Tilda website development: types of websites, cost and real cases 2026
Tilda is a website builder that combines the simplicity of a visual editor with the flexibility of setting up through Zero Block. On it, landing pages, corporate websites, portfolios, and small online stores are created. In the article, we explore what websites can actually be built on Tilda, how much it costs, how SEO is handled, and showcase projects from the portfolio of a branding agency.
What types of websites can be created on Tilda
Tilda is positioned as a tool for quickly launching websites without programming. But its capabilities are broader than they appear at first glance — the platform handles tasks that previously required a developer. Landing pages are the most popular type. One or two pages with a request form, CRM and analytics integration. Tilda offers hundreds of ready-made blocks, and Zero Block allows you to completely redraw the design to match the brand, without conforming to a template grid. Portfolios are needed by photographers, designers, and architects — where the visual part solves everything. Galleries, sliders, and parallax effects are handled by Tilda without additional plugins. Corporate websites — up to 15–20 pages: about the company, services, case studies, blog, contacts. Tilda supports a multi-page structure, menus, footer, and site search, so for a medium-sized business of this size, it's more than enough. Online stores — up to 100 products. There is a shopping cart, a payment module via Yandex.Kassa or Robokassa, and the ability to add product options by size and color. For catalogs with more than 100 items, it's worth considering a specialized solution — Tilda performs worse under load. Event websites — landing pages with registration, schedule, and map. Countdown timers and dynamic blocks can be assembled in a few days without a web designer. The agency's portfolio includes examples of all these types: from a catering company's landing page to a multi-page corporate website of a phyto-cosmetics center.
Tilda, WordPress, or a constructor: which one to choose
To understand which tool is best suited for your specific project, let's compare three options based on key parameters. Tilda is the golden middle ground between the flexibility of WordPress and the simplicity of a regular constructor. It is suitable for businesses that want to get a quality website without monthly technical maintenance, but with the ability to customize the design and SEO to their own needs, rather than to someone else's template. Check the current tariffs on the official Tilda website and hosting providers — subscription and hosting prices are reviewed more frequently than once a year.

How much does it cost to develop a website on Tilda
The price depends on the project complexity. Several factors influence it. The number of pages directly determines the workload: a landing page on 1–5 pages costs less than a corporate website on 10–15 pages simply because each page needs to be designed and filled separately. The level of customization is the second most important factor. Ready-made blocks are assembled quickly and cost less, while designing through Zero Block from scratch requires the designer's time and costs more — but the result won't look like dozens of other websites on the same platform. Next come integrations. Connecting CRM, payment systems, mailing services, analytics: each module adds development and testing hours. Content also affects the estimate: if the client provides texts and images — it's cheaper; if copywriting and photography are needed — it's more expensive. And finally, SEO setup: basic optimization (meta tags, sitemap) is usually included in the development cost, while advanced optimization with semantic work, microdata, and analytics setup is often paid separately. Approximate price ranges for turnkey development (the accuracy of figures should be confirmed with the contractor at the time of inquiry, as they change with the market): Landing (1–5 pages) — 50 000–120 000 ₽ Corporate website (5–15 pages) — 120 000–250 000 ₽ Online store (up to 100 products) — from 200 000 ₽ The exact cost is determined by the producer after the briefing — it's important to understand the tasks, timelines, and expectations. Gromov Branding develops websites on Tilda turnkey: from briefing to launch, with company branding taken into account.
SEO on Tilda: capabilities and limitations
Tilda provides sufficient tools for search engine promotion: title and description meta-tags for each page; headers h1–h6; alt-texts for images; Open Graph markup for social networks; Schema.org microdata — manually or via ready-made blocks; canonical URLs; robots.txt and sitemap.xml; redirects 301; SEO-friendly URLs (human-readable URLs). However, there are also limitations that are worth knowing in advance. It is difficult to implement a non-standard URL structure — for example, nesting like /category/subcategory/page cannot be implemented directly. There is no built-in system for large catalogs with a thousand or more products — third-party solutions will have to be connected or WordPress will have to be used. Plugin usage is limited: it is not possible to install arbitrary PHP code, the platform is closed at the architectural level. With proper site configuration, Tilda sites rank no worse than WordPress sites — the difference is usually not in the platform, but in how thoroughly the structure is developed. Gromov Branding embeds SEO at the design stage: page structure, meta-tags, and loading speed are planned before development begins, not added afterward.
Real cases from the portfolio
To better understand how Tilda works in practice, here are three examples from the agency's portfolio. Case 1: a catering company website. A landing page with a request form, CRM integration, and a menu catalog. Ready-made blocks were used with customization to the client's brand style. Result: launch within 3 week(s) and conversion to inquiry higher than the industry average for this segment. Case 2: a website for a center of phyto-cosmetology. A corporate site with a service catalog, blog, and online booking. Multi-page structure, responsive design, and integration with a booking service. Development time — 5 weeks (according to the agency's experience, this is the standard timeframe for a project of this scale). Case 3: a website for an annual analytical report. A multi-page landing page with animations, charts, and a PDF download form. Here, a Zero Block was specifically required — standard blocks would not have allowed assembling the necessary visual presentation of data. The client was satisfied with the final result. All three projects — and dozens of others — are available in the agency's portfolio.
Is Tilda suitable for an online store? Yes, if the catalog contains no more than 100 products. There is a shopping cart, integration with payment systems, and the ability to add variants — size, color, configuration. Is it difficult to migrate a site from Tilda to WordPress? You can export the content, but you'll have to redesign the look: Tilda uses its own block system, which cannot be directly converted into a WordPress theme. Do you need separate hosting for Tilda? No. Tilda provides hosting and CDN, you only pay for the platform tariff. What domains does Tilda support? Any — you can attach your own second-level domain. How much time does it take to develop a site on Tilda? From 2 weeks for a simple landing page to 2 months for a complex corporate site with integrations. Can you make a multilingual site on Tilda? Yes — through creating copies of pages in other languages or using third-party services like Weglot. What guarantees does Gromov Branding provide? Adherence to deadlines, mockups that you can confidently show to management, and support after launch.
