Web Estimates
Published on: (Updated on: )
Following our discussion at the meeting on Sunday (12.06.2022), below are the website estimates.
Estimates
| Product/Service | Cost Per Month (€) | Annual Cost (€) |
| VPS Web hosting | 6.98 | 83.76 |
| Domain name | Between .99 to 2 euros | 23.88 |
Notes
Web hosting
In terms of web hosting, I think the above estimate is probably the best reasonable cost for a Virtual Private Server (VPS). The web hosting package would include:
CPU
4 vCPU Cores
RAM
8 GB RAM
Storage
50 GB NVMe
or 200 GB SSD
Data Transfer
32 TB Traffic
Unlimited Incoming
Though there are other packages with a bit higher prices, for the purpose of the organization, I think this VPS package would be ideal and sufficient. It is also worth noting that there are shared hosting services which usually start from around 2 euros per month. However, I would not recommend a shared hosting service because they are not usually able to handle high traffic, among other limitations.
In addition, with the VPS package, I can also set up a mail server for the organization (eg. example@gt10charity.com) without additional expenses.
Domain
A domain name (website name) as you might know usually cost between 0.99 – 2.00 euros per month. Also, when it is paid upfront (for a year or more), one might get a discount depending on the platform that is selling the domain name.
