Running a website costs more than the build price alone. Annual costs include the domain, hosting, SSL, software licences, security and backups, plus time for updates and content changes. For a small business site this can be modest, while busy ecommerce or custom platforms need larger budgets.
Skipping maintenance usually costs more in the long run. Outdated sites get hacked, slow down and break after software updates, and recovery is far more expensive than steady upkeep.
Ask your agency to separate hosting, maintenance and improvements in the quote so you can see what is essential and what is optional.
