Frequently asked questions
Pricing, payments, hosting, SEO and support: straight answers to what South African businesses ask us most.
How much does a website cost in South Africa with One3?
A Professional website is R1,999 once-off. Premium websites start from R3,599 and are quoted up from there depending on scope. Hosting is free for the first year, then R79 per month.
What are the monthly costs after my website is live?
Hosting is R79 per month from month 13, business email is R99 per mailbox per month, and your domain renews at R149 per year. Nothing else is required unless you add services such as SEO or an AI assistant.
What is included in a Professional website?
A mobile-first site of up to five pages, WhatsApp chat button, contact form, Google Maps, SSL certificate, basic on-page SEO and a year of hosting. Extra pages are R599 each.
How does payment work?
A 50% deposit starts the project and the balance is paid before go-live. Your domain is registered once payment is confirmed. Payment is by EFT; banking details appear on your invoice.
Do your prices include VAT?
One3 Technologies is not VAT-registered, so no VAT is added to our prices.
Can I update the website myself?
Yes. Add an admin portal for R900 and you can edit content, products or listings yourself without calling us.
Will my website rank on Google?
Every One3 site ships with technical SEO foundations: titles, descriptions, structured data, a sitemap and fast loading. Competitive rankings need ongoing SEO and a Google Business Profile, which we also offer.
Do you only work in Johannesburg?
We are based in Johannesburg and deliver websites, hosting, email, cloud and remote IT support nationwide. Onsite work such as cabling and CCTV is focused on Gauteng.
Are the software licences in your shop genuine?
Yes. Licences are delivered digitally with activation support, and we help you install and activate them.
How do I get started?
