Why do some websites cost a few hundreds and others cost several thousands? So many people ask me regularly on what is the difference between a website that costs only a few hundreds and one that costs several thousands? Normally these people thought that the price difference is because one web designer charges more than another, which is actually an incorrect line of thinking. Simply the old rule of what you pay is what you get applies. Normally a website that cost a few hundreds is a basic website with standard features. These websites can look very professional and provide a good image for your business. But if you want a website with features like shopping cart, advanced backend modules, stock control, customer management, order tracking, online payments, high security, fully SEO complaint etc.. All of these features require a lot of work to build them into a website, so these are the types of website that can cost several thousands. Sometimes price may differ between web design companies for quality and other reasons. But the most common way that most web designers used to work out the costs of a website is by calculating the amount of time it will take to design all the graphics and complete all the coding, so the more advanced and complex a website is the higher the charges.

Many people ask me if it’s easy to build a website because there are so many off the shelf tools that allow a complete novice user to build a website. There are hundreds of tools in the market that will allow anyone to build what looks like a website, but to build a website that functions correctly on the internet requires years of experience in programming and understanding how the internet functions. One of the biggest flaws in many tools is that they do not create websites that are SEO friendly, and as a result the websites are never indexed by any of the major search engine. If your website is not indexed regularly by the major search engines then your business will suffer, because many potential customers who are searching the internet for a business that offers your solution will never find your website.
