FAQs

Answer: There are three basic website development charges:

• You will need to pay a company to register a domain name (a web address) for your website. Check out www.godaddy.com. They are inexpensive, reliable, and provide very good customer service. Beware: Godaddy will try to sell you lots of services you probably don't need before they let you pay to register a domain name.
• You must pay a website hosting service to store your website files and keep your website on the Internet. I recommend Stormer Hosting. The cost starts at $50.00/year for my clients only.
• You will need to hire someone to design, develop & maintain your website. I charge $40.00/hour for this service.

Call or email me for more detailed information about these costs, which depend, of course, on what you want a website to do for you, and how long it takes to build it.
