Entrepreneur: Biting The Bullet On The High Cost Of Website Development
Consultant Mikal E. Belicove parses the various costs involved in developing and launching a quality website for your new business.
“Off-the-shelf content management systems and design templates have made building and managing a website easy and affordable for small-business owners with modest needs. Not counting your sweat equity, you can build and maintain a small website for less than $250. But, honestly, do you really want to bank your company’s online presence and messaging on a low-cost website? Working with a full-service graphic design and web programming firm is a more savvy business decision.
Using a professional team, you can expect to pay from $1,000 for a very basic site to more than $50,000 for a larger site with custom graphics, programming and other options.”
