Allow $50 – $200 per month including GST for your package costs to cover secure hosting and support. Your hosting costs will vary depending on the amount of disk space that you need and the amount of traffic allowance that you are given every month. If you are using a hosted online shop solution, then your provider will take care of the cost of security updates and maintaining the server including the cost of the minimum quarterly security compliance scanning (PCI DSS) as required by credit card providers and banks.Make sure that your web hosting provider includes emails in their services, as not all providers may do this. You will need email addresses on your shop domain name to present a professional and complete look for your online store.
