The 8 Best Web Development Companies in Tbilisi

Only a minority of Tbilisi agencies publish prices, so treat these as bands rather than quotes. From the price lists that are public, a single landing page runs roughly 300 to 1,500 GEL, a multi-page business site roughly 1,600 to 5,000 GEL or $1,200 to $2,500, and a working e-commerce store starts around 2,500 GEL and climbs fast with catalogue size and payment integrations. Custom application work from the larger agencies is not published at all and is scoped in day rates, which puts it in a different order of magnitude. Ongoing maintenance is commonly quoted around $200 a month and hosting around $50 a year at the budget end.

For a five-page company site on WordPress, a good freelancer is often the better value and the faster route. An agency earns its margin when the project has moving parts, meaning payment gateways, a booking or CRM layer, migrations, or a launch date that someone has to be accountable for. The real difference is cover. A freelancer who disappears in month three leaves you with a half-finished database, whereas a firm with two phone lines and a registered office has something to lose.

At the agency level, yes. Every firm on this list publishes an English site and takes briefs in English, and the two largest work routinely with clients outside Georgia. The gap tends to appear one layer down, where the developer writing the code may work mainly in Georgian and communicate through an account manager. That is workable, but ask who will be on the call when you need to explain a bug, not just who will send the proposal.

Assume nothing and get it written down. In practice you should own the domain, the hosting account and the source code, and you should hold the admin credentials yourself rather than through the agency. A common trap in this market is the agency registering the domain in its own name as part of a bundled package, which turns a routine supplier change into a negotiation. Ask for a repository handover or a full export at launch, and check whether ongoing maintenance is a service you can leave or a condition of keeping the site online.

WordPress is the right answer more often than agencies selling custom work will admit. If the site is pages, a blog, a contact form and a basic shop, a CMS build costs less, ships sooner and lets your own staff edit it. Move to a custom build when the site is really an application, meaning user accounts, bookings, complex pricing logic, or an integration with a system you already run. The firms on this list split fairly cleanly along that line, and a good one will tell you which side you are on before quoting.

A landing page is a matter of days. A standard company site is typically three to six weeks, and BLH quotes a 3 to 12 week window across its tiers, which is a realistic spread. Custom applications run in months, not weeks, and any agency promising a complex build in two weeks is either reusing a template or has not read the brief. The single biggest cause of overrun in this market is content, so have your text, photos and product data ready before the build starts.
