Why is it expensive to setup a small scale website?
Posted on October 21st, 2009 by admin
I’m reading a book on setting up a business from home, which said that even a small website will cost 1000s of dollars up front, but why? I have estimated that the total cost of my website is about $200 since I have bought a web site template with a shopping cart that I have customised myself, and I’m going to go with inmotion hosting which costs about $8 per month to host an ecommerce site. So the total cost is approximately $500. A merchant ID will take a small fee from every product I sell online and I will probably try and increase my market exposure through Amazon and Ebay. For my first year of trading I have set the goal of selling a 1000 units. So why is it going to be so expensive? What are the hidden costs?

Hey, the reason that they may say it will cost a lot is they may be trying to sell something or suggest you try a product. As you have a template and everything else in place then i can’t see it costing any where near a $1000.
If you want to have a fantastic web site check out site build it.com, they give you the website, hosting and an array of tools to help you get traffic to your site; Plus they teach you about Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
Also i would suggest advertising on google & ad words as it is a great way of generating traffic.
Hope that helps!
