Common questions about a website in Mentor
I work in Mentor and nearby towns. Can the website say that?
Yes. Send the list of towns you serve by email (Moscow, Felicity, New Richmond or any others) and the website gets a service area page with all of them.
With 230 people in Mentor, is a website worth the money?
Your market is bigger than the city: Campbell County has 6,215 nonemployer businesses and 1,743 with employees (2023), and customers search across the whole area. A website is how people outside Mentor find you.
Can customers buy from my website?
Yes. An online store with catalog, cart and online payment costs the same $89 a month as a regular website; sales tax is yours to collect (Kentucky’s state rate is 6%).
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.
