Low Cost Budget To Start Up Your Web Site
by Brian Gan |
So, now you have planned to get a web site up for your business. How much does it cost? I would say it depends on what you need and how far your plan is.
You can have a single static content web site built by web designers for $200 per page, or maybe $150. Some fresh graduated freelancers will even charge it for as low as $50. But you yourself should know when to pay for quality and reliability.
To look for better web sites, you can get good quotes from several web solution companies. Try to look at their work and ask for online demos. Pretend to be technical literate and ask about ODBC, database, bandwidth limits, name servers and see how fast they can answer you even that you can't catch their answers. Finally, describe what you want the web site to be a great tool for your business. Ask for good features, maintenance, support, interactive contents, statistic reports and reliable server. Let them get a proposal done and quote you the price.
How much will it cost then? Based on market price, I will say such web site will cost around $2000 to $4000 or $6000 if you get an expensive quote. Why are they charging a few thousands for something that you can't touch physically? Instead, with $2000 you can get a 29" flat screen television that you can watch everyday.
The charges are normally based on the time sales person need to spend follow up on your case that include the traveling, phone call expenses and commission. Back in the office, the company needs to pay for programmers and designers to work on your web site where most of them get their salaries around $2000 per month. Lastly, they have to cover their monthly bills and rental and the balance will be the net profit.
So, a few thousands are not expensive at all compare to the time, cost and manpower that are needed to construct your web site. Some more, remember that they need to support your calls for a few months after the project is delivered.
However, would you want to close your eyes, get a couple of thousands out of your pocket and just do it? Or, is there a smarter way to get it all with less money to pay? Please go through the following comparison table for the alternative choices that you can make.
