Adding a simple page with ready content may take 3-8 hours, about $150-$400 at Vertinus's $49.99 hourly rate. A custom service or location page commonly needs 8-20 hours, about $400-$1,000. A researched conversion page or a page with new functionality may require 20-50 hours or more, about $1,000-$2,500.
The cost depends on content, layout, evidence, design, images, forms, integrations, responsive behavior, accessibility, search setup, navigation, analytics, and the condition of the existing website.
Simple content page: 3-8 hours
Approximately $150-$400 at $49.99 per hour.
This range can fit an approved privacy update, straightforward FAQ, team biography, policy, or basic informational page using the site's existing components. The client supplies accurate final text and suitable images.
Custom service or location page: 8-20 hours
Approximately $400-$1,000 at $49.99 per hour.
This range may include content shaping, customer questions, calls to action, trust evidence, an original arrangement of existing components, optimized images, metadata, internal links, responsive testing, accessibility checks, analytics, and publishing.
A legitimate location page needs location-specific facts and usefulness. Changing a city name across duplicated text is not the same work.
Conversion or campaign page: 20-50 hours
Approximately $1,000-$2,500 at $49.99 per hour.
This range can include offer and audience research, interviews, original copy, custom visual presentation, proof selection, form design, CRM or scheduling connection, tracking, thank-you behavior, performance work, and launch measurement.
The landing page cost guide covers broader campaign and advertising scenarios.
Functional page: 20 hours and above
A calculator, booking interface, customer form with file upload, product configurator, filtered directory, checkout, application, or portal screen is software work presented on a page.
Estimate its states, rules, data, permissions, integrations, errors, administration, security, and testing rather than pricing it by page count.
What the estimate should include
- Purpose, audience, and primary action.
- Research, interview, writing, and approval responsibilities.
- Layout and reusable or new components.
- Images, illustration, video, and licenses.
- Forms, integrations, and confirmation behavior.
- Navigation and internal links.
- Title, description, canonical URL, and sitemap inclusion.
- Analytics or conversion event.
- Responsive, accessibility, and performance checks.
- Revision, publishing, and post-launch correction.
Existing-site condition matters
Adding a page is faster when the site has reusable components, consistent styles, a current codebase, reliable deployment, and clear content ownership.
Cost rises when the provider must recover access, repair a builder, update unsupported plugins, recreate missing source, purchase licenses, or reverse-engineer the design. A takeover assessment may be needed first; see the website takeover cost guide.
Example: new service page
A local business wants one page for a priority service. It provides accurate service details, service-area facts, original project photos, credentials, and an approved price range. The existing site has reusable sections and a working estimate form.
- Content outline and shaping: 3-5 hours.
- Page design and development: 4-8 hours.
- Images, metadata, links, and analytics: 2-4 hours.
- Review, testing, and publishing: 2-4 hours.
Total planning range: 11-21 hours, about $550-$1,050 at $49.99 per hour.
Example: duplicate a page with new words
Duplicating an existing template and inserting approved text can be only 3-6 hours. But the result still needs a distinct purpose, accurate content, metadata, links, responsive review, accessibility checks, and publishing.
If the new page competes with an existing page for the same search intent, consolidation may be better than addition.
How Vertinus prices new pages
Vertinus charges $49.99 per hour for time actually worked up to the approved estimate. The scope states what the client supplies, what Vertinus writes or designs, included functions, estimated hours, and the publishing responsibility.
Optional Managed Website Care at $50 per month covers the technical foundation, not new pages or content. New pages remain approved hourly work.
Send Vertinus the current website, page purpose, available content, and desired action. We will estimate the hours and tell you if improving an existing page is the better investment.
