There are two fees you need to take into account.
The domain name fee, which is basically buying your name (www.wellcraftv20.com) and the hosting/storage fee. The domain name fee is pretty damn cheap, a couple a bucks a month or a set fee per year. The hosting fee varies on the amount of storage space you need, which is drastically dependent on what you are hosting (pics or text). This also includes your bandwidth, which is the amount of traffic you will have. ie...you have a 100 megabyte webpage and the entire webpage is viewed 10 times a month you need atleast 1000 megabytes (1 Gigabyte) of bandwidth. Check out godaddy.com for rates on various plans. Also like parish said some ISP's supply you with a hosting service and domain, although the domain will be long (myhome.comcast.net/csvencer...etc). You could use the free hosting space and buy a domain that redirects, as in svencer.com redirects you to my comcast page so I only have to pay a couple of bucks a year for the domain name and not the hosting but I still get the benefit of a simply website name. Hope this helps more than confuses, if you have any questions fire away. I ran a page for 3 years a couple of years ago so got pretty familiar with the system. -Svence

My wife built a site for our camellia society, up and running in about 2 months, less than $500. http://www.camelliaweb.org/
A similar site that we know has spent $50,000 for similar stuff. They are up and running after about a year. Their negotiations with different companies ranged from $35K to $150K. A couple of others she did, don't know what she spent. http://www.camelliashop.com/ http://thelandingsgardener.com/TLG/index.php (I don't think she is in the "want to do more" market)

That's right, for example BigShrimpin ran this site for years for less than $10 a month...the domain name alone is under $20, so unless you have a huge site with really dynamic content and thousands of hits per day it won't cost much at all. Now on the other hand look at Craigslist. They have 20 - 30 employees. One wouldn't think a site as simple as craigslist which is policed by the online community would require such a large development staff. But I can tell you they probably have a freakin buttload of servers running that site because of all of the traffic.
I've been running a crappy little site for the past 10 years. www.copperlighting.com I spent ~$50 for the name (it was more expensive back then) and ~$20 per month. Oh and I spent a whopping $20 on advertising to get listed in the search engines. I've had sales in over half of the lower 48!! And I don't even accept credit cards for cryin out loud!! Ok, there's my plug for my side business LOL. The enforcer is gonna boot me for illegal advertising now.... :)
