How Much Did You Invest In Your Website?

[Allegrif]

If you have a website for your business, how much did it cost you? That is if you didn't make it yourself. I'm curious to know what others believe the 'going rate' to be for a standard, not overly-complex business website.

I didn't really know which category to put this in, so I figured it might go here.

I personally wouldn't pay more than a couple of hundred to get set-up, with a maintainence cost of less than £50/month, but that's probably because I know how to do most of it myself.

I'd disagree with 'if you have £5k to spend, spend it'. Half of our business comes from clients who have spent this kind of money on a website only to be hugely let down. We then start again from scratch and produce a better product for a few hundred quid.

I built my own, so other than the hours it took to build no other investment was needed.

I would say for start you are just crawling so I wouldn't spend a lot of money on paid advertising but try to look natural probably after year or two I would start to invest more money eventualy

It can go anywhere between £500-£1000, and it's not a one-time investment. We have to put effort and money timely as we need to optimize website content, design, landing page, etc. We also have to work on user engagement things to increase website conversions. Therefore, it is an ongoing task of creating and managing a website for business.

We paid the upper end of that so I'd agree that's a pretty fair price
