The verdict in three sentences
A multilingual B2B showcase website in Berlin costs, in 2026, between EUR 8,000 and 18,000 for the FR/EN/DE foundation, with EUR 1,500 to 3,800 per additional language. It is a lighter investment than an institutional site, but multilingual SEO and localisation make all the difference in competitive markets. Budget 6 to 9 weeks and maintenance of EUR 180 to 520/month to keep content and performance sharp.
The multilingual showcase budget, item by item
Berlin's B2B economy is deeply international: a German-only site lets French, British and Italian prospects slip away. Here is the 2026 pricing structure.
| Item | 2026 range (EUR) | What drives it |
|---|---|---|
| Multilingual showcase foundation | 8,000 - 18,000 | Number of pages, design |
| Additional language (per language) | 1,500 - 3,800 | Volume, translation included |
| Multilingual SEO | included - 2,500 | Number of target markets |
| Quote / contact form | 1,200 - 4,000 | Journey complexity |
| Maintenance | 180 - 520 /month | Update frequency |
| Hosting + CDN | 40 - 140 /month | Traffic, zones |
Multilingual SEO is not cosmetic: each language must target its own local keywords ("B2B services Berlin" in EN, "services B2B Berlin" in FR, "B2B Dienstleistungen Berlin" in DE). Without it, the translated version never ranks.

| Barcelona | 7,500 - 17,000 EUR | 6 - 9 wks | ES/EN/FR |

Mini case study
Thomas, managing director of a B2B events agency in Berlin (seminars and incentives across Germany), wants an EN/DE/FR site. Foundation at EUR 11,000, two additional languages at EUR 2,800 each (EUR 5,600), quote-request module at EUR 2,500, multilingual SEO at EUR 2,000. Initial investment: EUR 21,100, plus EUR 350/month for maintenance and hosting. Before, his German site captured 8 quote requests/month, all domestic. With well-ranked English and French, he reaches 19 requests/month, 7 of them international. At a 25% close rate and an average event budget of EUR 14,000, those 7 requests add roughly EUR 294,000 of annual pipeline. The site pays for itself within the first quarter.
FAQ
Multilingual showcase or institutional site: what is the price gap? A multilingual showcase (EUR 8,000 to 18,000 foundation) is far lighter than an institutional site with CMS and governance. It targets fast conversion, not complex editorial management.
Is multilingual SEO really included? It is in our packages up to a certain volume; beyond that budget up to EUR 2,500. It is essential: without per-language keywords, your translated versions stay invisible.
How much is the third language? Between EUR 1,500 and 3,800 in 2026 depending on page volume and translation. English plus one neighbouring language are the most profitable combinations.
What timeline for a trilingual site? Budget 6 to 9 weeks: 2 of design, 3 to 4 of development, 1 to 2 of translation and per-language QA.
Localise or translate? In B2B, localisation (tone, examples, cultural references) markedly raises conversion. It costs 15 to 20% more than raw translation but pays back quickly.
