Hi Vijay, Website needs lot of strain to develop and maintain. It will not be that much of easy as you think.
Next, ------------- Your message ---------------- >>>>> I have checked GoDaddy.com, the best know domain name service - and they are providing .org domain at $7.95 per year, which seems to me, quite affordable. <<<<<<< -------------------------------------------- I will give .org domain name for you even at $ 6.00 . It will be affordable to even a small school going kid. Don't think that having a domain name itself is a Website. There will be so many other things to be taken into consideration like Web space and it's Band width etc., Designing & maintaining and adding the features that you told are big issues. They will be definately a lot more than what you are thinking about having a - Just Website.
