bc, I think you're as close as anyone.
It depends on what you want or expect out of a site.

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.... :)

He used Microsoft Front Page express. Front Page and FP Express are really easy to use. There is a slight learning curve in the middle but once you get into it, it is no harder than creating a word document with graphics. There are a ton of templates out there that pave the way for you. If you are interested in Front Page I can get you some more info, let me know.

Reel I set it up a long time ago. Its in need of a major revamp but I haven't taken the time to do it. Csvenser is right I used Front Page Express. I know other people who have bought a template for $50 where you just plug in your pictures and text via a simplified interface. The ones I've seen turned out pretty good.
