    How to choose a website studio: a practical guide for businesses

    When choosing a website studio, compare the same scope, not just the final price. First, clarify whether you need a single campaign page, a company website, an e-shop, or an app with logins and custom processes. Each brief requires different features, testing and ongoing maintenance. The following five criteria will help you prepare a comparable request.

    1. Price for a clear scope. Both a fixed price and an hourly rate can make sense; what matters is that you know what you are buying. Ask for a breakdown of pages, features, copy, number of revisions and any running fees. In Digiree's main packages, a conversion landing page costs CZK 19,900 and Company website & presentation CZK 44,900 with 5–10 subpages and a CMS. These are different scopes from the items in our catalogue of individual services. Have any changes outside the approved brief quoted in advance.

    2. A deadline tied to the brief. In Digiree's main packages we state 3–4 days for a conversion landing page and 7–10 days for Company website & presentation. This is not a universal deadline for any app or e-shop. Before ordering, confirm the start date, delivery of materials, approval milestones and the process for scope changes. Our pricing includes a guarantee of 10% off for every day of delay; confirm the conditions for applying it in the specific offer.

    3. References you can verify. Don't judge a screenshot alone. Open the live website, try it on your phone and walk through the path to an inquiry or product. Ask which part of the project the studio actually delivered. In the Digiree portfolio you will find, for example, Majer Clinic, Stavitelství Drážka, advokationline.cz and velotyre.com. These examples help compare the approach across industries; on their own they do not prove revenue growth or guarantee the same result for another project.

    4. Responsibility, handover and support. Agree in advance on the main contact person, how approvals work and who fixes bugs after launch. At Digiree you can discuss the project directly with Martin. The Company website & presentation package includes 30 days of support after launch. Also confirm access to the domain, admin and analytics, export options and the price of ongoing maintenance. Distinguish fixing a bug from ordering a new feature.

    5. Features based on your business goal. For lead generation, compare forms, tracking and how clear the offer is; for an app, also user access and integrations. Besides websites and apps, Digiree offers automations and AI agents, sales presentations and visual identity. Check what is included in the chosen package and what is ordered separately. For automations, ask about data handling, running costs and the option to hand non-standard situations over to a human. Using AI alone is neither proof of quality nor a promise of higher revenue.

    Checklist for comparing offers: the same list of deliverables, price including running costs and surcharges, a deadline with conditions, verifiable references, a responsible person, handover of access and support after launch. Send all the studios you approach the same brief and ask them to mark what the offer does not include. If you want to compare Digiree too, browse our pricing and portfolio or write to Martin with your project goal, required features and preferred deadline.
