Why one quote says ฿3,000 and another says ฿30,000

A tenfold difference is usually a difference in what is inside the quote, not in who is overcharging.

Illustration of pricing web work

Check these three things and you will know whether you are comparing the same thing at all.

One — how many pages, and what is in them

A page with a form and a page with a booking system both count as one page, and cost very differently.

Two — can you edit it yourself

The admin is invisible from the outside and takes real time to build. A site you cannot edit is always cheaper.

Three — who looks after it afterwards

A price that includes cover and revisions is not the same price as one that ends when the files are handed over.
