How much does it cost to open an online store?

How much money do you need to open an online store? To answer this question, you need to consider in detail all the steps that make up the process of organizing a new online store. Each of these steps involves certain costs and expenses.

Step-by-step instructions for opening an online store

How to open an online store and avoid failure in reality early stage, even before the start? Let's sort it out in order.

Step 1. Determine your niche (what you want to sell)

Before creating your online store, formulate the tasks that you will set for yourself. First of all, it will depend on what types of products you will sell.

Relate the cost of production to your capital. If you have little capital, don't plan to open an online store that sells expensive electronics, jewelry, and other high-value items.

Pay attention to the demand for the selected type of product. Conduct your own market research or contact a marketing specialist. Find out how your chosen niche has been developed by other sellers - both on the Internet and outside the global network.

Step 2: Find suppliers

Start looking for suppliers early. We have already written about this in detail. By the time you start completing all the necessary paperwork, you will need to know exactly which suppliers you can work with. It’s even better if you already have personal contact with the manufacturer or distributor of the product.

It will be very unpleasant if by the time the online store opens it turns out that you have not established contacts with suppliers or the partnership agreement has broken down. Try to discuss all the terms of your cooperation in advance.

Step 3. Register an LLC or individual entrepreneur

Individual entrepreneur

On average, the cost of opening a bank account is about 500 rubles. You can find out in detail from different banks about what the cost of opening an account is and how much its maintenance will cost per month (sometimes it can be free).

Step 4. If necessary, rent an office and warehouse

Warehouse rent

You can judge whether you need a warehouse based on whether you work with Russian or foreign suppliers, as well as whether you are willing to spend money on it. It is quite possible that at the initial stage you will not need your own warehouse at all, but if you decide to rent it, then take into account and estimate the costs in advance.

From the Internet and other sources you can find out how much it costs to rent a warehouse space. required sizes In your city. Don’t rush to call the number listed in the cheapest ad. Pay attention to the location of the warehouse, technical conditions and access, as well as, of course, the area.

Having calculated your possible costs, compare them with the costs of courier or postal delivery. It is quite possible that delivering goods by mail or courier will be much easier and more profitable for you. At the same time, you will not have to constantly monitor the warehouse and pay for its rent, even in cases when it will not pay for itself.

Office rental

IN modern business the office has ceased to be primarily an element of prestige. Today, it must first of all be functional and perform specific tasks. This is especially true at the initial stage of the existence of an online store. Only rent an office if you really need it. If you decide to open an online store from scratch, you can plan to rent an office, but not from the very beginning.

Many start-up companies use an office to demonstrate their prestige, but renting a space costing 5-10 thousand rubles per month can be very expensive for you. Please also note that having an office will mean maintaining at least one or two employees. Consequently, an amount of 10–20 thousand rubles will be added to monthly expenses, and all documentation for your employees will be added to the document flow.

For key meetings with partners, you can initially use conference rooms, cafes and other neutral areas. It is quite possible that in the future it will be optimal for you to rent your own office, but, as practice shows, at the initial stage it is more likely to hinder than contribute to the successful development of an online store.

Step 5: Create a website

Logo and corporate identity development

Website creation is key point– after all, an online store simply cannot work without it. Therefore, you can start developing a website in parallel with completing all the necessary documents. Most likely, you will need to contact a professional designer to develop a logo and corporate identity for the site, on the basis of which the sketch will be created. This is very important, because even before the first texts appear on the site, you should already assess the attractiveness of your online store for future customers.

The importance of a logo should not be underestimated. In the future, it will serve you for branding your online store. So find a professional designer who can design a logo and style for you. The easiest way to find such a specialist is through freelance sites. For example: free-lance.ru, freelansim.ru. Payment will be piecework, but you can expect an average of 3 to 10 thousand rubles for a logo and 10-30 thousand rubles for a website design. Please note that the professionalism of the designer and the cost of his services are completely unrelated to each other and always pay attention to the portfolio.

Corporate identity can be used not only for website design, but also for the release of various paraphernalia and gifts that will accompany the activities of your online store. Of course, you can find a solution yourself or use a service of ready-made templates, but it is unlikely that your brand will be original.

Buying hosting, domain and engine

Hosting is a service that allows you to store your database and all website materials on a remote server. A domain is a unique address, which will be the address of your online store on the global network. Very often, a domain and hosting are provided as a single package of services, and the annual cost of your own website starts at about 600 rubles per month. You can also find a cheaper option. For example, domain registration costs only 150 rubles per year.

An engine is a set of program codes with which your online store will work. You don’t have to understand them at all - the engines are supplied ready-made. Free engines provide a minimum of functions. If you want to provide a convenient service for your clients, select the optimal set of available features at the appropriate price. There are many catalogs of online store engines on the Internet, where you can choose the right one for yourself.

Another option is to abandon the engine and use an online service for creating online stores. This is much simpler and clearer; you will not need to understand any technical intricacies, but you will need to pay the service a monthly fee (from 700 rubles depending on the tariff). An example of such a service is InSales.

Thus, even before filling the site, you will have to spend, even with minimal expenses, from 10 to 60 thousand rubles. In fact, this is not such a large amount, and competent trading allows you to recoup it in one or two months. But do not forget about the costs of filling and promoting the site, especially at the initial stage.

Alternative option

It is worth noting that you can also contact any web studio and order the creation of a turnkey online store, but the budget in this case can increase several times.

Step 6. Fill the site

Lyrics

Objectively evaluate your time and your ability to compile all texts for the site, from the greeting to detailed product descriptions. Most likely, you will need to constantly write different descriptions for unique or one-of-a-kind items. Important point: We strongly do not recommend copying texts from other sites. This may result in sanctions from search engines, which will significantly reduce the number of visitors to your site (potential buyers). It is best to turn to specialists for writing texts, because it is not at all expensive. You can work with them either on a permanent or temporary basis.

The average cost of a thousand characters starts from 20–30 rubles, and one thousand characters is more than enough to describe a product. The easiest way to order texts for an online store is from TurboText.

In most cases, writing texts is not a very expensive expense, but do not lose sight of them - after all, high-quality, competent and informative texts are no less important than good design.

Photos

You can photograph products directly in the warehouse or in a separate studio. Studio photography gives best quality images, but more expensive. In addition, not all types of products can be easily and safely transported from place to place.

Additionally, your best bet is to hire a photographer to take more advanced, professional product photography. It is best to enter into a partnership agreement, since you will need the services of a photographer in the future as the range expands and new products become available.

The cost of shooting in a studio will cost you approximately 150–200 rubles (for each item of goods). Take this into account and do not order studio photography for goods whose cost is too low so as not to reduce your profit to zero.

However, at the initial stages it is wiser not to resort to the services of photographers, but to ask the supplier for a product catalog, from where to take photographs for the website.

Step 7. Promote your online store

No one will know about even the best and highest quality online store without online promotion. Therefore, in your list showing how much it costs to open an online store, be sure to include the costs of its advertising and promotion. This topic is very broad and we will definitely publish several articles about promoting online stores, but for now we will try to tell you about everything in a nutshell.

You can use several methods for promotion. The first (and almost mandatory for any website) is SEO optimization, that is, optimizing texts for search queries, creating a list of keywords and headings. All this is necessary for your store’s website to successfully gain popularity on the Internet. SEO optimization today is carried out by both freelancers and people who prefer a permanent form of cooperation. It’s best if they are in constant contact with the site’s programmers.

Use contextual and banner advertising, click ads and other forms of online advertising to promote your online store on various platforms. Don't underestimate the possibilities social networks. Install widgets on your website and take care of creating public pages for your online store in the main social networks (VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, Facebook, and so on). At minimum costs you will be able to tell a significant part of it quite quickly target audience about the opening of a new store.

If your financial capabilities allow you, also use print and outdoor advertising. So, when renting an office, equip it with high-quality outdoor advertising, order business cards and advertising brochures. You can also use advertising in the media (television, magazines, newspapers, as well as audio and video advertising).

You can calculate the cost of advertising based on the required number of ads and other units of advertising products, as well as the cost of each unit in the corresponding advertising agency or online catalogue. Be sure to track the effectiveness of advertising, that is, the increase in the number of visitors (and more importantly) active buyers. Within one to two weeks, you will be able to understand how effective each type of advertising is in order to optimize your spending on it.

Good day, dear readers!

Very important information?

I am very concerned about the number of long-term construction projects in which people will never live again.

It is upsetting how much money and effort people spent on building their nest and still did not feel the joy of life in their home.

– There is no fence around the house, and its price is also decent.

– Landscaping of the site also needs to be taken into account.

Before you start building a house, I highly recommend spending 10 minutes and reading the article “ “.

Conclusion:

I hope I answered your question how much does it cost to build a brick house fully.

This house costs 149 656 $ can be built cheaper. If you want to it’s easy to save more than 30% on the construction of your home, without sacrificing quality, .

Another recommendation when you are building a house is not to spray on everything at once: a steep fence first, or outbuildings, or the most expensive finishing materials. Concentrate your efforts on the main thing, namely the house, and then everything else.

Consider the cost of the home first.

I wish everyone to build their own good, cozy home and live happily in it!

Your new website is like a car, at first you like it, then you start looking for shortcomings, and after a couple of months you start thinking about tuning. Indeed, creating a fully thought-out website is very difficult task, because what one person likes will not always be liked by his friend. Today we’ll talk about how much your website costs.

How much does it cost to create your own website?

The price for creating a website depends on the complexity of the site, as well as on the contractor. If you decide to make a website yourself, then the price of the website is your time spent, but if you decide to resort to the help of specialists, then there are prices for every taste and pocket. You can find out how much the site costs in more detail by writing to us at, and it is advisable to provide a link to the landmark.

For me, the price for creating a business card website from scratch starts at $140, excluding hosting and domain. You can see prices in more detail here. The price varies depending on what you need: business card website, catalog, store, blog, corporate website, etc.

After you or you have made a website, you need to place it on hosting (space for the website), and also purchase a domain (site name).

Prices for hosting are very different - from free to very expensive. My advice is not to go for cheap or free hosting, it is better to purchase high-quality hosting at an adequate price. I trust professionals - my hosting provider is BeGet.ru. The price for the cheapest hosting is from $29 per year or from $3 for 1 month.

The price for a domain varies depending on the domain zone, for example for com and net it ranges from $9-13.

In cases where sections of the site are not filled in independently, you will need to pay for this expense item.

This is where the costs of creating a website end.

How much does it cost to maintain your website?

The items on the costs of maintaining the site are quite extensive:

• hosting fee (about $29 per year)
• domain payment (about $10 per year)
• payment for services to the site administrator (if such a service is needed)
• payment for website promotion services (price depends on complexity and number of words)
• payment for website content services (if the service is needed)
• payment for advertising in search engines, banner advertising (if the service is needed)
• link building by purchasing links (if such a service is needed)

To answer the question “how much does it cost to maintain a website,” you need to clearly understand that prices for advertising and other services greatly depend on the subject of the site and the presence of its competitors. If this is a business card website for an enterprise that produces rocket engines, then $5-10 per month will be enough for advertising, but if this is a business card website for a website creation enterprise, then $100 a month is not enough :)

How much does it cost to get a foreign passport: what does it depend on and is it possible not to pay?

a) 4 factors on which the “issue price” depends

How much you will have to pay to get a passport depends on several parameters.

Type of passport.

The old-style international passport does not contain an electronic chip, so it costs less.

But its significant drawback is that receiving new document and you will have to go through all the circles of bureaucratic hell every 5 years.

On the other hand: if you don’t plan to “light up” the entire next ten years in trip around the world, and now extreme necessity calls you on a long journey - why pay more?

A new type of international passport (biometric) is issued with an electronic medium and is issued for as long as 10 years.

Regardless of whether you signed up to apply via the Internet or bravely stood your ground in line, this does not in any way affect how much your international passport will cost you - the amount of the state fee does not change.
