Apxpro — Website Development & Digital Marketing
The Most Honest Page on This Website — Affordable Website Development in India
If you've been searching 'affordable website development India' or 'best website lowest price,' you've probably already seen a range of prices that makes no sense. Freelancers on Fiverr offering a website for ₹999. Agencies quoting ₹1,50,000 for the same thing. Website builders advertising 'free' plans that turn out to cost ₹18,000 a year. This page gives you a clear picture of what things actually cost, why prices vary, and where Apxpro sits in that landscape.
What a Website Actually Costs in India in 2026 — Honest Breakdown by Option
DIY website builders (Wix, Squarespace, Hostinger Website Builder): ₹0–18,000/year. The monthly plans look cheap until you add up a year. The free tier puts the builder's own branding on your site. The 'business' tier needed for removing that branding and accepting payments typically runs ₹1,200–1,500 per month. You also do all the work yourself — design, content, setup, updates.
Freelancers: ₹3,000–25,000 one-time. The range is huge because the quality range is huge. The bigger hidden cost with freelancers isn't the build — it's the after. Who renews your hosting? Who fixes it when something breaks? What if your freelancer is unreachable when you need them?
Small agencies (like Apxpro): ₹6,999–25,000 one-time. This tier is where you get both the build quality and the ongoing accountability. The price is higher than a cheap freelancer because you're paying for a team, not one person, and for support after launch.
Large agencies: ₹50,000–2,00,000+. Makes sense for large e-commerce stores, enterprise applications, or businesses that genuinely need 50+ pages with complex integrations. Most small and medium Indian businesses are overpaying if they're in this tier for a basic corporate website.
Why Apxpro's Pricing is Genuinely Competitive — The Maths
Our Basic Plan is ₹6,999 all-inclusive. Here's what that price has to cover if you buy each component separately:
- Domain registration (1 year): ₹800–1,200
- Web hosting (1 year, decent quality): ₹2,500–4,000
- 5 business email accounts (1 year): ₹1,500–3,000
- Social media page setup (professional): ₹1,000–2,000
- Basic website build (5 pages): ₹5,000–15,000 from a freelancer
Total if bought separately: ₹10,800–25,200 — for the same components included in our ₹6,999 plan. We're able to offer this price because we've built efficient processes, we don't carry the overhead of a large agency, and we do volume.
What You're Actually Comparing When You Compare Prices
When you get three quotes from different providers and they range from ₹3,000 to ₹75,000, the natural reaction is to assume the ₹3,000 one is a scam and the ₹75,000 one must be the best. Usually neither is true. Here are the real questions to ask:
- Is hosting included or extra? (A '3,000 website' that needs ₹6,000/year hosting isn't ₹3,000)
- Who owns the domain name after the project? (It must be registered in your name)
- Is basic SEO setup included, or is ranking for anything an extra?
- What happens after launch — who supports it?
- Can I see 2–3 real websites they've built? (Not mockups — live URLs)
- What does year two cost? (Free first year is fine — what about renewal?)
Who Our Pricing is Right For
Our plans work best for small and medium businesses across India that need a professional, properly-built website and don't want to gamble on a cheap freelancer or overpay for agency overhead they don't need.
Specifically: first-time website buyers replacing a word-of-mouth-only or JustDial-only approach, businesses replacing a broken or outdated site, growing businesses that need more than a basic landing page but don't need a 50-page enterprise system.
If you're an enterprise, a large e-commerce brand with thousands of SKUs, or need complex custom software integrated into your website, we'll tell you upfront if you need a larger team than ours. We'd rather lose a project that doesn't fit than take it and deliver something that doesn't work for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in your ₹6,999 Basic Plan?
5-page custom website, responsive design (mobile-friendly), basic SEO setup (titles, meta descriptions, image alt text, sitemap), contact form, WhatsApp button, social media links, 1-year hosting, 1-year domain registration in your name, 5 business email accounts, and social media page creation.
What does year two cost?
Year two costs cover domain renewal (typically ₹800–1,200) and hosting renewal (typically ₹2,500–4,000). The website itself is yours permanently — you don't pay to 'renew' the build, only the infrastructure it runs on. We send reminders well before anything expires.
Is this really cheaper than Wix or Squarespace?
After 2–3 years, yes — significantly. Wix/Squarespace business plans run ₹12,000–18,000/year indefinitely, and you never own anything. Our ₹6,999 plan is a one-time payment for the build, plus infrastructure renewal from year two. Year three of Wix costs more than our entire Basic Plan.
Do I own the website after paying?
Yes, completely. The domain is registered in your name, the code is yours, the hosting account is yours. We don't hold any part of your website hostage. If you ever want to move to a different provider after year one, everything is transferable.
