Have you ever asked a web designer “How much does it cost to build a website?” Did you get a straight answer? Maybe you didn’t get an answer at all.
Maybe you got the, “Can YOU come to OUR office to discuss things, then we can suggest a price?”
So, you call them for a service…and they want you to make the effort to get your answer. Frustrating, I know.
Look no further: This is how much a website (from our services) will cost.
Aside from our service fees there are other separate fees that you will need to consider: Do you already have a domain purchased for your website? If not, that can cost you anywhere from $8 – $15 annually. What about a hosting account for the website? Annually they can cost $125 – $175. For an Ecommerce website you may also need to purchase a dedicated IP address ($3 – $10 per month). Purchasing an SSL Certificate ($50 – $150 annually) is also a must. What about photos? If you have no photos for your website then you may need to purchase royalty free stock photos. Adobe Stock is a great source for this.

Why do I even need Social Media Integration or Search Engine Optimization?
Because without them it is highly unlikely your new website will ever come close to page 1 in Google. Unfortunately, simply buying a website does not guarantee that your phone will begin to ring.
This website is now ranked #1 on Google for over 20 keywords. The same techniques can be applied to your business website.
