How much does a website cost in Malaysia in 2026?

Updated 26 October 2026. Prices read on 26 October 2026.

Short answer: a small business in Malaysia can pay anything from about RM7 a month for a website it builds itself to tens of thousands of ringgit for a custom agency site. For a simple shop website, the prices we read on 26 October 2026 started at RM199 one-off from freelancers and small studios, and at RM75.90 to RM89 a month for done-for-you plans (some with a setup fee). The figures below come from the sellers' own pages and from a GoDaddy cost guide, each with its source.

What GoDaddy's Malaysia guide says

GoDaddy's cost guide for Malaysia, dated 18 December 2025 (page modified 16 April 2026), gives these ranges: a basic website for a small business at RM500 to RM3,000 per year, a semi-professional site at RM1,000 to RM15,000, and a professional site at RM2,200 to RM30,000 per engagement with RM2,000 to RM5,000 a year in maintenance. For large corporations with highly customised features it gives RM50,000 to RM100,000 or more.

The costs people forget

Domain: RM30 to RM200 a year (GoDaddy). Ask whose name it is registered in.
Hosting: RM200 to RM2,900 a year (GoDaddy). Ask whether a quote includes it, and for how long.
Renewal after a promotion: builder prices often rise at renewal (Hostinger's Premium plan renews at RM22.99/month).
Setup fees: some monthly plans add one (Exabytes lists RM900 for its one-page plan).
Edits after launch: a new price list or new photos can be charged per change if no edits are included.
Your time: on a builder you write, design and update everything yourself.

What the first 3 years cost at today's prices

A one-off price looks small next to a monthly plan until you add hosting, the domain and renewals. Here is the total over 36 months at the prices published on 26 October 2026, assuming they do not change.

Option	First 3 years	How it adds up
Hostinger Premium builder (do it yourself)	RM335.52	48-month plan paid upfront (covers the first 4 years)
SiapSite Essential, paid once	RM1,297	RM699 in year 1, then RM299 in year 2 and year 3
SiapSite Essential, paid monthly	RM3,564	36 x RM99
KNF Studios basic, monthly	RM3,204	36 x RM89
Exabytes one-page plan	RM3,632.40	RM900 setup + 36 x RM75.90

The plans are not identical: they differ in pages, edits and support. Compare what is included, not only the total.

How to compare two quotes

Ask for the total over 3 years: build, hosting, domain, renewals and edits.
Ask whose name the domain is registered in, and how you get it if you leave.
Ask how many edits are included after launch, and how fast they are done.
Ask for the minimum term and what happens to the site if you stop paying.
Ask to see the site on your phone before you pay anything.

Questions

Is a website cheaper paid monthly or once?

Over several years, paying once is usually cheaper; monthly spreads the cost. With SiapSite Essential, 36 months monthly is RM3,564, and paying once is RM1,297 over the same 3 years.

Do I pay for the domain every year?

Yes, domains are renewed yearly. GoDaddy's guide puts it at RM30 to RM200 a year. On our monthly plans the domain is included while the plan is active; paying once, year 1 is included and then the yearly renewal covers it.

Why do website quotes in Malaysia vary so much?

They buy different things: a one-page site you edit yourself, a custom design, or a site someone hosts and edits for you each month. Compare the 3-year total and what is included.

Is there a free way to be found online?

Yes. Google says creating a Business Profile and listing your business on Google is free. It puts you on Google Maps; a website adds a page you control. See do I need a website if I have a Facebook page.
