Note: Some companies tend to design a website without offering a design fee but they charge monthly fees which are much higher than paying one time design fee. So if you are faced with that situation please do your math well.
WEB HOSTING PRICE
Let understand what is web hosting first. As discussed above that website is a collection of digital files such us text, images, and videos. These files need to be stored the same way you store your pictures and videos on your mobile phone or computer. In phone you have an internal and external memory card while in a computer you have hard disk. When it comes to website, it is stored in a server (which is similar to memory card or hard disk). So, since you do not have your own server, and it is expensive to run a server just for your website alone, it is wise to rent a small space in a server for your website. This act of renting a server is what we call “website hosting” and you will pay small fee every year for that rental space. Usually, the website hosting fee is paid annually. and it rage from TZS. 50,000/– for email hosting only to hundred thousands based on the size and other hosting features. However, our prices are much lower than these. please contact us for much cheap web hosting prices.
DOMAIN REGISTRATION PRICE
When a website is stored in a server (host), your visitors will have to access it and view the website. While there are millions of website in the world, it require to have an address for each website so that every person who need to access a certain website, will go to the internet and type the address for that website and view it. Similar to physical addresses or postal addresses, they must be unique and no one address should take a visitor to more than one address. An address for a website is called a domain name. A domain name looks like this “yourbusinessname.co.tz”, example; tanzaniawebsitedesign.com.
A domain name is paid annually and the prices varies from a depends on the ending of the domain, for example, .com domains prices start from TZS. 35,000/- while .co.tz start from TZS. 25,000/- per year.
CONCLUTION
It is important to understand that you need to cover all three cost to have your website designed and published. So for example, if web design price is TZS. 400,000/-, web hosting price is TZS. 80,000/- and domain name registration is TZS. 35,000/-, therefore, you will have total cost of TZS. 515,000/-.
