How Nettify works
Website price: from free to hundreds of thousands
The price of a website in Norway varies enormously - from free with a simple website builder to over 100,000 NOK with a large agency. For most Norwegian businesses, the right solution sits somewhere in between.
This guide gives you an honest overview of what the different solutions cost, so you can make an informed choice. We compare agencies, WordPress, other website builders and Nettify.
Spoiler: with Nettify you can build a website for free and publish on your own domain for a fraction of what an agency costs.
Website from an agency: 20,000 - 100,000+ NOK
A Norwegian web agency typically charges between 20,000 and 80,000 NOK for a simple business website with 4-8 pages. Complex projects with custom development, an online store or integrations can cost 100,000 NOK or more.
On top of that come ongoing costs: hosting (1,000-5,000 NOK/year), maintenance and updates (3,000-10,000 NOK/year), and any changes billed by the hour (800-1,500 NOK/hour).
The advantage of an agency is custom work and personal follow-up. The downside is a high upfront cost, a long delivery time (typically 4-8 weeks) and dependence on the agency for changes.
WordPress website: 3,000 - 15,000 NOK/year
WordPress is free as software, but you need hosting (500-2,000 NOK/year), a domain (100-200 NOK/year), a premium theme (500-1,500 NOK one-time) and plugins (500-3,000 NOK/year for SEO, security, contact form etc.).
If you can't set up WordPress yourself, you'll need a developer to do it (2,000-10,000 NOK). Ongoing maintenance - security updates, plugin conflicts and backups - takes either time or money.
The total cost of WordPress typically lands at 3,000-15,000 NOK per year, depending on plugins and whether you do the maintenance yourself. Read more about Nettify as an alternative to WordPress.
Website builder (Wix, Squarespace): 1,500 - 5,000 NOK/year
International website builders like Wix and Squarespace typically cost 1,500-5,000 NOK per year for a plan with your own domain and no ads. Free plans come with limitations such as ads and a generic subdomain.
The downside is that these platforms are built for the international market. You have to write the content in Norwegian yourself, support is in English, and the features aren't tailored to the needs of Norwegian businesses.
Nettify: free start, everything included

Built withNettifynordicsmarthost.noI struggled with Squarespace for ages — it felt clunky, and I never got my site quite the way I wanted it. Then I switched to Nettify, and what a difference! It's such an easy website builder, and the site turned out so much nicer than before. Warmly recommended 😊

Built withNettifybokelskeren.comNettify is a breath of fresh air in the web market. As a consultant I've been looking for a system I can pass on to my clients, and from now on I'll be recommending Nettify. The system is easy to navigate and the support is great. The fact that there's a Norwegian founder behind it is a plus in my book — it means deeper knowledge of the Norwegian market and support that's closer to home.
