monty Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 (edited) Seems a bit expensive! Costs of a website breaks down into 3 parts: 1) Registration of your URL, at the moment this costs less then 10US$/year for a .com domain, cheaper if you pay for 5 years upfront... 2) Hosting (equals renting harddrive space on a server). I host several low traffic sites on 3ix servers, at a cost of less then 500 Baht/year/site. Easy, can be paid at Kasikorn bank...High traffic/big sites would need a more expensive package, but the 500/year carries far for a new website. 3) Design/maintainance of your site. Here the sky is the limit. You can do it yourself, give it out to a friend (lots of people around able to design a basic html site) or go to a proffesional design office... 24000 Baht I guess would give you a quite nice site here in LOS. Best bet would be to find a capable Thai designer on a freelance basis, and just help him out with the English language... I don't see the point going with free (limited)servers such as tripod-lycos, atfreeweb etc. when the yearly cost for your own domain and a decent hosting package comes to less then 1000 Baht/year (85 Baht/month)!

cdnvic Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 You can have a website with email addresses, a forum, a gallery, an online shop, and its own radio station for less than $25mo if you want. A Basic website and a forum for member interaction for less than $10. http://www.htmlgoodies.com/ Gives you an intro to building websites http://www.nvu.com/ Easy to learn free html editor http://www.phpbb.com/ Free forum software http://gallery.menalto.com/ Free photo gallery software http://www.oscommerce.org/ Free online shop software I'd register a domain ($10-$20), get a basic $5-$10 hosting package, and if you are not wanting to build it yourself you can probably get someone to set you up for alot less than what Yahoo wants. cv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
