Frequently Asked Questions
Why do agency quotes vary so dramatically for the same project?
Variations stem primarily from engineering seniority, custom UI/UX design depth, QA testing rigors, and post-launch warranty support. A boutique agency writing custom, scalable code from scratch will quote differently from an offshore shop customizing pre-made WordPress templates.
How accurate is this cost calculator compared to a formal agency quote?
This calculator provides a high-confidence preliminary estimate (typically within 10-15% of real-world agency proposals). Formal quotes require discovery workshops to audit API specifications, legacy data migrations, and custom compliance requirements.
How can I connect with vetted agencies within my estimated budget?
Click the "Match With Agencies" button at the bottom of the calculator. AgencyOra instantly searches our verified directory to introduce you to approved agencies that specialize in your required stack and budget tier.
