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

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
If you want a simple website, it will cost you almost nothing. Except you want to have your domain and hosting. I have a simple wordpress blog which cost bothing to open. I need to buy domain and hosting which will cost around $50 for 6 months.
For me l am on my way to the creating of a simple writing website. I really need a platform to showcase my writing work for sure.
Technically you could do it for free, and pay for a domain name. Free hosts aren't as reliable as paid hosts, you might experience downtime/slow servers free you go the free route.
