The average website design and development with us is about $6,000, though it depends on what you need.
Short answer: it depends.
Long answer: every business is different, so every website should be too.
At Cowlick Studios, we don’t do cookie-cutter pricing for custom work. Our Start-to-Finish websites typically range from $3,999 to $7,499, depending on what you need. If your project is a little more unique, we’ll build a custom quote around it.

Most websites take about 6 to 8 weeks to build.
Most projects take about 6–8 weeks.
That said, the biggest factor is you (in a good way). Fast feedback, ready content, and clear direction keep things moving. If your site needs more advanced features, it may take a bit longer—but we’ll set expectations upfront.
We write your content for you, with the help of AI.
Honestly? We do—and you’ll be glad we do.
Most projects stall because business owners are too busy to write their own content. So we take it off your plate. Using industry research (and a bit of help from tools like ChatGPT), we write your site for you.

We host on a trusted third-party server we know performs well, though you’re free to host elsewhere.
Hosting matters more than people think.
We use a trusted third-party host that we know performs well and has solid support. You’re free to host elsewhere, but don’t cheap out here—it can cost you later. If you want recommendations, we’ll point you in the right direction.
Yes. Every website we build works on phones, tablets, and desktops.
100%. If it doesn’t work on mobile, it doesn’t work—period.
We build almost entirely on WordPress, because it’s flexible, reliable, and easy for you to manage.
Yes—and for good reason.
WordPress powers a huge chunk of the internet. It’s flexible, reliable, and easy for you to manage once we’re done. We’ll show you how to use it without the overwhelm.
Nope.
Everything we build is custom—designed to fit your business, not squeezed into a pre-made theme. You’ll stand out, not blend in.
A lot. We don’t move forward without your input and approval at each step.

Every site we build is ready for SEO from day one: page titles, meta descriptions, image alt text, and a clean structure. We also offer ongoing SEO through a trusted contractor if you want to grow further.
Yes, we can redesign your existing site. The cost is usually similar to a new website, since we rebuild it properly rather than patch what’s there. We start by looking at what you have and where you want to go.
