The verdict in three sentences
A dental practice website in Bellevue costs roughly 12 000 to 50 000+ USD from an Eastside or Seattle agency in 2026, and 3 000 to 12 000 USD from a freelancer, depending on pages, booking and languages. Kolonell builds the same core site for a fixed 2 900, 4 900 or 8 900 USD, delivered in 3 to 4 weeks (Premium: written schedule, usually 4 to 6 weeks), with native English copy and calls on Pacific Time. Before you sign, break each quote down line by line and add 36 months of fees: that is where the real gap between offers appears.
Where does the money go in a Bellevue agency quote?
Most Seattle area agencies bill by the hour behind a project price, with hourly rates commonly published between 100 and 200 USD and higher for senior strategy work. The breakdown below is an illustrative 2026 ballpark, built from public rate cards, Clutch.co agency profiles listing minimum project sizes, and freelance platform rates (Upwork, Clutch listings). It shows how a mid-range dental site reaches its price, not what any specific agency charges.
| Line item | Illustrative agency hours | At 100 to 200 USD/hour | Kolonell |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discovery and sitemap | 10 to 20 h | 1 000 to 4 000 USD | Included in the fixed price |
| Custom design (desktop and mobile) | 30 to 60 h | 3 000 to 12 000 USD | Included (custom on Premium) |
| Development and CMS | 40 to 80 h | 4 000 to 16 000 USD | Included |
| Copywriting for treatment pages | 15 to 40 h | 1 500 to 8 000 USD | Native copy included |
| Booking and form embeds | 5 to 15 h | 500 to 3 000 USD | Standard embed included |
| Accessibility and QA | 8 to 20 h | 800 to 4 000 USD | Included, WCAG 2.1 AA targeted |
| Project management | 10 to 25 % of total | Varies | Dedicated project manager included |
Many agencies also add a monthly care or marketing plan. That plan can be useful, but check whether it is optional and cancellable. The fixed Kolonell tiers are described on our international website offer.

What a Bellevue dental practice site needs
Bellevue's patient base is international and digital: tech employees on employer dental plans, families from many countries, and patients who compare practices on their phone before calling. The site has to answer three questions quickly: do you take my plan, can I book tonight, and do you speak my language.
- Treatment pages only for what you offer: check-ups and hygiene, implants, clear aligners, whitening, pediatric dentistry, emergency appointments. No promise of outcomes, no claims of being the best.
- Insurance page: list the PPO networks you are in, your out-of-network policy and financing options, factually and kept up to date.
- Online booking through your existing scheduler or practice management system (for example the online module of Dentrix, Eaglesoft or Open Dental). A link or standard embed is included; a custom integration is quoted on request.
- New patient forms via a HIPAA-capable form provider contracted by the practice.
- Languages: Kolonell writes natively in English and French (bilingual from Premium). Mandarin, Korean, Russian, Hindi or Spanish pages, common requests on the Eastside, are supplied by the practice or quoted separately.
- Fast mobile pages, team profiles with DDS/DMD credentials, hours, parking and a Google Business Profile consistent with the site.
Compliance frameworks exist and must be checked by the practice: the Washington State Dental Quality Assurance Commission and ADA guidance on advertising, FTC rules on reviews and testimonials, HIPAA for patient data, Washington's My Health My Data Act for consumer health data, and ADA accessibility litigation risk, with WCAG 2.1 AA as the common reference. This is not legal advice.
On proof, Kolonell can point to real projects only: TR Signing Group (trsigninggroup.com) in New Jersey, a bilingual EN/FR site with quote requests, booking calendar, live chat and back office, and Orven Properties (orvenproperties.com) in Dubai, a trilingual FR/EN/AR site.

Need a professional website?
Kolonell builds websites that attract clients, optimized for the Sénégalese market. Free quote in 2 minutes.
Illustrative example, not a real client: Dr. Kevin L., DDS, runs a general practice in Bellevue with a second chair schedule for pediatric patients. An Eastside agency quotes 28 000 USD plus a 400 USD/month plan with a 24 month commitment. A freelancer quotes 9 000 USD plus 120 USD/month.
Three-year totals: agency 28 000 + 36 x 400 = 42 400 USD; freelancer 9 000 + 36 x 120 = 13 320 USD; Kolonell Growth 4 900 + hosting assumed at 35 USD/month (1 260 USD) = 6 160 USD, plus maintenance after 3 months, quoted. He has his Mandarin pages translated by a professional translator, quoted separately, and still keeps more than 30 000 USD versus the agency. Want your own numbers? Request a free quote.
FAQ
What is a fair price for a dental website in Bellevue in 2026?
For a typical 8 to 20 page practice site, local agencies usually quote 12 000 to 30 000 USD and specialized dental agencies up to 50 000+ USD. Kolonell's fixed tiers are 2 900, 4 900 and 8 900 USD.
How do calls work with a remote team on Pacific Time?
Your project manager schedules Google Meet calls at a time that suits you and sends a written update every week. Most decisions happen in 3 to 5 short calls over the project.
Can you add Mandarin or Korean pages?
Kolonell writes natively in English and French only. Other languages are supplied by the practice or quoted separately, and the site structure is built to host them.
Does the site need to follow Washington health data rules?
Washington's My Health My Data Act and HIPAA may both be relevant depending on what data your forms collect, so your compliance advisor should confirm. Health forms run through a provider contracted by the practice, and this is not legal advice.
Who owns the site at the end?
You do: the domain is registered in the practice's name and 100 % of the access is handed over at delivery. The second 50 % payment is due only at delivery.
Let's scope your project. Share your treatments, your scheduler and the languages your patients speak, and we will propose a fixed-price tier delivered in 3 to 6 weeks. Request your free quote or see the international offer.
