Questions from Big Springs business owners
With 397 people in Big Springs, is a website worth the money?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Deuel County counts 164 nonemployer businesses and 54 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Big Springs is the point of the website.
Can I show customers in Ovid that I cover their area?
Yes. A service area page can name each town you cover, such as Ovid, Lewellen and Ogallala.
Can my website say that the business is veteran-owned?
Yes. Send the text by email; the About page and the homepage are natural places for it.
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.
