My cost composition of http://notemoz.com

* SEO (0%)

* PR (0%)

* Website or App development (10%)

* Hosting & Domain (10%)

* Support (0%)

* Other (0%)

Pardon my ignorance but ... what do you mean by AD?
Tom here from Scirra (http://www.scirra.com). Our cost composition is:

Adverts (50%)

SEO (0%)

PR (5%)

Website Dev (0%)

Hosting (45%)

Support (0%)

Important to note about SEO is this overlaps with our advertisements campaigns they are not always distinct from one another.

Also important to note is that imo startups shouldn't be paying for SEO

What about product and administrative ? Both are usually large enough to be their own categories, especially compared with something like PR.
Only thing that costed me was hosting and domain
