Web Design in Punggol

Fixed price for a defined scope (a 5-page site with listed features) protects both sides; hourly suits ongoing work and vague scopes. Standard payment structure is 30-50% deposit, remainder on launch — never pay 100% up front, and be wary of anyone who asks.

A content management system (WordPress, Webflow, Shopify) lets you edit text, images and posts without a developer. If you'll update content more than a few times a year — blog, menus, listings — you need one. If the site is a static business card, skipping the CMS makes the site cheaper, faster and harder to hack.

Two to three structured revision rounds are the industry standard, usually stated in the contract. Unlimited-revision promises sound generous but signal weak process — projects with no revision cap routinely stall for months. Consolidate all your feedback into each round instead of drip-feeding changes.

If you take fewer than a handful of orders a week, a brochure site with a contact/order form or a payment link costs half as much and launches faster. Move to full e-commerce (cart, inventory, shipping rules) when order volume makes manual handling the bottleneck.

Five that separate pros from dabblers: Can I see 3 live sites you built and still maintain? Who actually does the work — you or subcontractors? Will I own the domain, hosting and code? What's included in the price and what costs extra? What happens if I want changes after launch?

No contract, no portfolio of live sites, registering the domain in their own name, 'free' websites with mandatory monthly fees, 100% payment up front, and guaranteed #1 Google rankings. The domain-ownership trap is the costliest — walking away can mean losing your web address.

Freelancers charge roughly SGD 50-150/hr; 5-page corporate sites commonly run SGD 2,000-9,000 and e-commerce from SGD 5,000. PSG support can halve the net cost for eligible SMEs using approved vendors and packages.

Eligible SMEs (registered and operating in Singapore, ≥30% local shareholding) choose a pre-approved solution from a listed vendor, apply on Business Grants Portal before paying, and claim up to 50% support after deployment. The vendor and package must both be on the approved list — check before signing anything.
