Prices on the Page, Not Behind a Sales Call

Four published tiers cover most situations, from a first landing page to a fully custom commerce platform. All tiers include responsive design, SSL, and source-code handover; the first version of a standard build can be live in as little as 7 days. Prices are starting points — the written quote fixes the number before work begins.

Maintenance is optional. You can run the site yourself, come back for one-off changes billed by the hour, or subscribe to a monthly plan. Plans have short minimum terms — stated below, not buried in fine print — and you can stop when the term ends.

AI integration connects chat support, inquiry triage, knowledge bases, and mail assistants into the website you already have. Every AI project includes 30 days of free maintenance; after that, an optional support plan costs NT$3,000 per year. Crawler projects cover data extraction, supplier syncing, and competitor price monitoring.

Some services depend too heavily on scope, budget, and market for an honest flat price. For these we prepare a written custom quote after a free consultation — we will not print a number here that we cannot stand behind:

• Google Ads management — the base management fee starts at NT$3,600 per month, with a suggested media budget from NT$12,000 per month paid to Google; the final quote reflects your campaign types and goals.
• SEO engagements — the audit is free; ongoing work is scoped from what the audit finds.
• Telegram bot development — priced by workflow complexity and integrations.
• Adult ad network campaigns — media plans quoted per market and budget.

Why do our prices run lower than much of the market? We use a semi-self-service model: third-party infrastructure — cloud, email, AI APIs — is billed to you directly at vendor rates, so you never pay an agency markup on services you could hold yourself. The same principle applies to ownership: source code and accounts are yours, so there is no rent to keep paying us. If a price on this page looks out of date, treat the Chinese service pages as authoritative and ask us to confirm in writing.

A published price only helps if you also know what happens after you say yes. OceanAds (海水不可斗量數位工作室) runs every website project through the same seven steps, so you always know what you are paying for and what comes next:

1. Send a short brief. Tell us what you sell, how you take orders or inquiries today, and what you want the site to do. The contact form, LINE, Telegram or email all work; a few paragraphs is enough.
2. Get a free architecture draft. We prepare an architecture draft and demo at no charge, so you can judge our thinking before spending anything. If the draft does not fit, you walk away owing nothing.
3. Receive a written quote. The quote fixes the number, the milestones and a projected launch date. The tiers on this page are starting points; the written quote is the figure you actually pay.
4. Pay the deposit and start the build. A 50% deposit starts the project. We build the pages, connect payment, logistics or inquiry flows where your plan includes them, and set up tracking.
5. Review the first version. A standard build can have its first version live in as little as 7 days; complex custom platforms typically take 2–4 weeks. You review it on a real URL, not a slide.
6. Accept, pay the balance, take ownership. After acceptance and launch, the remaining 50% is due. Source code is handed over, and the cloud, domain and analytics accounts are registered in your name.
7. Choose what happens next — or nothing. Maintenance, Google Ads management and SEO are optional add-ons. You can also run the site yourself or bring in any other developer, because you hold the source.

In one sentence: with OceanAds (海水不可斗量數位工作室), you see a free draft before you pay, a fixed written quote before work starts, a first version in as little as 7 days, and full ownership of code and accounts at handover.

A starting price means little on its own. The table below sets OceanAds' published figures against the three alternatives most Taiwanese SMBs also consider. The alternative columns are qualitative characterizations, not quotes — costs for platforms, freelancers and agencies vary too widely for an honest single number. For a fuller breakdown, see our side-by-side comparison and the 2026 Taiwan digital agency guide.

OceanAds prices are built around businesses that will launch, take orders, track results and keep improving. That model may not suit everyone, and we would rather say so here than in a sales call:

• One-off static pages with no follow-up. If you only need a single page and do not plan to track or iterate on it, a template builder is probably cheaper and good enough.
• Purely offline businesses. If you have no need to take orders, collect inquiries or attract traffic online, a custom system adds cost without adding value.
• Very small budgets. Micro-sellers who cannot yet afford a custom admin panel or integrations may be better served by a platform store first; migrating later is a routine path.

It does suit SMBs that need a corporate site, store or admin panel; brands that want steady Google Ads and SEO traffic; teams that want AI or bots to take over repetitive work; and owners who do not want to be tied to a platform or vendor and prefer to hold their own source code and cloud accounts.
