How a website for $89 a month works

The team behind this page works from Curitiba, Brazil, and has built websites for businesses since 2008. There is no Aria office in Myrtle, and you don’t need one: sign-up, material and approval all happen online.

  1. The sign-up at cadastro.ariaserv.com/en takes about 5 minutes; your logo and photos go by email.
  2. Your website is ready within 5 business days on a temporary link, so you can check every page before anything is published.
  3. Ask for adjustments by email, approve, and after the first monthly fee the site goes live on your domain.

Changes after launch go by email and are included, and so do quick questions.

Questions from Myrtle business owners

Do you have an office in Myrtle?

No. Aria is based in Curitiba, Brazil, and works with every client online: material, change requests and questions go by email, and you review the website on a temporary link before it goes live.

My business is in Myrtle, but I also work in Hayward. Can the website show that?

Yes. A service area page can name each town you cover, such as Hayward, Glenville and Northwood.

Does a small business in Myrtle need a website?

Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Freeborn County counts 1,935 nonemployer businesses and 755 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Myrtle is the point of the website.

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.
