The full list with what each includes: https://terris.sg/pricing ### Websites built from scratch - Starter: from SGD 2,535 (up to 10 pages, 2 to 3 weeks). Copy, images, SEO setup and a WhatsApp button, designed from scratch. - One Week Website: SGD 3,545 (up to 20 pages, 7 days). A fixed scope, planned with you on days one and two. - Growth: from SGD 7,585 (up to 20 pages, 3 to 5 weeks). A CMS you edit yourself, a blog, keyword research and your Google Business profile. - Premium: from SGD 10,620 (up to 30 pages, 5 to 8 weeks). A shop or bookings with payments, and a second language. - Extra pages: SGD 350 a page. Past the page count of your tier, or added after launch. - E-commerce, added to Starter or Growth: from SGD 3,540. A shop bolted onto a tier that does not include one. Premium already has it, and costs less than Growth plus this, on purpose. - Shopify store, on a theme: from SGD 4,045 (up to 50 products loaded, 3 to 4 weeks). A Shopify theme designed to your brand and set up to sell. - Shopify store, designed from scratch: from SGD 8,085 (up to 200 products loaded, 6 to 8 weeks). Every page designed for your brand and built into Shopify. - 3D landing page, added to a build: SGD 4,545. One code-built 3D centrepiece reacting to cursor and scroll, on a site I am already building for you. Cheaper than the standalone 3D Story because the build supplies the copy, form and hosting around it. ### 3D, scroll stories and playable pages - Story Proposal: SGD 1,015 (1 week). The smallest way to start. Paid upfront and credited in full against any build that follows, so if you go ahead it costs you nothing. - Scroll Story: SGD 3,845 (2 to 3 weeks). Layered parallax art and a scroll-scrubbed film sequence, without real-time 3D. Light, quick, works everywhere. - 3D Story: SGD 5,860 (3 to 5 weeks). One real-time 3D scene, built around your product. The 3D story page on this site is one, so you can scroll the thing you are buying before you buy it. - Playable Room: SGD 7,885 (3 to 4 weeks). One place, one real thing to do in it, and a page you can ship. - 3D World: from SGD 9,915 (5 to 8 weeks). Several scenes, or your own files brought to life, plus the same models viewable in AR on a phone. Quoted after I see the files. - Playable World: from SGD 18,185 (6 to 9 weeks). A walkable world with five places, a story that runs start to finish, and an ordinary HTML page underneath it all. ### SEO and AI search - SEO and GEO retainer: from SGD 2,520 a month (month to month · 30 days' notice to stop). Fixes, new pages written as answers, and a monthly check across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews. - Link building: Foundation: SGD 1,215 a month. For a newer site, or a first serious push at organic search. - Link building: Growth: SGD 2,430 a month. Where most Singapore SMEs land. Enough pace to move competitive terms. - Link building: Authority: SGD 4,045 a month. For niches where the top three results all sit on deep link profiles. - Link building: single placement: from SGD 350. One placement on a vetted site, for when a retainer is more than the job needs. ### Google Ads - Website and Google Ads, managed: SGD 2,545 a month (ad budgets up to SGD 10,000 a month). Your site kept up and the ads pointing at it, run together. The ad budget goes straight to Google. ### Branding and identity - Full brand identity: from SGD 4,560 (4 to 6 weeks). The whole identity: the mark, the system around it, and the guidelines that keep it consistent after I hand it over. - Logo and brand basics: from SGD 1,515 (2 to 3 weeks). A logo and the few things a website needs around it. Not a full identity system, and priced accordingly. ### Other marketing channels - Digital marketing, multi-channel: from SGD 3,035 a month. SEO, ads and social run together as one plan instead of three suppliers each optimising their own number. - Social media management: from SGD 2,230 a month. Priced on how many channels, how much is filmed or designed, and how often you post. Those three move the number far more than anything else, so a list price here would be fiction. - AI influencer or mascot, designed: from SGD 1,825 (About a week). An AI influencer or mascot made for your brand, with the face, voice and personality fixed so every post looks and sounds like the same character. - AI influencer social media: from SGD 2,835 a month. A month of photos, Reels and TikToks made with your AI influencer or mascot, posted on two platforms, with the comments answered. - AI influencer social media, with ads: from SGD 3,845 a month (ad budgets up to SGD 10,000 a month). Everything in the monthly plan, plus Meta and TikTok ads run on the Reels that are already working, so the budget goes to what people watch. - Content marketing: from SGD 1,820 a month. Quoted per piece or per month, depending on how much research each article needs. - Email marketing: from SGD 900 a month. Setup is a one-off; sending is a retainer. Quoted together once I know your list size. - Conversion rate optimisation: from SGD 2,435 a month. Needs real traffic before it can honestly be sold. I will tell you if you do not have enough yet rather than take the money. ### Growing your site after launch - Website partner retainer: SGD 3,045 a month (20 hours a month · month to month). Your Google Ads, SEO and new landing pages run together to grow a site I built, with hosting and upkeep included. - Content retainer, 5 hours a month: SGD 550 a month (5 hours a month · month to month). Updates, daily backups and security, plus 5 hours of changes on any site. - Content retainer, 10 hours a month: SGD 950 a month (10 hours a month · month to month). The same upkeep, with 10 hours a month to change the site. - Hours beyond a retainer: SGD 120 an hour. When a month runs long. Still cheaper than ad hoc, which is the point of committing. - Ad hoc, no commitment: SGD 150 an hour. No retainer, no minimum. Booked in 30-minute blocks when something needs doing. - One-off fix and configure: from SGD 850. A broken checkout, a form that stopped sending, responsiveness that fell apart. Quoted per job once I have looked, with the predictable work at a true fixed price and anything open-ended as a capped block against an agreed list. ### Apps, integrations and anything custom - Custom web application: from SGD 12,140. Anything with a login, a dashboard, roles or a database behind it. No tier covers this honestly, so it is sized properly or not quoted. - AI apps, chatbots and automation: from SGD 6,575. A chatbot on your own content, a workflow that runs itself, a model wired into the tools you already use. - Features on a site I did not build: from SGD 2,530. An integration, a login-gated form, a bot. I look at your actual plugin stack first, because what is already installed usually decides whether this is cheap or a rebuild. - Large catalogue or multi-vendor e-commerce: from SGD 15,180. Marketplaces, subscriptions, deposits, memberships. These look like brochure sites from the outside and are not. ## Work Seven Singapore businesses I've designed and built websites for, from a one-week launch to a 325-page law firm site. - [MET Interior, interior design, 2026](https://terris.sg/portfolio/met-interior): 176 pages, in the second site I've built for them, once the business outgrew the first.

I design, write and build every site myself, and I'm the one you talk to on WhatsApp, before, during and after the build. ### Are you a freelance web designer? Yes, I'm a [freelance web designer](https://terris.sg/services/freelance-web-designer-singapore), but a full-time one. I don't love the word, because freelance can sound like part-time work or a side job, and web design has been my full-time business since 2018, across 290+ projects. You still get what people hire a freelancer for: one person who designs, writes and builds your site, and answers your WhatsApp from the first message to launch day. ### What is an AI-ready website? It's a website that ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's [AI Overviews](https://terris.sg/blog/google-ai-overviews-seo-singapore) can read and understand. Every site I build lets their crawlers in, and the on-page SEO and business schema go in before launch, so those tools know what your business does and where. That part comes in every package. Getting named in their answers takes steady SEO work once it's live. ### Will my website show up in ChatGPT and Google's AI answers? It'll be ready for them on launch day, because every site I build lets the AI crawlers in and carries the SEO and business schema they read. Being named in their answers takes steady work after that: pages written as answers, fuller schema, and a monthly check of what those tools say about you. That's SEO and AI search, from SGD 2,520 a month. Nobody can promise you a mention, so I don't. ### What's in the free SEO check? I look at your site the way Google and the AI tools do. I check that their crawlers can reach every page, read your page titles, descriptions and headings, look for business schema, and test how fast it loads on a phone. Then I WhatsApp you what's holding it back and what I'd fix first. The check is free. If you want me to do the fixes, you get a fixed price before I start. ### How much does a website cost in Singapore? Most business websites in Singapore cost between SGD 3,000 and SGD 15,000, depending on how many pages and features they need. Mine start at SGD 2,535 for up to 10 pages, and Growth, where most businesses land, is SGD 7,585. Every price is fixed before I start and published on [my prices page](https://terris.sg/pricing). ### How do I choose a web designer in Singapore? Look at live websites they've built, not screenshots, and ask who will actually design and build yours. Get the price fixed in writing, check that the domain and every account will be in your name, and ask what happens after launch: who makes changes, how fast, and at what cost. Then talk to them. You'll be working with this person for years, so it matters that they reply and explain things plainly. ### Why hire one web designer instead of an agency? You talk to the person doing the work, so your feedback goes straight into the design and a change is one message. The person who built your site is also the one who later works on its SEO and ads, so there's nobody new to brief. ### Will I deal with you, or with an account manager? With me, the whole way through. I reply on WhatsApp, write and design the pages, build the site and work on its SEO and ads afterwards. There's no account manager and no junior to hand it to. ### Is the price really fixed? Yes. Before I start, I send you a price and a list of what it covers. You pay half when I start and half when you approve the finished site. If you later want something that isn't on the list, I'll price it first and you decide. ### How long does it take to build a website? Starter takes 2 to 3 weeks, Growth 3 to 5 weeks and Premium 5 to 8 weeks. If you need it sooner, the [One Week Website](https://terris.sg/services/one-week-website) goes live in 7 days, with the scope fixed together on days one and two. ### What happens after my website is live? You own the site and everything I make for it, and there's no lock-in contract. If you'd like me to keep growing it, the [website partner retainer](https://terris.sg/services/website-partner-retainer) is SGD 3,045 a month. I run your Google Ads, SEO and new landing pages from 20 hours a month, and hosting and upkeep are included. I'll WhatsApp you an update on the results whenever you ask. ### Do you do SEO as well as web design? Yes. Every site I build has its SEO set up before launch, with Analytics and Search Console connected. To keep climbing after that, [SEO and AI search](https://terris.sg/services/seo-singapore) starts at SGD 2,520 a month, month to month, with 30 days' notice to stop. ### How do I get my business to show up on Google in Singapore? You need a site Google can read quickly, pages that answer what your customers actually search for, and a [Google Business profile](https://terris.sg/services/local-seo-singapore) with real reviews. I set up the first two in every build, and Growth includes your Google Business profile. Expect it to take months rather than weeks. ### Is Google Ads worth it for a small business in Singapore? It is when people already search for what you sell and a customer is worth more than the clicks it takes to find one. I set up the campaigns, write the ads, keep optimising them and track every lead they bring in, so you can see what each enquiry costs you. [Google Ads with me](https://terris.sg/services/google-ads-singapore) is SGD 2,545 a month for the ads and the website together, and your ad budget goes straight to Google. ### Can you redesign my website without losing my Google rankings? I plan every [website redesign](https://terris.sg/services/website-redesign-singapore) around it. Before I change anything, I list the pages that bring in traffic, keep the addresses that rank, and redirect any that have to move so Google follows them to the new site. Rankings can wobble for a few weeks after any relaunch, so I watch Search Console once it's live. ### What if I don't have photos or copy? That's normal, especially for a new business. I write the copy for every page, and I make custom images with AI, art-directed to your brand colours, so you aren't using the same stock photos as your competitors. It's included in every package. When you have real photos later, I swap them in. ### What if something happens to you? Nothing is locked to me. You own the site and everything I make for it, so another developer could pick it up. I've worked on this full-time since 2018, and you can read what my clients wrote about it on Google. ### Can you build an online shop or a booking system? Yes. Premium, from SGD 10,620, adds an [online shop](https://terris.sg/services/ecommerce-website-design-singapore) or bookings with payments, and a second language. If you need logins, dashboards or a system of your own, that's a [custom web app](https://terris.sg/services/custom-web-application-singapore), from SGD 12,140. ## Guides to choosing a web designer - [Looking for a freelance web designer in Singapore?](https://terris.sg/services/freelance-web-designer-singapore) - [12 questions to ask before you hire a web designer](https://terris.sg/blog/questions-ask-web-designer-singapore): The 12 essential questions to ask any web designer before signing a contract.
