Tacloban is the regional center of Eastern Visayas and the economic hub serving Leyte, Samar, and Biliran. Its web design market is SME-dominated, with retail, F&B, education, and healthcare leading demand.
The short answer
Most Tacloban and Eastern Visayas SMEs fit Starter (₱65K–₱85K) or Business (₱120K–₱180K). Pricing is consistent with Manila — base rates don’t change by city. What varies is scope and content emphasis.
The Tacloban market in 2026
