How much does a website cost in Jamaica? (2026, plain answer)

Ask five people in Jamaica what a website costs and you'll get five numbers, from "my cousin will do it for free" to "the agency quoted me more than my car". None of them are lying. They're pricing different things.

The three things that set the price

1. Who builds it. A friend with a page builder, a freelancer, a template service like IslandSites, or a custom agency like Ezy Web Pro. Each step up buys you more skill, more reliability and more of your time back.

2. What it has to do. A page that shows your services and opens WhatsApp is simple. A store with a cart and card payments, a booking system with deposits, a rental system with contracts, a client portal — each of those is real software, and software costs more than pages.

3. What happens after it's live. This is the one people forget. Hosting, SSL, backups, security updates, domain renewal, and someone to call when it breaks or needs a price changed. A "cheap" one-off site with nobody behind it ends up expensive the first time it goes down.

Two honest ways to pay

Pay once, own it. You pay a build fee up front, then hosting and maintenance separately. Better when you need something custom and plan to keep it for years. That's the Ezy Web Pro model — every project is quoted on what it needs.

Pay monthly, everything included. No big build fee. One monthly price covers the site, hosting, security and small changes. Better when you want to be online this week without a lump sum. That's the IslandSites model: J$5,000/month, template site built for you, hosting and WhatsApp support included, add a store or bookings for J$2,500/month each, cancel anytime.

What "free" actually costs

Free page builders put their ads on your site, give you a long ugly address, and leave you to figure out Google, mobile, and security yourself. If your business is a hobby, that's fine. If it pays your bills, the hours you'll sink in are worth more than J$5,000 a month.

Our plain answer

If you need a clean, professional site for a shop, restaurant, salon, tour, trade, clinic, church or office in Jamaica — and you want it this week — start with IslandSites at J$5,000/month.
