Online -Websites have become the main marketing platforms for every business; with thousands of sites being constructed daily.
These websites come in many forms e.g organization websites, eCommerce websites, blogs et Cetera.
Therefore, what does it take to have and run a commercially viable website anywhere? The good news is that, all over the world, websites cost almost the same. But only defer in charges due to other modifications and specifications one can admire to have.
That said, a website will require a web developer, buy a responsive theme, domain name, hosting company among a few other things. These, fortunately, may not cost more than 200 dollars or sh 20,000.
If you are lucky to have some website development skills, this cost could go as low as $ 50 only since most of the things can be self-done.
Among the factors that can influence website pricing are: unique specifications where some people may only need basic functionality which may not take more time of the developer.
It also depends on the rapport you have with the developer and whether you want some coding on the theme or not. Coding could cost you even $1200 – an equivalent of sh 120,000 – on a website. Remember that coded themes load much faster are efficient.
After that is said and done, you will also have to be ready to maintain the website. Owning a website cannot just end and building it; you will have to use extra cash to keep it up and running.
For example, add-ons or plugins may need updates, the website will also require annual renewals both domain and hosting.
Remember, websites break down any time. You must be ready to bring it back to life since it is only through a steady website that one can earn a decent living.
A well-kept website or blog could earn someone millions of dollars monthly or annually depending on its monetization strategy and loading time.
