Order UI/UX design for a website or app: prices and offers
What you are really ordering
UI/UX design is not just “a nice picture”. It usually has several parts: research and the logic of user journeys (UX), screen diagrams (wireframes), an interactive prototype and the final visual design (UI). Separately come a design system or UI kit and preparing files for developers.
Designers often offer different scopes: some draw only finished screens to your brief, while others first study the audience and competitors. That is exactly why prices can differ greatly, and you cannot compare them without a breakdown.
How to find a designer on BlaBlaPrice
You write one request: what we are designing, how many screens, what references you have. Designers reply in the chat with offers that give a price or what it depends on, timing, the scope of work and examples. They can see how their offer looks compared with others, so they often improve their terms. Reviews are shown next to each one. You pass contacts only to the provider you choose.
What to put in your request
- What we are designing — a landing page, website, online shop, mobile app, web service.
- Number of screens — pages or screens, and whether responsive versions are needed.
- Scope of work — research, wireframes, prototype, UI, design system.
- Niche and audience — for example, an online school.
- Tool and handover — whether you need Figma, a UI kit, layouts prepared for developers.
- Brand and references — whether you have a logo, brand colours, examples you like.
- Experience — case studies of similar projects.
- Timing and budget — when you need the result and the sum, if you want to name one.
Example: “I need the design of a mobile app for an online school: about 15 screens, a prototype and UI in Figma with a UI kit. I have a logo and references. I would like case studies of mobile apps. To be finished in 3 weeks, budget up to $850.”
How to compare offers
Check what is offered on equal terms: the number of screens, whether wireframes and a prototype are included, how many rounds of revisions, and whether you get source files and rights to the designs. Ask whether the design is adapted to mobile sizes or is desktop only.
Look at portfolios of similar products: the design of a landing page and of a complex web service need different skills. Ask what the process looks like: how many stages, when interim results are shown and who approves them.
Common mistakes
- Asking to “make it nice” without references or a description of the audience: there will be many revisions.
- Not agreeing the handover: a developer needs structured layers, components and styles.
- Paying in full in advance without stages.
- Confusing design with front-end development: they are different jobs.
If you also need visual materials for the brand, see logo and brand identity design or print and banner design. How the service works is on the “How it works” page.
