Guys/gals,
need to create a website which will have pictures/discussion on topics/puzzle solving/ polls etc.... getting bored of daily shift job...Wanted to try out something new... I have very limited knowledge of website building .. so kindly tell me the procedure from scratch...and what will be the maintainence charges for the website?? i will be beneficial if the website is build by some professional... kindly tell the names of company who are in this job of creating websites and maintiang them...
 
IF you wish to learn then you can start using a CMS like wordpress, joomla, Drupal (my personal favorite) . The vast community around all these will be very helpful to you in learning stuff.

Otherwise you can hire feelancers off websites like Elance, Odesk etc.
 
What is the initial cost of setting up a website from scratch??? what will be the annual maintainence cost of maintaing the website.... KIndly give an approximation amount (Rs). I am hoping to get another friend of mine to join me. As we both are busy with job/family.. we will not be able to contribute much in developing the website .. We want someone to develope and may be maintain it
 
It depends a lot on the website and the complexity and also on the experience of the developer and the platform being used.

A standard .com domain would cost you around Rs. 500 / year.
Hosting would again depend on the number of visitors and how resource intensive the website is.
Typically you can start with hosting for as low as 300 / month for a decent hosting.

@swatkats might also be of help in guiding you about hosting and stuff.
 
I just renewed a .com domain, i got charged 599.I use bigrock and mitsu is 50bucks cheaper they're not ICANN accredited but still reliable.
To Give you some idea about how much it would cost to Set up a website depends on What kind of website is.. Which platform.. How can you spend..

There are lot of Good providers in India within your hosting budget of $4-6/mo viz. Hostdime India, Leapswitch.
Hawkhost, Site5 and Stablehost are other Recommended Overseas hosts. Stay away from Bigrock and Godaddy hosting!

PS: Looks like Bigrock is now Registered in the overseas and they're not charging service Tax.

If you want I can do it for you. Just leave me PM in detail about it

You can try digitalocean, which is too good(pay as you go). Even leapswitch is recommend if you want to host in India itself. The cost will be around $80 max per year including domain registration
