Are you looking for the cost of a website redesign in 2026? The budget depends on the condition of the existing website, the number of pages, the level of design, the features and the work required to maintain search engine optimisation. A redesign is not just about changing the colours: it can affect the structure, content, performance, security and the conversion journey.
At Elvis Web, we recommend starting with an assessment before deciding between a targeted improvement and a complete overhaul. The aim is to create a website that is more credible, faster and more commercially effective, without needlessly losing the benefits of your current site.
The price ranges below are indicative guidelines, not standard rates. Prices vary depending on the service provider, the market, the content provided and the required features. A proper quotation should set out the scope of work and the deliverables in detail.
| Type of redesign | Indicative budget in France | Indicative budget for Madagascar | What is it for? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Targeted optimisation | 300 à 1 200 € | 150 à 500 € | Modernise a few sections, correct errors or improve the layout |
| Redesign of a showcase website | 1 500 à 5 000 € | 400 à 1 500 € | Review the design, the main pages and the calls to action |
| Multi-page business website | 3 000 à 8 000 € | 700 à 2 500 € | Rewrite several pages, including their content and SEO structure |
| Online shop | €3,000 to €12,000 and above | €900 to €3,500 and above | Review the catalogue, payment, delivery and checkout process |
| Complex or bespoke projects | Subject to quotation | Subject to quotation | Business functions, integrations or data migration |
These figures are indicative only. The final price depends on the specifications and must be compared on a like-for-like basis: number of pages, content integration, licences, maintenance, migration and post-delivery support.
An update is sufficient if the website is generally well-designed, works on mobile devices and meets expectations, but requires a few tweaks. In such cases, you can improve the text, replace images, clarify button labels or correct certain technical elements.
A more extensive overhaul is preferable when the website is difficult to manage, does not display correctly on smartphones, has an outdated visual identity, features a confusing structure, or has a low conversion rate despite receiving relevant traffic. If the technical foundations are obsolete, simply giving the interface a facelift risks merely postponing the problem rather than solving it.
Redesigning five pages does not require the same amount of work as a website with fifty pages. Each page must be assessed: is it still useful, or does it need to be rewritten, merged, redirected or deleted? Content writing, sourcing visuals and formatting can account for a significant proportion of the budget.
A standard template tailored to your brand identity is generally cheaper than a fully bespoke design. In both cases, the website must remain consistent, easy to read, accessible and mobile-friendly. An attractive design that hides contact details or makes the offering difficult to understand does not help with conversions.
Advanced forms, booking systems, customer portals, filters, online payment, synchronisation with software or data imports all require additional testing. List the essential features from the outset and separate them from the desirable enhancements to keep the budget under control.
SEO must be factored into the project: retaining useful URLs, titles and descriptions, heading hierarchy, internal linking, relevant structured data, redirects and checking indexing. A redesign that changes all URLs without a redirect plan can lead to an avoidable loss of traffic.
Outdated extensions, unsuitable hosting or a theme that is difficult to maintain may require technical fixes. You should also ensure you have verified backups, updates, HTTPS configuration and post-launch testing in place.
It is normal for Google to need time to re-index a modified website. The aim is to minimise avoidable errors and monitor signals after the site goes live, not to promise a specific ranking.
Imagine a company with a six-page showcase website: home, services, case studies, about us, contact and legal notices. The website is outdated, but the main content remains relevant. The project may include a new responsive design, a reorganisation of the calls to action, image optimisation, a review of SEO headings and the implementation of any necessary redirects.
The budget will be more reasonable if the content and access points are already available, and if no complex features need to be developed. It will increase if the service provider has to rebuild the content, integrate an external tool or repair a fragile system. This scenario illustrates why it is better to request a detailed quote rather than a price based solely on the number of pages.
Elvis Web supports businesses in creating and improving WordPress websites, with a focus on clarity of the offering, the mobile experience and the fundamentals of SEO. The scope of the service can be tailored to businesses in France or Madagascar, depending on their objectives and constraints.
We begin by clarifying what needs to be retained, improved or rebuilt. The proposal then sets out the pages, features, planned optimisations and the elements that remain the client’s responsibility. This approach helps to avoid misunderstandings and unexpected additions.

Targeted optimisation may take a few days. A shopfront redesign often takes several weeks, depending on the content, approvals and features. The timetable must be confirmed in the quotation.
Not necessarily. If the website remains fast, user-friendly and effective, an update may be all that is needed. An audit helps to identify the issues that are actually affecting the user experience or results.
It can lead to a drop in rankings if URLs, content, redirects or indexing settings are poorly managed. An SEO plan put in place before launch reduces this risk, although it cannot guarantee that there will be no fluctuations.
