How much should a web site cost? How much should I pay for a website? The fact is, some websites are only worth $100 or $200 (like a simple static website with a template design, blog or homepage, as an example). Others have literally millions of dollars of value in them (ebay.com, paypal.com, and other websites and databases with complex search criteria, a user sign up, custom made graphics, custom made promotions added on a regular basis, etc.) Ofcause, you don’t have to pay millions for your website. But you should know what you’re paying for.

Lets split website cost into two common groups: web site components costs and development, maintenance and support costs. The following figures can be applied to estimating the cost of a web site components:

• Domain Name $1.99/year to $99.99/year (depending on domain);
• Hosting $50 to $600 a year (depending on traffic, disk space and website features);
• Website design and graphics $100 to $2500 (depending on design technology);

General technologies we use to build a website are usability, templates and custom graphics design, flash, search engine optimization, rss, content management systems; system/network administration; web security, information security; professional knowledge of such programming languages as php, html, xml, css, javascript/jquery/ajax, sql, plsql, c++ and other specific languages and libraries. There are a lot more secondary technologies that we use in website development and this is not something that can be learned for a few weeks or months. It is require a lot of time for serious learning and daily training during many years. That's why our development and support team consists of educated people with Masters degree in "computer systems engineering", "computer science" and related fields with minimum 10 years of work experience.

Based upon our experience, development of business website usually takes about 90-160 hours (1 month of job, based on our experience for a 20 page business website and depending on website features). Our price plan is hourly based and we charge $35/hour. That's why our price for development starts from $3150. Website development can be also included into a hosting, support and maintenance contract. In this way, you will get a long development process and employers of your company can be engaged in development also (with our help) for content and graphics maintenance. Often, the contract is a good choice for our clients because usually it is difficult for a client to provide all required content documents in time.
