I rent my dedicated webspace from NamesCo. The company has a very good reputation,
and also supplies quality broadband.
If you are interested, use this link. Need advice?
Ask me. I’ll get an affilliate fee, and will credit your account with me, to the
value of £20 plus VAT. Domain names are best renewed through me, as I get 50% discount.
I only charge you the cost price to me for domain registration and renewal anyway.
MUCH?
HOW
I charge £32.00 (+VAT, as on all these prices) per hour for the work I do.
For a very basic website, the minimum seems to be around £250 BUT that is going to be three or four simple pages only. The techie stuff takes time anyway. Beyond that depends on the complexity e.g. on-line forms, and how much you give me of the text, pictures, logos, etc. (and the quality!) A usual sort of small restaurant site with all the bits like email setup, will be around the £400 - 500 mark. An example of extra cost is the map on the Angel Hotel site, which took three hours work. But once done, has lots of uses. Look at...

Hosting on a fast dedicated-quality server: minimum £8.00 per calendar month, three months in advance, plus back-up and maintenance, think £5-10 per month (min. £3.00). £15 to £20 is the usual total monthly fee.

The key to keeping website costs down, is to do your homework ahead. Think about the pages you might need, which means working out what you want to really say, and write some text in say, Works or Word. Do a very basic layout on a sheet of A4 paper. I can take that stuff plus as many pics (don’t worry too much about the quality!) as you have, and start from there.
Search engine work, adwords and such, cots about £40 set up. ‘Pay-per-click’ when a punter comes to your site. 12 - 20p. a hit? Bit more at the start, to ‘establish a presence’.
WebsiteTrafficReport.com can monitor your site, so we know the exact hits, which pages are viewed and how, when, where the punters came from, and very importantly, search engine terms they used. This can be very useful. Costs £6.50 per month, but note, extra code has to go into ALL your pages, so there are small extra start-up costs too. Ask.
Domain names: for a .co.uk domain, £6.00 (£10.00 renewal) for two years, and £18.00 (£30.00 renewal) for a .com. Domains transferred in free. I charge you only the discounted (50%) cost to me.
Setting up email through your site - ˝ to an hour set-up? ‘Dog’s bollocks’ spam filtering if you need it, through OnlyMyEmail.com, about £1.50 per month.
