Conclusion
Conclusion:
Combining the factors described in the previous sections will help
determine the cost of having a web site for your business. Some
of these costs, like hosting, will be recurring, while others, such
as site development, are generally a one time cost. The important
decision to be made is how much a site is worth to your business.
Think of your web site as a service that you offer to current and
potential customers, as well as a marketing tool. Understand why
you want a site that accurately represents your business. Finally,
as in all things, shop around. You'll find that the benefits of
having a web presence far outweigh the costs of developing and hosting
a site. Remember, if you want, you can probably have a web presence
for free, but a free site is probably not nearly as good as a site
that would cost just a little more.
While it is impossible to determine what your exact costs will
be, we can provide an approximate amount a small business can expect
to pay for a basic site. This amount is broken down below:
