How Much Does an Electrician Website Cost in the Netherlands?
One provider quotes €50 a month. Another asks €2,500 upfront. A third offers a yearly plan under €1,000. The reason is simple — they're not offering the same thing.

DIY builders
€10–€25/month
Freelancer or agency
€1,000–€3,000 upfront
Done-for-you
€690 per year + €290 one-time onboarding, everything included
The right choice depends on your time, your technical comfort, and what you actually want the website to do.
If you run an electrical business and you're looking for a website, the prices seem to point in every direction. One provider quotes €50 a month. Another asks €2,500 upfront. A third offers a yearly plan under €1,000.
The reason is simple — you're not comparing like-for-like services.
Some providers hand you the tools and expect you to build everything yourself. Others deliver a custom site but leave the hosting, updates and changes to you afterwards. And there's a newer category: done-for-you services, where the website, the updates and the day-to-day management come together in one fixed price per year.
In this guide we put the three models side by side, so you can see exactly what you're paying for — and what you're not.
To be clear up front: Growth Rocket falls into that third category. It's a complete online business system for Dutch trade businesses, bringing your website, your enquiries and your bookings together in one place — without the back-and-forth with freelancers and without the hours that building it yourself takes. If you recognise yourself in that direction, you'll see where it fits along the way. If not, the comparison below stands on its own.
The quick answer: what an electrician website costs
On the Dutch market you'll come across three models:
DIY website builders — roughly €10 to €25 per month (you build and manage everything yourself)
Freelancer or web agency — €1,000 to €3,000 upfront, plus hosting and maintenance
Done-for-you yearly subscription — €690 per year, plus a one-time €290 onboarding fee
Each model suits a different kind of business. The right choice depends on your time, your technical comfort, and what you actually want the website to do for your business.
01
Option 1
DIY website builders (€10–€25/month)
With a website builder you pick a template, drag blocks into place and put a site online yourself.
What's included
A library of templates
Hosting and SSL security
A basic domain (often a subdomain or a cheap .nl)
An editor where you drag and drop yourself
What's usually excluded
–Custom design
–Copy (you write it yourself)
–Anything beyond basic SEO
–Ongoing updates and fixes
–Features specific to electricians
Typical Dutch pricing
Packages run from around €10 per month at the low end to about €25 per month for more pages and features. There are usually no setup costs.
Choose this if
You're comfortable enough with technology, have a few spare hours to build it yourself, and mainly want an online business card. The cost is low — the quality depends entirely on the time you put in.
Skip this if
You don't have time to learn a website builder, or the site needs to bring in enquiries. Most DIY sites end up as a static brochure: writing good copy and setting up local visibility takes work most electricians simply don't have time for.
The opposite model also exists — having everything built for you in one go.
02
Option 2
Freelancer or agency builds (€1,000–€3,000 upfront)
A freelance web designer or small agency builds a custom site for you. This is the traditional route.
What's included
Custom design
A fixed number of pages (usually 5 to 10)
Basic SEO setup
Sometimes: hosting for the first year
What's usually excluded (or billed separately)
–Hosting after the first year (around €10–€20 per month)
–Domain renewal (about €10 per year)
–Copy changes (€50–€100 per hour)
–Security updates
–New photos, pages or seasonal changes
Typical Dutch pricing
Small freelance build: €1,000–€1,800 upfront
Mid-size agency: €2,000–€3,500 upfront
Installer-focused agencies: subscription-style packages from around €29.95–€59.95/month
The upfront model looks cost-effective over the long term — until you want to change something. Most electricians never touch their site after launch, because every change costs money or a phone call.
Choose this if
You want a fully custom look, have a clear picture in mind, and don't mind arranging hosting and updates yourself. It works well for mid-size firms with ten or more staff and in-house support.
Skip this if
You work alone or have a small team. The upfront price is only part of the picture — change costs pile up, and most sole traders end up never updating their site again.

That leaves the model that takes the work off your hands.
03
Option 3
Done-for-You Business Website System (€690 per year or €69 per month)
This model is built for business owners who don't want to deal with websites — but do want a website that does its job.
Instead of tools or a one-off build, everything is handled for you, for one fixed price per year. The website is built, managed and continuously updated — without you having to deal with hosting, plugins or freelancers. Fully managed, in the most literal sense.
This is where Growth Rocket sits. Not just a website. A complete online business system for service businesses — where your online presence, your incoming enquiries and your bookings are connected and managed in one place.
What's included
A website built and launched for you
Hosting and SSL security, fully managed
Domain arranged and maintained
Ongoing changes to text and content (no per-change fees)
An enquiry and booking system, built into the website
The Growth Rocket Hub: one central dashboard where you track and manage all your enquiries and appointments
What's excluded
–Advertising budget (for example Google Ads)
–Advanced or custom integrations beyond the standard setup
Typical Growth Rocket pricing
Professional: €690 per year or €69 per month
Plus: bespoke, based on your requirements
Spread monthly, that's €57.50 — one fixed yearly price of €690, without the hours or the learning curve of building it yourself.
When this model makes sense
Choose this if you want a professional website live within about a week, like a predictable yearly price, and don't want to lose time to updates or technical hassle. It usually fits solo electricians, ZZP'ers and small teams of two to ten people looking for something reliable and low-maintenance.
When it doesn't
If you need a strongly custom design, or deep integrations with specific software systems, this model can feel limited next to a full custom build.
Still, not every requirement fits neatly into a standard package — that's what the bespoke route is for. Growth Rocket also offers custom configurations for businesses that need more: extra functionality, integrations or a tailored setup. The standard packages cover most situations; more complex needs can be discussed without moving to a completely different model.

What most electricians actually pay in year one
The “cheapest” option is rarely the cheapest once you count your own hours — and the updates that usually get postponed or skipped.
DIY builder — around €120–€300 per year, plus 15 to 25 hours of your own time
Freelancer or agency — €1,000–€3,000 upfront, plus around €120–€240 per year for hosting and paid updates → typically €1,500–€2,500 or more in year one
Done-for-you system (Growth Rocket) — €690 per year, plus €290 one-time onboarding
The difference isn't just the amount — it's how predictable that amount stays.
A DIY builder keeps the price low but costs you time. A freelancer build starts high and adds small amounts afterwards. A done-for-you system keeps the cost fixed, so you know exactly what you pay. No surprises.

Final thought
The cheapest website isn't the one with the lowest monthly price — it's the one that quietly does its job without demanding your time, your attention or endless upkeep.
For most electricians, the real cost isn't money. It's the hours you don't have, the updates that never happen and the enquiries you might miss because the site isn't right.
That's why more and more small electrical firms choose a fixed price and a done-for-you system — something that goes live quickly, stays updated and just does its job in the background while you're on the job. Pick the model that fits how you actually run your business — not just what looks cheaper on paper.
Rather never think about your website again after launch?
