Joel,
As suspected, after a conversation with a cole we figurwe the minimum cost is going to be $10 - $15K. There are SO many variables that it really is a ballpark guess.
Things to consider which will influence cost:
- Will you buy your own equipment & and have someone else host? (Co-location)
- Will you purchase ALL services? Equipment, comm line, admin cost, backup etc
- Will you host at home or business. With more traffic than here you're talking a least T1 ...do you want redundancy? How far are you from the phone co drop/switch..that will influence cost. Com equipment cost.
- Video will cost you big, even on a small scale. Between extra traffic, processor load and disc space.
- Set-up for Ecommerce: Software, intergration, building custom catalog/graphic art/programmer, Banking/CC startup fees etc
I think you get the picture.
Let us know how things work out...on a high level of course.
