Hiring guides by industry

The London market

London has a deep pool of web studios, from freelancers to agencies of several hundred people, so prices for similar work vary widely. Expect agency rates of around £600-£1,500/day; a business website typically costs £5,000 – £20,000, while a custom web app runs £20,000 – £120,000. The 9 agencies above cover most budgets, and the 53 industry guides below show which teams have done work in your sector.

How much does a website cost in London?+

In London, a business website usually costs £5,000 – £20,000 and a custom web app £20,000 – £120,000. Agency rates of £600-£1,500/day drive most of the difference; integrations and custom features add the rest. Tecklogist quotes from from £799 at a fixed price.

How do I choose a web developer in London?+

Shortlist three agencies that have built sites like yours, ask for live links rather than mock-ups, and ask who will actually do the work. Compare fixed quotes with the same scope, and check what happens after launch: support, hosting and who owns the code.

Should I hire a local London agency or work remotely?+

Local agencies make in-person workshops easy and understand the United Kingdom market. Remote teams can cost less for the same quality. What matters most is overlapping working hours, clear communication and a track record with businesses like yours.

How long does a website take to build in London?+

A business website typically takes 3–6 weeks; a custom web app takes 8–20 weeks. Most delays come from late content and unclear scope, so agree both before signing.

Why is Tecklogist ranked first?+

This list is published by Tecklogist and we rank ourselves first: fixed prices, fixed timelines and code you own. The other London agencies are listed from public portfolios and services, and none pay to appear.
