The cost of websites does vary quite considerably depending on a number of factors:
1/ What sort of website you are looking for?
2/ How many pages you want the website to have?
3/ What features you would like the website to have?
There are different sorts of websites depending on the need of the company.
There are static websites, which are just web pages giving set information, the information not really needing changed or modified; this site is fairly cheap to set up and maintain. These sort of sites cost anything from 1,000 - 3,000 depending on the number of pages.
There are CMS websites (custom managed system), which is a kind of upgrade to the static website. These websites can be updated and modified by the client or webmaster. These sort of websites are used for having information updated or changed (things like weekly offers, changing menus for a restaurant etc. These websites typically cost anything from 3,000 - 5,000
There are e-commerce websites which are sites that have payment transactions going through them. On-line shops, subscriptions etc. and these cost anything from 5,000 - 10,000.
So depending on what sort of site you are looking for, there are different options available.
In terms of features on the website, these can range from multi-media, or having music files playing/voice over applications and downloadable files. Also having login areas for customers will push the price of a website up as things like security and passwords need to be considered. There is also the maintenance aspect to be considered which can push the costs of a site up (a little like the running costs of a car, there is the initial outlay of the capital cost, but then there are the on-going costs to be factored in).
