Questions from Newberry business owners
Is a website worth it for a business in a village of 1,397 people?
Your market is bigger than the village: Luce County has 309 nonemployer businesses and 158 with employees (2023), and customers search across the whole area. A website is how people outside Newberry find you.
Can customers buy from my website?
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: Michigan’s state rate is 6%.
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.
