What Lane business owners ask us
Can my website list the towns around Lane that I serve?
Yes. Tell us by email which towns you cover, Wessington Springs and Woonsocket included, and they go on the website’s service area page.
Lane is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Jerauld County counts 169 nonemployer businesses and 71 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Lane is the point of the website.
Can I sell online from Lane?
Yes, for the same $89 a month: catalog, cart and online payment. Remember that sales tax applies; South Dakota’s state rate is 4.2%, and local taxes may apply.
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.
