A website can cost as little or as much as you need it to. Your goals have the biggest influence on how much you pay. If you need a website to show your services, you can expect to pay less than someone needing an e-commerce store with user accounts, as the required work is less.

Item Cost Frequency
Website Design £500-£2000+ Once
Website Hosting £15-£60+ Monthly
Domain Name £10-£100+ Yearly
Maintenance £25-£100+ Monthly
Total £1000 first year then £500 / year

There are lots of different services you can pay for surrounding a website but the main costs associated with a website which everyone will need are;

  • getting the website designed (a professional web designer)
  • monthly hosting (keeping it visible online)
  • domain name (so people know where to find it)
  • maintenance/updates (for future changes)
A website is an investment

Having a website is an investment. Like any other investment, you can expect a return on your money. For example, if your website costs £50 per month to run and every month it brings you 2 new customers worth £50 each, then your website doesn’t cost you anything and even makes you £50 per month.

"How realistic is getting 2 new customers each month?". It doesn't happen overnight but it is more realistic than you think.
