Web design in Durban,priced in the open.

Custom websites for Durban and KZN businesses — built by one engineer, priced publicly, and measured on a dashboard you can see from day one.

Custom web design in Durban costs R40,000+ once-off, or R1,850/month on a Studio plan with no upfront build fee. E-commerce starts at R45,000 and custom platforms at R85,000. Every build includes hosting, SSL, monitoring, conversion tracking and the Octa360 dashboard for three months. We work with KZN clients remotely from Johannesburg.

What a Durban business should expect to pay

The KZN market has fewer agencies than Gauteng or the Cape, which usually means one of two things: a very cheap template site, or an agency quote built for a corporate budget. There is not much in the middle, and almost nobody publishes a price.

Built for how South Africans actually browse

Most of your Durban customers will open your site on a mid-range Android phone on mobile data, not a MacBook on fibre. That is the device we test on before launch, and it is where most local sites quietly fail — a site that loads in two seconds in an agency office can take eight on a real phone in Umhlanga at 5pm.

Every build also gets its checkout or contact form tested on a real handset on mobile data before it goes live. It sounds obvious. It is skipped constantly.

Working remotely with KZN

We are in Johannesburg and work with Durban clients remotely. Calls are on Google Meet, the build happens in a repository you can watch as it goes, and you get a live dashboard rather than a status email. If your project needs weekly in-person sessions, a Durban studio is the better call and we will tell you that on the first conversation.

Every site is measured after launch

The build is the start. Every site ships connected to Octa360 — daily rankings, reviews, ad performance, Search Console and AI visibility on one screen, with a plain-language email every Monday. Most agencies hand over a website and disappear; you get to watch whether it actually works.

Questions we get from Durban businesses

How much does a website cost in Durban?

A custom site is R1,850 per month with no upfront build fee, or from R40,000 once-off. E-commerce starts at R45,000 and custom platforms at R85,000. Prices are published rather than quoted on request.

Are you based in Durban?

No, we are in Johannesburg and work with KZN clients remotely. Calls are on Google Meet and you can watch the build progress in a shared repository. If you need someone in the room weekly, a Durban studio is a better fit.

Do you build online stores for KZN businesses?

Yes, on Shopify or WooCommerce with South African payment gateways, courier rules and conversion tracking configured. Store builds start at R45,000.

What happens after the site launches?

Every build includes the Octa360 dashboard for three months, so you can see rankings, reviews, ad results and AI visibility in one place. After that it is R950 per month, or you move onto a care plan.
