    You can check the prices yourself at Host Gator's website. As for the cost of setting up the site, if you do it yourself, it's completely free. If you hire someone else to do the job for you, depending on the specifics of what you want, it could cost you anywhere between $5 and $5,000.

    It depends on what you plan on doing. your hosting cost will cost you monthly, average about 5 bucks.

    If you install & configure your own Wordpress site, make sure you secure it or pay someone to secure it for you. In most cases, your only cost will be for hosting unless you start adding additional services.

      What does you mean by "secure it or pay someone to secure it". What does it mean & how you do it.

        Wordpress needs to be secured. I assume my last post got deleted since I was offering a service to you.

        If you don't secure Wordpress with a variety of plugins and changes at the code level, it's more likely to be hacked. You can find all the information you need online to get the problem dealt with, however it can be somewhat technical. Thus, you may want to consider hiring someone unless you are comfortable with the DIY approach.

    Not very much.

    HostGator Baby Plan approx. $7/month

    Domain Name: $10/yr


    So, pretty much $100 a year.

    I'd set aside another $100-200 for advertising/seo services, but it's not necessary. It all depends on what kind of site you're hosting.
