Freelancer, agency or platform: which provider for which budget?
For the same budget, your choice of provider changes what you get:
- Freelancer (€1,000 – €6,000): direct contact with the person building your site, lighter rates with no structural overhead. Check the portfolio, SEO skills and availability for maintenance.
- Small agency / studio (€3,000 – €10,000): multidisciplinary team (design, development, content), more structured process, often more predictable timelines.
- Established agency (€10,000 – €50,000+): for complex projects: multilingual sites, ERP/CRM integrations, brand governance. You also pay for project management and guarantees.
- DIY platforms (Wix, Squarespace: €200 to €500/year): the cheapest on paper, but your time isn't free and the SEO/performance limits show up quickly once the site needs to generate leads.
In Belgium, the price gap between a freelancer and an agency for the same brief is typically 30 to 50%. The right criterion isn't the hourly rate but the cost per result: a €4,000 site that brings in quote requests every week is cheaper than a €1,500 site that doesn't convert.
WordPress, Wix, Webflow or Astro: which system to choose in 2026?
Quick summary:
- WordPress flexible, economical, but high maintenance.
- Wix / Squarespace simple, but limited for SEO.
- Webflow powerful for design, less suitable for very large sites.
- Astro :the fastest on the marketideal for conversion- and SEO-oriented SMEs.

VAT, deductibility and amortization: the real cost for your business
The prices in this guide are excluding VAT, like most B2B quotes in Belgium. Three rules to know:
- 21% VAT on website creation: recoverable if your company is VAT-registered: the real impact on your cash flow is therefore temporary.
- Deductibility: a professional website is a business expense. The build is generally treated as an investment amortized over several years (often 3), to be confirmed with your accountant.
- Recurring costs (hosting, maintenance, SEO): deductible expenses in the current financial year.
In practice, for a VAT-registered company, a €5,000 (excl. VAT) website doesn't "cost" €6,050: the VAT is recovered and the amortization reduces your taxable base.
Grants and subsidies: cut the bill by 25 to 70%
Belgium is one of the few countries where website creation is heavily subsidized, and many SMEs miss out:
- Brussels: the Digitalization Grant covers 25 to 70% of digitalization services (including website creation or redesign), with a cap of €10,000 in grants per calendar year.
- Wallonia: the Chèques entreprises support digital transformation projects for Walloon SMEs and self-employed workers.
- Flanders: the kmo-portefeuille funds advice and training linked to your digitalization (pure website creation is generally not eligible).
Careful: in most schemes, the application must be submitted before signing the quote. Detailed guides:
