Your probably better playing it one step at a time. It wont cost you a fortune. A few hundred at the outset maybe. If I can make a meager sum of money doing manual labor and make things work so can anyone with the right initiative and dedication. Depends how much you are willing to put into your work really. The program is topnotch as I have it. If your serious about creating your own site you will be spooning out money periodically, but if you know what to do in advance which the programs teach you, you'll have a better edge to take the bull by the horns. Good Luck in your efforts
Bottomline: it is definitely affordable.
