Getting a website started can be daunting if you're new to the internet, or if you're not fluent with the language of computers. There are three basic steps to the process: Domain, Hosting and Design. Boddi Design can help you with any or all of these steps.
- Domains: Your web-designer can help you choose a domain name, based on your needs. He can also perform the registration on a yearly or mult-year basis for you. Typical cost are $50 per year; adding on $25 for each multi-year renewal.
- Hosting: This is literally renting space on someone's computer to store your website. Computers that are specially designed to host websites are called "web servers" - they literally "serve" the pages to visitors who request them. Due to competition in the hosting field, prices have come down to a level that small businesses and individuals can easily afford. Your web-designer can also help you choose a hosting plan according to your needs. Hosting plans for personal sites or small non-commerce sites can start as low as $25 per year. Larger sites, or sites with demanding performance needs, such as database and e-commerce activity can range from $5 to $25 per month in hosting costs.
- Design: That's US! A web designer will work with you to choose the layout, organization and design of your site, as well as coaching you on content quality and optimizing your site for search engine placement. Your web-designer will work within your budget to achieve the best deal you can get for your investment. Personal web-sites, or small business sites can start in the range of $200 to $600 to setup, including your 1st year's registration and hosting fee.
