  • Webmastering

How much time will it take?
Time is as variable as price. However, most basic sites with a handful of pages and very few "special features" (such as polls, forums, and java script effects) will take only a matter of days. Sites that are a bit more complicated and are much larger in size (such as 20-50 pages) with many more "special features" could take 1 to 2 weeks. A site with a full php shopping cart system and every feature possible could take as much as a few months or longer.

Cost This site (the current one you are viewing) would probably cost around $300.00
There are two aspects to cost. The first and most acute of which is the creation of your web site. This is most likely the largest sum of money you will spend on your web site. It requires the creation and/or adaptation of a web design to meet your needs. Additionally, it requires extensive customer/business relations to discover exactly what it is you are looking for in a web site. For a basic web site (such as 4 pages) without a whole lot of accents or images, you will end up spending about $200.00. To get a site that is a bit more sophisticated, with many images, and even customized thumbnails, it will most likely cost around $400.00 to $500.00. Sites that utilize a full setup and lots of nice features typically run for about $1,000, but such sites are not meant for private use. Additionally, much larger sites could run as much as several thousand+ if they would like to create an entire php site with "the works" (shopping carts and all).

The second aspect is seldom thought about, but it can add up. Hosting a web site costs money, no matter what site it is or what business you are hosting it through. This is because somewhere in the world is a server that stores your web site information, it isn't magical as some might think. This storage requires space on someone's server. This space is generally limited on free hosting web sites. These hosting web sites almost always advertise on your site to attempt to pay the fees you are charging them. While these fees are negligible, and you can get a www.webiota.com/you site at the very miniscule cost of 5$/year, you will end up paying more for a www.you.com unique domain site.

These unique domain sites must, no matter the person or their connections, cost all unique domain holders a certain amount to continue to register the web sites. Because we go through Hostica, the cost is around $8.00/year. Additionally, your web site will count for a "domain slot" at hostica. This domain slot will cost you for "hosting." We offer to host your site from our account to save you some money; however, this hosting is most likely going to cost you at least 1$/month, adding up to a total of around 20$/year. Although, when all things are considered, 20$/year for a www.you.com vs 5$/year for a www.webiota.com/you site, seems to be little more to pay for your own domain name. This is why we encourage all users to sign up with these services. If you would like, we can sign up for you, sending you the bills; however, we are more than happy to help you set up an automatic charge system with them so that you no longer have to deal with us or them, and you simply recieve about 20$/year of billing.
