Holiday Lighting Installation Website Cost in 2026: Real Pricing for Christmas Light Installers
TL;DR: A holiday lighting website should explain the package, installation window, service area and what happens after the season. TTM's website costs $2,499 to own or $297 a month to rent. Prepare it before you take bookings, and show only the dates, discounts and capacity your crew can actually honor.

Key takeaways
- Set the booking calendar from your own production capacity and local season; there is no universal date when every operator is nearly full.
- Make packages easy to compare by roofline, trees, decor and commercial scope, without claiming a fixed conversion uplift.
- Show limited availability only when it comes from an up-to-date schedule. Never invent remaining slots or reset a false countdown.
- Explain removal, storage, maintenance visits and light ownership before the customer pays.
Published TTM website options
These are our current published prices, not a survey of what every agency charges. Compare other quotes on the same scope and terms.
| Option | Build price | Ongoing terms |
|---|---|---|
| Own the custom site | $2,499 once | Code and content are yours; hosting is separate. Optional support is $47/month. |
| Rent the custom site | $297/month | Hosting, edits and new pages included; no setup fee or minimum term. The site comes down if you cancel. |
| DIY builder (opening soon) | $500 once | Build it yourself with two revision rounds; domain, custom logo and ongoing care are excluded. |
Scope to discuss before commissioning the site
- Residential and commercial pages with relevant installed examples
- Package descriptions showing what is included and excluded
- A current service-area and installation-window explanation
- Removal, storage and maintenance terms in plain language
- An inquiry form for property photos, approximate scope and desired dates
Agree the pages, supplied assets, integrations and acceptance checks in writing. These are planning items, not a promise that a standard build includes every custom feature. Test quote delivery and the mobile experience before launch.
Ownership and ongoing work
Buy the website and its code and content are yours. On a rental, your domain and the content you give us stay yours while the build remains in our accounts. You can buy it later with half of your monthly payments, capped at $1,500, credited toward $2,499. Rentals include hosting and edits. Optional support for an owned site is $47 a month and excludes hosting.
First-year website payments
Twelve rental payments total $3,564 ($297 × 12). Buying the build is $2,499; adding twelve months of optional $47 support makes $3,063, before hosting and your domain. The $500 DIY option has a different scope. These are payment totals, not forecasts of leads, jobs or return.
Get separate prices for any booking software, call tracking, sales-system work and advertising. That prevents an apparently cheap build from hiding the costs you actually need to run it.
Advertising and follow-up are separate decisions
A website and ads do not have to start a fixed number of days apart. First confirm the offer, service area, quote delivery and crew capacity. TTM ads management is $750 a month per service area, plus media spend paid directly to Google or Meta. Sales-system workflows are quoted on the call. One client per trade per service area applies while you are a client.
Frequently asked questions
When should marketing start? Work backwards from the first installation dates, your quote process and available crew days. Contact previous customers and prepare the site before opening new bookings; use your records to set the calendar.
Should removal be bundled? State clearly whether removal and storage are included, optional or unavailable. The important point is that the customer knows the complete service and price before booking.
Is commercial lighting worth offering? Compare the project scope, access, insurance requirements, payment terms and crew capacity. Ask commercial prospects about procurement deadlines rather than assuming one budget or signing month applies to all.
