How much should a web design agency charge? This is a dreaded question for every website design agency. It’s not because they’re trying to be deceitful, at least not most, but it’s a very hard question to answer. Typically when an inquiry comes in, a brief and the direction a client would like to take is sparse. It makes it hard to judge what the scope of work is and what the final deliverables are, therefore making it difficult to price the job.

To battle this and build trust with all prospective clients, our consultants try and get as much information from the client as possible, especially a list of reference websites if it’s a brand new website, and provide a pricing range to ensure there are no surprises later. If the range fits, we go ahead and do a deep dive into the client’s needs and what perfectly fits those needs. If a client comes in with a budget, we can help them work backwards on what’s the best we can possibly do for them within that budget. It’s possible for there to be a gap between the need and what's desired, so we guide the client in the right direction ensuring they don’t spend on something they don’t need.

It’s most important to have tangible goals and targets in place, ideally with budgets as well. This helps ensure the website design agencies you are getting quotes from have all the pertinent information to put together an educated proposal. Blindly price hunting in the market will get you varied quotes without helping you benchmark what you should be spending on your website development project with potential web designers in Dubai.
