Landline Phone Service questions, answered by experts

VoIP phone services are so common and affordable that it’s unlikely you’ll need a hardwired business phone. Some people may want to avoid VoIP services for reasons of online privacy or to make sure network outages never affect their calls. Otherwise, it’s rare to use an analogy or hardwired system for your first business line.

After paying a contractor to install wires extending from the nearest phone pole, you can contact your local service provider to connect your service for a fee. Connecting to landline service costs about $20 to $270 upfront, and then you’ll spend anywhere from around $15 to $60 per month for this utility.

The average cost for a single landline in your home is around $24 per month, but some carriers offer lines for between $12 and $40 per month. If you also want access to cable TV and internet, it’s often more affordable to bundle services with a single carrier. The average cost for all three is around $80 per month, and prices for different bundles range from $50 to $150 or more, depending on what’s included.

Many VoIP solutions advertise themselves for a team or office, which can cost thousands of dollars. But if you look for small business VoIP solutions, you can find many that offer a single line fit for a home office or sole proprietorship. That can include companies like RingCentral, OpenPhone, and even Zoom—along with traditional phone service providers you may already be using.

Types of networks include wired Ethernet for stability, wireless networks for convenience, and powerline networks that use a home's electrical wiring for data transfer. Choose based on your specific internet usage needs.
