There are 2 methods of building and publishing websites nowadays.1. Hire a web design company If you decide to go this way, be prepared to pay a lot of money upfront, depending on complexity of the project and the rates of designers and hosting company. Usually, a small website without any significant features will start at $300 USD and can go up to thousands of dollars as you add contact forms, galleries, online store, etc. Any changes to the site are slow and you pay money for every little change. The most important, you are not really in any control, and you have little flexibility. The advantage could be that in the hands of good designers and programmers you can create something exclusive and special. But again, good designers cost good money. 2.
