How much does a website cost in Lyon in 2026?

If you're looking for a web developer in Lyon, you've probably asked this question. The honest answer is: it depends. But I'll give you real ranges, not marketing fluff.

Average prices in Lyon

Brochure site (1-5 pages): €800 — €2,000

A simple site for a craftsperson, freelancer, or small business. A few pages (home, services, contact), clean design, mobile-optimized with basic SEO.

Custom site with features: €2,000 — €5,000

This is where it gets interesting. Online booking, client portal, payments, dashboard, API integrations (SMS, calendar, inventory). My Belka'Coiff project falls here: 24/7 booking, integrated POS, Twilio SMS, staff dashboard.

Full e-commerce: €3,000 — €10,000+

Online store with inventory management, secure payments, optimized conversion funnel. Depends on product count and complexity.

What drives the price

1. Technology

• WordPress: cheaper upfront, but ongoing maintenance, paid plugins, slower.
• Next.js / React: more expensive initially, but ultra-fast, scalable, no plugin maintenance. You own the code.

2. Features

Each feature adds dev time:

• Online booking: +€500 to €1,500
• Client portal / dashboard: +€800 to €2,000
• Online payment: +€500 to €1,000
• Multilingual: +€300 to €800

3. Design

A modified WordPress template: quick but generic. Custom design: pricier but unique and aligned with your brand.

4. Maintenance

Budget €50–€200/month for maintenance (hosting, updates, small changes).

My tips for a project in Lyon

1. Don't pay for things you don't need. A hair salon doesn't need e-commerce. A restaurant doesn't need a complex dashboard.
2. Make sure you own the code. Many agencies rent you your own site. That's a trap.
3. Check the speed. Ask to see sites they've built and test them on PageSpeed Insights. A slow site = lost customers.
4. Get a detailed quote. Every line should be explained. No opaque "global package."

My pricing

My projects start at €1,000 for a custom Next.js brochure site. Quotes are detailed, free, and delivered within 24h. Contact me for a precise estimate.
