In Oswego County, the Census counted 2,093 businesses with employees and 6,105 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Oswego County has twice the national share of vehicle dealers: 62 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, shoppers browse inventory and compare prices online, so the website should show inventory, financing information as allowed by law, service department hours and directions. Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.
