How much should i pay for a .com domain name and hosting for a year. I was looking at the for sale section in this forum and i seen people selling websites for $20 or less, how is this possible... (how much would they have paid for the domain name and hosting... i'm completely lost)
a domain will cost like 7 or 8 usd with a coupon. try to use the search button and look for www.godaddy.com or www.namecheap.com the hosting part: there is free hosting and paid hosting. remember you get what you pay for.
7 to 9 dollars .com Hosting depends.. on your needs (space and bandwidth and quality). If you are starting now and you develop not a huge website probably 1-2 dollars per month should be ok. If you want more info pm i can help you more. probably they are selling crap websites or they are desperate to get rid of them.
A domain costs between $7-$10 to register a .com, hosting can be free from a free web host, or between $4 to $10 per month for a paid hosting account.
You can get an info for less than $2 /year , hosting costs less than $ 1 a year for bulk purchases , so if you sell for $20 , you still make money
Shared hosting from a good webhost will cost you from $4 - $15 depending on the features the host provide and a .com domain will cost you $7 - $15 depending on the registrar.
