Oakdale’s small businesses and what their websites need

Antelope County has, among its employer businesses:

• 7 auto repair shops: certifications, warranty terms in plain words and a contact form for estimates.
• 6 child care centers: the program, licensing information, the staff and a contact form for parents.
• 11 insurance agencies: the lines you write (auto, home, business, life), the carriers you work with and a quote request form.
• 6 remodeling contractors: project galleries by room, the steps of a remodel and a consultation request form.
• 5 grocery stores: hours, weekly specials and departments.

In Antelope County, the Census counted 218 businesses with employees and 670 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Antelope County has about six times the national share of nondurable goods wholesalers: 18 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, restaurants, shops and institutions order by catalog, so the website should show the catalog, delivery routes and how to become a customer. Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.
