Website Cost in Pakistan (2026): PKR Price Guide

Quick Answer

A website in Pakistan costs between PKR 25,000 and PKR 600,000 for most businesses in 2026. A template WordPress site costs PKR 25,000–80,000; a custom business or corporate site PKR 80,000–250,000; an e-commerce store PKR 120,000–600,000; and a custom web app starts around PKR 300,000. On top of the build, budget roughly PKR 10,000–35,000 a year for domain and hosting and PKR 2,000–15,000 a month for maintenance.

Website prices in Pakistan at a glance (2026)

These ranges come from published 2026 pricing by Pakistani developers and agencies and from the quotes clients bring us to compare. There is no official price list, and two "5-page websites" can differ by PKR 150,000 depending on what sits behind the pages.

  • Template / WordPress business site: PKR 25,000 – 80,000
  • Custom business or corporate website: PKR 80,000 – 250,000
  • E-commerce store (WooCommerce, Shopify): PKR 120,000 – 600,000
  • Custom web app or SaaS MVP: from PKR 300,000
  • Maintenance: PKR 2,000 – 15,000 a month
  • Domain: about PKR 2,000 – 5,000 a year
  • Shared hosting: about PKR 8,000 – 30,000 a year

Website kitne ki banti hai? The short answer

For a small business that needs a professional presence — a few pages, a contact form, WhatsApp and Google Maps — expect PKR 25,000–80,000 for a template site or PKR 80,000–150,000 for a custom design. For an online store with payments and courier integration, plan for at least PKR 120,000.

What actually drives the price

When two quotes are far apart, the gap usually comes from one of these:

  • Custom design vs template — bespoke design costs more up front and is what makes a brand look established.
  • Integrations — JazzCash, Easypaisa, card gateways, courier booking (TCS, Leopards, PostEx and others), CRM or ERP. Each adds build and testing time.
  • Content — who writes the copy and shoots the photos. Quotes that include content are higher; quotes that don't leave you to fill the gap.
  • SEO foundations — speed, structure, schema and a page per service. Skipping it makes the site cheaper and invisible on Google.
  • Languages — an Urdu version or right-to-left Urdu content adds design and development work.

E-commerce in Pakistan: the costs nobody quotes

Most online orders in Pakistan are still cash on delivery, and a meaningful share are refused at the door. A store that ignores this loses money on courier charges, however cheap the build was. Budget for WhatsApp order confirmation, courier integration and a checkout that discourages fake orders.

Shopify Payments is not available in Pakistan, so stores need a third-party gateway alongside COD. Gateway approval usually takes days, not hours — start the paperwork before the store is finished.

Freelancer, agency or software house?

A freelancer is usually the cheapest option and fine for a small template site. A software house costs more because the price includes design, development, testing, project management and someone to call when something breaks. For anything that takes payments, holds customer data or needs ongoing changes, the second option is usually cheaper over two years.

How to make quotes comparable

Send every developer the same short brief: what you sell, who buys it, the pages you need, the integrations, the languages, and two sites you like. Ask for a fixed price with deliverables, timeline and payment milestones in writing, and confirm that you will own the domain, hosting account and code. Quotes built on the same brief can be compared; quotes from a phone call can't.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cheapest way to get a business website in Pakistan?

A template WordPress site from about PKR 25,000 is the cheapest professional option. It is enough to look credible and appear on Google; plan to move to a custom build when the site needs to rank or sell.

How much does an e-commerce website cost in Pakistan?

An e-commerce website in Pakistan typically costs PKR 120,000–600,000. Smaller WooCommerce or Shopify stores with COD sit at the lower end; custom designs with JazzCash, Easypaisa, card payments and courier integrations sit at the top.

How much does website maintenance cost in Pakistan?

Website maintenance in Pakistan usually costs PKR 2,000–15,000 a month, covering updates, backups, security and small content changes. Larger stores and web apps need more.

Should I use a .pk or .com domain?

Use .pk or .com.pk if your customers are in Pakistan — Google treats it as a Pakistani site, which helps local rankings. Use .com if you sell abroad, because a .pk domain is a weak signal for searches in other countries.

How long does it take to build a website in Pakistan?

A template site takes 1–3 weeks, a custom business site 4–8 weeks, and an e-commerce store or web app 6–12 weeks, depending on content and approvals.
