Is the page going to be blog-styled or forum-styled? If it's just a regular old informational site with no interactivity, how many pages? Do you want it to be dynamic (lots of info, pulled from databases, etc.)? Lots of little extras or basic pages?
All those factors determine the price.

If I was building a site just like DF, I would charge someone probably around $2,000 bucks. Now, I have no idea how much bandwith DF uses each month, so I couldn't begin to speculate as to how much Garg pays for hosting.

I'm building Crypt's company website right now, and it's fairly basic, but he's looking at going dynamic later on.

For 6 pages, very little scripting, images, etc., I'm charging them about $350-$400.

But he's also hosting his own pages, and I think he's wanting to do all the maintenance and upkeep himself. Which is why it's so cheap.
