The average cost of remediation of five sample pages across all industry range from $5,000 to $20,000 per five pages depending on complexity, according to data based on [IBM's WCAG 2.0 Compliance Costing Model](https://pdfslide.net/documents/ibms-wcag-20-compliance-costing-model-phill-jenkins.html), presented by Phill Jenkins of IBM Research, Human Ability & Accessibility Center, and Dan Shire of IBM Interactive, IBM Canada. Websites receive a rating level of 1, 2, or 3 based on complexity. Which of these sounds like your company? - **Level 1:** You are a small business or company with no e-commerce whose site features basic information, such as hours and location. - **Level 2:** You have a simple online store or allow visitors to book appointments without a lot of customized features. - **Level 3:** You are a larger company with complex or customized e-commerce functionality. Most websites typically have at least five pages or page templates: homepage, about us page, contact us page, FAQ, and a blog (no matter how many posts your blog has on it). E-commerce sites often come with additional product pages, checkout pages, and more. Here are some average page counts based on site complexity in Step 1: - **Level 1:** 5-15 pages - **Level 2:** 16-25 pages - **Level 3:** 26+ pages Consider the frequency with which you make in-depth updates to your site code. Small businesses may have an agency that handles occasional fixes, and larger companies typically have an in-house development team that makes weekly updates. ## Page Footer ## **Sign Up** for the **UsableNet Blog** Join our mailing list to receive email notifications when we publish a new blog, infographic, whitepaper or newsletter.
