Free Blogs and Websites Are Feasible
The out of pocket costs of creating and hosting a Website can be $0. But costs for professional looking sites range from $50 to $150/year. Some of the key players for free online Web development are Google Blogger, Weebly, Wix and WordPress among the many providers. However, users have to be careful, all of the "free" services have extra charges for tasks like adding a Domain Name, install SSL or adding specialized apps/plugins. As well there are time and out of pocket costs associated with learning and posting to your own Website. Factor those in!
