How much does a website cost in Canada?
For a simple business website you build yourself with a website builder, plan on roughly CA$100 to CA$500 in the first year in Canada, before taxes. The plan is the biggest part, then the domain, then email at your own domain, which many builders sell separately. Having a designer build it costs more and is usually quoted per project.
