So, what are the basic corporate website construction costs?
1. Without considering the operating and marketing costs, after the website design and production is completed, only the source code and database of the website will be left, and this is all you will get by paying the website building fee.
2. The source code and database need to be stored on the Internet space, and you can only rent a server – because it is illegal to build a server by yourself without IDC qualifications. The so-called rented server here actually refers to the network line. You can buy a server yourself, but the country only issues Internet access licenses to China Unicom, China Telecom, China Mobile and other ten companies. In fact, all the servers in China are sold by these companies. According to current laws, it is against the law for agents who have registered websites not to place them in their computer rooms.
3. With a server, you also need to purchase a domain name and point it to the server address so that the website can be accessed.
