Pricing questions

What you pay, what you get and how payment works.

Rusted Web publishes prices so you can plan your budget before you contact us. Most agencies hide prices behind a call. Our prices are starting points for a typical small-business job, and you always get a fixed written quote before any work begins, so the final number never changes without your approval.

Website builds are once-off, while hosting, Care Plans, SEO and Google Ads management are monthly. A Business website costs from R12 500 once-off, and most clients add hosting from R199 a month or a Care Plan from R449 a month so the site stays fast, safe and up to date.

Yes, the monthly website plan costs from R849 a month with nothing upfront and a 12-month minimum term. It includes a Starter website of up to 3 pages, hosting and the Care Plan. After 12 months you can stay month-to-month, or pay a once-off buy-out to take full ownership of the site.

Your quote goes up if you need more pages, custom features or content written for you. Common extras are booking systems, more than 50 products, multiple languages, integrations with accounting or CRM software, and copywriting. We list every extra in your written quote, so you can remove anything you do not need.

Most South African small businesses should budget R3 000 to R10 000 a month in ad spend, paid directly to Google. Below about R2 000 a month there is rarely enough data to learn what works. Rusted Web management costs from R2 950 a month on top of that, with a once-off setup from R2 500.

No, monthly services run month-to-month with 30 days notice, except the monthly website plan, which has a 12-month minimum. You own your website and domain once the build is paid, and if you move to another provider we hand over your files and logins at no charge.

Yes, the Launch Bundle combines a Business website, Google Business Profile setup and three months of the Care Plan for R13 950, a saving of about R1 850. Clients who take SEO or Google Ads management for six months or more also get the campaign setup fee waived.

A Next.js marketing website of up to 8 pages costs from R16 500 once-off, and a web app, client portal or dashboard from R45 000. These cost more than WordPress because they are custom-coded. You get a fixed written quote first. See React and Next.js websites for what is included.

Next.js and app hosting costs from R750 a month, covering deployment, monitoring, backups and support. Vercel and Supabase charge their own fees on accounts in your name, typically about US$45 a month combined, roughly R830 at R18.50 to the dollar. Details are on our Next.js and app hosting page.
