How much does it cost to set up a simple writing website?

I have a friend of mine that needs to be a writer and they are required to have a writer's website for managing their writing samples among other posts. How much should they are supposed to budget for that?

It actually depends on the person who is going to do the service and the level of quality of the website required, as for me, I'm a developer, and the lowest price can be 200 dollars, depending on the features the price might rise to 5000 dollars

When I set up my own website, I spent nearly $100, and that was a long time ago. I’m sure prices have gone up since then, so you might need to budget over $150 to create a simple writing website.

If you have a domain and hosting, it costs zero dollars as wordpress is completely free. If you have to buy a domain and hosting, it cost around $30
