payment is around $180.00 Australian dollars. A global or American .com costs
around $30.00 Australian a year.
DNS
Costs
The next cost is a Domain Name Serving (DNS)
this costs around $50.00 Australian per year. What this does is tell the world
exactly where your website is. Hosting
Costs
Hosting
is the next charge and depending on whom you go through and what plan the costs
can vary greatly from $15.00 Australian to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Though
you would have to be a major site to pay those kinds of fee's. If you want to
have a position in the local Australian Search Engines you will need to either
have a .com.au or be hosted
in Australia on an Australian IP Range. Shopping

The actual shopping carts can cost from $0.00 to $15000 the difference being ease of use,
running and installing the shop and adding new products. Most shopping carts are not very search engine friendly so a lot of work needs to be done to secure high rankings. |
