Maintaining a personal or portfolio website typically costs between Rs 1,500 to Rs 5,000 per year for a basic self-managed site. If managed by an agency or freelancer with regular maintenance support, ongoing costs range from Rs 500 to Rs 2,500 per month (Rs 6,000 to Rs 30,000 per year).
ANNUAL BREAKDOWN OF RECURRING COSTS
Domain Name Renewal: Rs 800 to Rs 1,500 per year for a standard .com, .in, or .me domain.
Web Hosting: Rs 1,000 to Rs 3,500 per year for basic shared hosting (Hostinger, Bluehost), or Rs 0 if hosted on free developer platforms like GitHub Pages, Vercel, or Netlify.
SSL Certificate: Rs 0 in most cases, since most hosting providers and platforms include a free Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate.
Platform Subscriptions (Optional): Rs 2,000 to Rs 10,000 per year if built using no-code website builders like Wix, Squarespace, or Webflow.
Maintenance and Support (Optional): Rs 500 to Rs 2,500 per month if you outsource plugin updates, backups, and layout changes to a freelancer or agency.
