Web design cost varies a great deal from one designer to the next. In fact, it is safe to say there is no universally accepted price for any web design project. However, in this article, I will attempt to give you an idea of what it will cost you to design a functional quality website. The breakdown I give here will be greatly influenced by my own 10-year experience as a web developer and interaction with several other top-notch web designers in Nigeria.
The cost of creating a website can be divided into 3 basic categories. These include Domain Name, Hosting fee, and programmer’s fee. So below is an outline of all the monies you are likely to spend on your next web design project. Also beware that since there is no fixed price, I will stick to price ranges.
Domain name
N3000 – N5000 per year. This is the price you are most likely to pay for a name that is free and available for registration. If you need a .ng domain, the price goes up a bit at between N10,000 – N15,000.
