How much does it cost to make a website?
The cost of a website can be a huge deal if you do not know what you are expecting. The cost really depends on what type of a site you are planning to make.
If you are going to make a blog, then your good with about $8 for a domain name per year.
You hosting might cost 5-10$ per month.
If you are making a website for a business, or a website that you will advertise and drive “crazy” traffic to it, then you might still be good for the same amount of money for a domain but..you will have to buy a better hosting service.
Domain = $8/year
Web hosting costs = 10-20$ per month.
For these prices you have to do a good research and get a reliable hosting service. I recommend Hostgator.com
If you already have your content and files coded and ready to go, good for you. But if you have nothing right now, you can go 2 ways.
- Use a free system like WordPress, SMF, PHP-Nuke ect.
- Get someone to code a script for you.
The cost of a coder will depend on what you are getting done and who you are getting it done with. I recommend you go to forums.digitalpoint.com and find a coder there, it will be much cheaper then going to a professional company.
You could also do it yourself as well…that’s if you know how to of course.
