Low to Moderate Cost Web Site Hosts
| Low to moderate costs are typically around $50.00 or less for recurring costs and around $200.00 or less for non-recurring costs. Recurring costs are generally associated with the monthly rental or lease rates and non-recurring costs are associated with setup fees. Of course, there will be additional costs if you require items such as extra space, extra traffic allowances and extra services.
