web site cost for plan B

[stacks]

Right it's time for plan B to kick into life so I'm starting to put together my business plan. I will of course need a good website and I'm no developer!

So, how much should I budget for well designed site that would be easy to update on a daily basis. It doesnt have to link to any other backend systems like a DB or payment system as it's only for information, some pictures, links and perhaps some video clips for people to see. It would also need a web form to complete for email questions from customers.

Yeah I know thats not much of a spec to go on but you get the sort of thing I'm after.

If anyone can tell me how much the thing would cost to host and any recommendations on who to use that would also be useful.

Thanks!

Under £1000 depending on how good a job you want with regards to any images / css out there.

Have a look at the costs of some of the US companies - from my experience, they tend to be a bit cheaper. I use PowWeb for my company websites, and they've not let me down yet...

I am to set a web-site aswell. I dont know if i need this yet as I am a 1 person ltd. However i figure that a can do the website myself , after all you can use many apps to do that. Secondly I remember that ASP hosting was around 100 gbp/year i think.

Bottom of the market. OK if that's what you want.
