone first.

Most websites are done in 1 to 3 weeks, and I give you a video guide so you can update simple things yourself.

The yearly cost people forget

After the website is built, two things need to stay active every year:

Domain name: your website name, like a car plate. For example, a .com.my is RM80 a year.
Hosting: what keeps your website online, like car insurance. My Premium hosting is RM350 a year.

Website + domain + hosting. Know all three before you say yes to any quotation.

Is a cheap website a bad idea?

Not always. But be careful when the price is very low. Ask:

Is the domain registered under my name?
Can I update the website myself?
What happens if I need help after launch?
Are there extra charges later?

Lucian's tip

Don't automatically choose the cheapest. Don't assume the most expensive is the best. Look for good work, good value and a reasonable price. No “eh, that one extra ah” later.
