Lowrys web design FAQ
Can the website mention McConnells, Chester and the other towns I cover?
Yes. Send the list of towns you serve by email (McConnells, Chester, Sharon or any others) and the website gets a service area page with all of them.
With 188 people in Lowrys, is a website worth the money?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Chester County counts 1,948 nonemployer businesses and 560 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Lowrys is the point of the website.
Can the website be an online store?
Yes. The plan can be an online store with a catalog, shopping cart and online payment, for the same $89 a month. Collecting sales tax is your responsibility: South Carolina’s state rate is 6%, and local taxes may apply.
Do I need to buy a domain first?
If you have one, we use it. If you don’t, the domain is part of the plan: we register it and take care of the renewal.
Is there a setup fee?
No. No setup fee: you only pay the $89 monthly fee, after you approve your website. There is no lock-in contract either: you can end the service whenever you need.
