Compare DreamTech website price ranges, what each package includes, optional payment setup, and one annual renewal cost.
A useful website quote tells you what will be built, who supplies the content, what you will own, and what you will pay after launch. The build price alone cannot answer those questions. Compare proposals on the same scope instead of assuming that two quotes with the same page count buy the same result.
Start with the published package price
DreamTech's current website price ranges are before 15% VAT:
| Package | Price before VAT | Approved pages |
|---|---|---|
| Personal & Small Business | ETB 25,000–35,000 | 2–22 |
| Professional Company & Growth | ETB 40,000–85,000 | 23–75 |
| Large Company & E-Commerce | ETB 90,000–180,000 | 76–150 |
Online payment setup is optional: Chapa integration is ETB 10,000 and Telebirr integration is ETB 35,000, each before 15% VAT. If both are needed, the setup total is ETB 45,000 before VAT. Telebirr requires more merchant onboarding and integration testing, which is why its setup price is higher. A catalogue or inquiry site without online checkout does not need this add-on. The proposal gives your exact price after reviewing content, templates, languages, design, and integrations. Compare the full package details.
For a first-year estimate, add the selected package price, only the payment integration you need, and any separately scoped content or features. Then calculate 15% VAT on the taxable subtotal. A Telebirr checkout on a site priced at ETB 90,000 would add ETB 35,000 before VAT; provider onboarding and approval still affect the launch schedule.
Count page templates as well as pages
A page is one URL. A template is a reusable layout used by many pages. A site with 40 product pages using one product template can be different work from a site with 40 individually designed pages. Ask the supplier to list both the number of URLs and number of distinct templates. The sitemap should mark the home page, service or product templates, detail pages, contact forms, search, and any language versions.
Also confirm whether the quote includes discovery, custom visual design, CMS setup, responsive testing, accessibility checks, SEO basics, analytics, redirects from an old site, training, and launch. Ask how many review rounds are included and what happens when approved copy, design, or features change.
First-year and renewal costs
- First year:: Choose the agreed package price above. Add Chapa setup (ETB 10,000), Telebirr setup (ETB 35,000), or both only if your website needs online checkout. Add any separately approved content, translation, or custom work. The package includes domain registration, Full CDN hosting, business email, training, and 45 days of post-launch support.
- Annual renewal:: ETB 10,000 per year before 15% VAT covers the domain, Full CDN hosting, and business email together. There is no separate domain, hosting, or email renewal line. Your proposal should show the first renewal date and the VAT amount. The included second year of hosting does not create another hosting charge.
- Later changes:: New pages, content updates, extra integrations, and maintenance beyond the included support period need a separate scope and price if requested.
The package ranges and optional integration prices exclude 15% VAT. To estimate your first-year total, add the agreed build price and chosen extras, then add 15% VAT to the taxable subtotal. The ETB 10,000 annual renewal is also before VAT.
What is usually in scope, and what needs a line item?
DreamTech's package list includes responsive design, admin access, SEO structure and analytics, contact and WhatsApp options, maps and social links, HTTPS, backups, launch, training, and handover. Treat these as package commitments to confirm in the proposal, including the exact limits and delivery method. A CMS is selected around the client's editing needs; ask which content types the team can update without a developer.
Content writing, translation, photography, product-data entry, additional review rounds, custom booking or account workflows, and ERP or CRM integration should each be named as included or separately priced. Business email is free within the agreed package scope. Chapa and Telebirr are separately priced optional integrations; live checkout also depends on merchant documents, provider approval, credentials, settlement arrangements, and testing. See the full web-development service scope and the payment integration comparison.
Three anonymized scope examples from published work
These examples describe real types of work already documented in DreamTech's public portfolio. Client names and commercial amounts are omitted. They illustrate why page count alone is insufficient; they are not quotes, price benchmarks, or claims that a specific client bought one of the packages above.
1. Hospitality website
A restaurant site needed a visual menu with individual dish pages, location information, and clear paths to table requests and online ordering. Its quote should count menu and dish templates, photography and menu copy, reservation or ordering handoff, mobile navigation, and who maintains changing menu items. Review the published hospitality website case study.
2. Education website
An education organization needed program information and a clear admissions journey. Its quote should separate program-page templates from the number of programs, identify who writes and approves admissions content, and specify forms, accessibility, CMS roles, and term-by-term updates. Review the published education website case study.
3. Multi-seller marketplace
A marketplace needed product discovery, categories, seller storefronts, and customer and seller account paths. Its quote should treat catalogue setup, seller permissions, search, onboarding, checkout and payment approval, support, and ongoing operations as distinct scope items. This is more than a set of static pages. Review the published marketplace website case study.
What to request with the final quote
Ask for one written scope showing the sitemap, template count, features, content owner, languages, integration prerequisites, review rounds, launch tests, account and source-code ownership, first-year total, renewal schedule, VAT treatment, exclusions, and support terms. Name one person on your team to approve the content and one person to accept the finished website.
Next step: compare the website packages or request a scoped website quote. Send your current site if you have one, the desired pages and languages, available content, required integrations, and preferred launch window. DreamTech's sales owner and web lead can use that brief to prepare a written scope rather than a page-count-only estimate.
