With a WordPress site, you own the hosting and most of the content you just use their CMS (Content management system).This allows you to be a bit more flexible with the places you host and how exactly you market you site, unlike the sites like Wix or SquareSpace.WordPress also makes it extremely easy to manage any leads, integrate new plug ins and really add valuable features to your site.Here is an example of breakdown costs:Wordpress Theme: $5-$50 (One time)Hosting from HostGator: $5-10/moDomain name - Namecheap: $14/yrCustom email address - Google Apps; $5/mo.MailChimp - to collect the emails and allow you to send out emails to a mass audience: $10/mo. or FREEYou of course don't have to do everything here, but it's a good example of the costs.
