Before you build: what St. Paul looks like from a business owner’s chair

Single-family detached houses are 96.2% of the housing in St. Paul, and 85.9% of households own their home. The housing stock decides which home services are in demand: repairs, heating service, roofing and yard work depend on the kind of homes people live in. If your service fits these homes, name it (propane delivery, oil furnaces, wood stoves, mobile homes, condo buildings): that is what people type.

Which St. Paul businesses need a small business website

ZIP code 97137, which covers St. Paul and the area around it, had 39 business establishments with employees in 2023. Among them:

• Landscaping companies, 3 in the count. What works online: seasonal services, photos of yards you take care of and a quick way for new customers to reach you.

County-wide, Marion County counts 9,176 businesses with employees and 20,977 self-employed or nonemployer businesses (2023). Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Marion County leans toward farm and forestry support services (82 establishments, about seven times the national share). For them, farmers book custom harvesting, spraying and equipment work by the season, and the website should show the crops, acres or animals you handle, your equipment and the counties you cover. Nursing and residential care facilities are also overrepresented (283, 2.7 times the national share). None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.

How Aria builds a St. Paul website

Based in Curitiba, Brazil, Aria has been building business websites since 2008. We don’t have an office in St. Paul: the whole process happens online, and the plan is the same $89 a month in any city.

1. Sign up online in about 5 minutes; the logo, photos and texts you already have go by email.
2. Within 5 business days the website is ready on a temporary link, and you review it and ask for changes.
3. Ask for adjustments by email, approve, and after the first monthly fee the site goes live on your domain.

Later on, you send changes by email (a new price, a new photo, a new service) and the team makes them, with no extra charge.

Running a website from St. Paul: the Oregon rules

Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.

• Under ADA Title III, a business open to the public should make its website usable by people with disabilities, according to the Justice Department’s guidance. ADA.gov guidance
• Oregon has no general sales or use/transaction tax, so there is nothing to collect on ordinary online sales. The only close relatives are the vehicle use tax and vehicle privilege tax on new vehicles. Oregon Department of Revenue
