What does a website cost per month to run?
The ongoing costs of a business website (domain, hosting, email and updates) and what to ask about each one, plus the optional MyBizOnline OS plans.
What are the monthly costs of a website?
A website’s running costs come from four things: the domain (your web address), hosting, business email on your own domain and updates after launch. Ask who looks after each one and what it costs each month or year. Our CRM and business tools are optional extras at £49, £79 or £129 per month; a website does not need them.
The four ongoing costs
Every website has some running costs. Ask about each of these before you agree a price.
- Domain: what does it cost to renew your web address, and who renews it?
- Hosting: where will the site be hosted, and what does that cost each month or year?
- Email: is a business email address on your own domain included, or is it a separate cost?
- Updates: who makes changes after launch, how do you ask for them and how are they charged?
Business software is optional
Our CRM and business tools are optional extras. Many clients just want a website, and that is fine.
If you later want enquiries, quotes and jobs in one place, MyBizOnline OS is £49, £79 or £129 per month, depending on the plan.
How to get a clear price
Send a short quote request with what you need and ask about running costs at the same time. A person reads every request and replies with a price or a few questions.
