How much does E-commerce webdesigning usually cost?

I%26#039;m wondering what%26#039;s the price range for an e-commerce web-design service and web hosting. Any recommendation or advices to look out for when choosing a designer?

If you go with 1and1 Internet, you can get there eShop service anywhere from $9.99 to $49.99 a month. As far as graphics and an identity is concerned. Most mainstream projects cost anywhere from $100-$1000 for design. You can always buy a pre-made template for a lot cheaper (under $300)

The range of possible prices is vast. You can probably get started on a service that specializes in bare-bones small business ecommerce (like Yahoo! Stores or Microsoft Small Business) for under $1,000, including the first year of hosting.



On the other hand, if you represent a major corporation launching a new, full-featured, unique ecommerce site, your budget would probably be in the $20 million - $30 million neighborhood. And you would expect to pay about a million a year in hosting fees, which would get you mirrored, clustered, load-balanced sites in several secure data centers around the world.



Or you can spend just about anything in between those extremes. It all depends on what you%26#039;re willing to pay for uniqueness, security, robustness, special features, and so forth.



Look for someone with experience. Above all, look for someone who asks you lots and lots of questions about what you%26#039;re looking for before they quote any prices. Lots of questions. At least a two-hour interview.



The number one reason that design and programming projects fail is lack of detailed communication.



Good luck!
