Web Design in Hong Kong: A Guide to Costs and Considerations
Does My Business Need a Website?
Do I need an app, or would a mobile website do?
Apps make sense when users return frequently, need offline access, or use device features like the camera or location. If people visit occasionally to look something up or make an enquiry, a mobile-friendly website costs far less and reaches more people. Most app ideas work better as websites.
How much does it cost to build an app in Hong Kong?
A progressive web app starts around HK$80,000, a cross-platform iOS and Android app from HK$180,000, and larger products from HK$350,000. Screen count and backend complexity move the price more than anything else. See our app development service.
Native, cross-platform, or progressive web app?
Cross-platform suits most businesses: one codebase, both stores, roughly two-thirds the cost of building twice. Native is worth it when you need maximum performance or deep platform features. A progressive web app avoids app store fees and review entirely, at the cost of some device access.
How long does app development take?
A progressive web app takes around two months. Cross-platform apps usually run three to five months, plus one to two weeks for app store review, which is outside anyone's control. Decisions and content coming back slowly extend timelines more than development ever does.
What ongoing costs does an app have?
Apple and Google both charge for developer accounts, and those fees are paid by you directly. Beyond that, apps need updating when iOS and Android release major versions, typically annually, or they eventually stop working. Backend hosting is an ongoing cost too.
