The cost to you as a website design business is all good news. It usually has very low cost after the fist initial set up of hosting account as once this is paid for you will only be using your time.

Make sure you get a good briefing from your client so you can engage in what costs are needed to be covered for example in your time and the level of work needed.

If you are already in creative design you won't need to think about extra cost such as client logos, images etc as you will have access to these already. If not you may want to think about these costs - this is also the perfect opportunity, if you are already in graphic design to offer your clients stationery to compliment the new website such a s flyers, business cards, etc. Maybe even offer a package to your clients.

Initial cost to build a website could be as little as -

• Purchasing a domain name from £0.99 (This would be included in clients fees so no cost to you)
• Adding to your hosting plan - Once you have account set up you have unlimited domains and your plan can be from just £15 per month
• Building clients websites on Wordpress won't cost you a penny.

You can make yourself a very profitable business and charge clients anything from £399 for a portfolio 2-3 page website and anything up to £4999 for an e-commerce website.
