The price is free. Just install the LAMP stack and you have a webserver.

If you only need a basic webserver then just install apache and it will be operational.

You will need to buy a domain if you want to access the site outside the LAN. You will point the domain's A record to the Wan IP of your router. You will then need to port forward port 80/TCP on your router to the system running the Web server.
