Shopping for a website in Charlotte means sorting through quotes that range from $2,500 to $18,000 for what sounds like the same deliverable. The gap isn’t arbitrary. It comes down to who’s actually building it, what platform they’re building on, and how much overhead is baked into the number before they ever pick up the phone. There’s also a tier most people don’t think about — the DIY builders and gig platforms that look cheap upfront but cost more to fix or replace down the road. Knowing how the market actually breaks down makes it a lot easier to figure out what you’re buying, what you’re skipping, and where the real value is. AdamsWP breaks it all down, tier by tier, with straight answers and no sales pitch.
