The number is not the point
A website quote is a bill for a set of decisions, not a price for a product called "a website". Two quotes for the same six pages can differ by a factor of three, and both can be honest, because one of them included work the other quietly left out.
What moves the price
Who writes the content. Writing about your business takes longer than building the page it goes on, and it is the part most often dropped from a quote because it is invisible in a line item.
How much is custom. A theme you configure and a layout designed from a blank file are different amounts of work, and the difference is not visible until it is too late to ask.
What has to integrate. A booking flow, a payment gateway, an account area, or a connection to something you already run.
What happens after launch. Maintenance, updates and the small changes that always arrive are usually not in the initial quote at all.
What to ask for
Ask for a written scope: which pages, which features, what is explicitly excluded, what it costs, and how long. If a quote cannot answer those five things, it is not a quote, it is an opening position.
The honest version
The cheapest good website is one whose scope matches what your business actually needs. Building more than that costs money and earns nothing, and building less means a site that cannot do the job you had in mind. The work is agreeing which of those you are buying before anyone opens a text editor.
