Asking “how much will it cost to create my new website” is similar to asking “how much will it cost to create my new greenhouse” – it all depends on what you want.
- Do you want a custom designed greenhouse or one from a pre-designed plan?
- Do you want an automated watering system, or will you be using a watering can?
- Do you want an all-season heated space to grow orchids, or a space to get your seeds started in the spring?
- Do you want high-end growing lights, or will mother nature be providing the light?
You get the idea – every business, every site, every budget is different.
