The cost of a business website in Ghana depends on how many pages you need, who owns the domain, whether business email is included, and how much the builder charges for support and renewals. Prices vary a lot, so compare what is included, not only the number. As one example, our Launch Site is GHS 1,800 and includes a website, a .com domain and four business emails.
What affects the price of a website?
- Number of pages. A simple site of up to five pages (home, about, services, gallery, contact) costs less than a shop or a booking system.
- Domain. A .com domain is renewed every year. Check who registers it and in whose name.
- Business email. Addresses like info@yourbrand.com cost extra with many builders.
- Content. Writing, photos and logos either come from you or add to the price.
- Support and renewals. Ask what you pay in year two.
What should a business website include?
- A design that works on a phone, because many customers will visit from one
- A contact form and a WhatsApp button so customers can reach you in one tap
- Fast loading, even on mobile data
- Your own .com domain registered in your name
- Business emails on your domain
- A written agreement that says what is included and when it will be ready
What does the Launch Site include?
Our Launch Site is a professional website of up to five pages, your own .com domain, four business emails, a project charter and terms of service. The founding price is GHS 1,800, down from our usual GHS 2,500. We build it in seven working days. You own the domain and the website runs in your own account.
