    It all depend on what you want. Most services in South Africa are ripp offs. It all depend on what CMS you want to use. Stay away from any sort of anual contract. If you supply the content, and you just want a standard 5 page site, then do not pay more than R800-00. In fact do not pay more than R400-00.

    Make sure the the service don't charge you more than R50-00 to R100-00 for your hosting P/M. Make sure the service do not charge you more than R100-00 PA for you domain name.

    Make sure the service are very clear about traffic services to your sites. ( Always request advice on services like this from another source as this is one of the most unclear sections of site building services unless you do PPC)

    I would suggest you post your requirements here and then we can give you more direct advice and what/where to look for. When you put your scope on here, then don't include your industry. Just put as an example: I want a x amount of pages, I will/not supply content. I want TRAFFIC. I have x amount of products and want a shopping cart/email responder system/member section etct.

    Am I reading this correctly? No more than R400 for a full 5 page website? A yola site or similiar perhaps! Seriously do you have any idea what goes into developing a website? (content aside)

    Hi Kimh, NO I do not know what I am talking about, I am completely ignorent. Read my whole post, then answer accordingly.

    @Kevinb asked what he should pay for a website (No other info). I for sure do not want him to run into 80% of the SA services where they are going to charge him R5000-00 to R20000-00 for a 5 Page site, then add R1000-00 for his domain and to top it ask him R100-00 to R200-00 PM for hosting. I also would not want to see a person paying R1000-00 to R5000-00 for a wordpress CMS with a free template and no plug-in licenses

    When I am networking, I am shocked time and again at what people get charged, then to top it their sites do not even come close to getting any traffic.

    One example: A furniture company contacted me the other day, they have paid R25k PA total R50k for the last 2 Years for their website, where they were gaurenteed 80 clicks per Month!!!! Again a simple 5 page site with one product page (Photo Gallary) The site was not even properly indexed. Geeeez with R25k 5page site I will gaurentee at least 500-1000 monthley Targeted visitors.

    It is simple people in our Country get ripped off everywhere and believe me when those trained sales people sit in front of their target, they can sell sunshine to you.

    Another example: One person was ready to buy pages from xxxx top provider the other day at R2500-00 per Month. I contacted them on behalf of this person, they could not give me any keywords they are going to target for this persons business niche nor could they gaurentee organic traffic from google... Ripp off galore.
