Website PRICING
The prices below are provided to give you an estimated idea of how much a website would cost. Please be aware that depending on your requirements, prices may vary.
For example, a website consisting of three pages would cost $450 ($150 per page) for web page layout, $30 to register a domain name and to set it up on the server and $10 a month for hosting. Total cost for one year paid upon completion of website would be $600.00.
Domain Name Registration
Depending where you register your domain, the suffix (.com or .ca) and for how long it should be in the $7.95 - $24.95 (per year) range.
Website Hosting
The average informational website is $10 per month paid annually. Currently, HostPapa.ca is offering a fantastic deal for hosting and domain name registration. I highly recommend them. You can sign up through the above text link, or use the HostPapa button at the bottom of the page or contact me to help you set up your hosting account.
Website Pages (minimum of 3 pages)
Every website is different and the only way to really get an accurate estimate per page is by having a consultation over the phone or in person. The average informational website is $150 per page.
Search Engine In-Depth Analysis
Search engine optimization comes standard with your website. What that means is that if you have a small niche market and your webpage is optimized right, you will probably find yourself at the top of the search engines because a lot of the competition does NOT know how to optimize a webpage. If, however, your competition is fierce and there are 9 million other websites 'literally' to compete against, then the odds are that it will be more difficult to rank well.
Although there are no guarantees, everything will be done to optimize your website by making sure that:
1. the html code is flawless
2. meta tags and keywords are in place
3. alt tags are being used
4. headers are present
5. and special wording has been positioned in strategic places on your webpage so that you have a good chance of ranking high in the most popular search engines.
