The Cherokee business count, sector by sector
Crawford County has, among its employer businesses:
- Full-service restaurants (36): a menu page you can update by email, your hours and a map, plus a contact form for events and large groups.
- Physician practices (26): the doctors, the specialties, the insurance you accept and a contact form for new patients.
- Auto repair shops (12): a page per service (brakes, A/C, diagnostics), the shop’s location and a quick contact form.
- Funeral homes (5): your services explained with care, contact information and directions.
- Site preparation contractors (8): the equipment you run, the kinds of jobs you take and a contact form for builders and owners.
- Law offices (15): plain-language pages about the cases you take, office location and a confidential contact form.
Across Crawford County, County Business Patterns counted 901 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 2,296 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners. Crawford County has 2.6 times the national share of nursing and residential care facilities: 26 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, families research care for a relative, so the website should show levels of care, photos of the facility, licensing information and how to arrange a visit. Each of these businesses competes for the same search: someone in Cherokee typing what they need and picking from the results that look trustworthy.
Cherokee, 2020 to 2025
The population has barely moved since 2020: 592 then, 599 in 2025. For Kansas, the five-year change was +1.3%. When the population is steady, businesses grow by taking customers from competitors, and the website is often where that choice happens.

Reading the Cherokee customer
Homeownership is high in Cherokee: 76.1% of households own, against 67.2% in Kansas. That is a large market for home services that can be found online.
Cherokee is one of 10 municipalities in Crawford County, a county of 39,008 people. Census estimates for a city this size carry a wide margin of error, so the county is the better guide: the median household income is $52,844 and the median age is 33.6. 88.5% of households have broadband and 14.1% rely on a cellphone data plan alone. 60.8% of households own their home.

What Kansas asks of a business with a website
A few rules apply to any Cherokee business that sells or advertises online:
- A contact form collects personal information, and Kansas has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. K.S.A. 50-7a02 (Security breach; requirements)
- Kansas levies a state sales tax of 6.5% on retail sales of tangible personal property and taxable services, and cities and counties add local sales taxes on top of it. Kansas Department of Revenue
This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your city hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
Questions we hear about websites in Cherokee
I work in Cherokee and nearby towns. Can the website say that?
Yes. List Weir, Roseland, Pittsburg or any other place you work on a service area page, and every page keeps the contact form.
Is a website worth it for a business in a city of 599 people?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Crawford County counts 2,296 nonemployer businesses and 901 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Cherokee is the point of the website.
I already have a domain. Can I keep it?
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.
How long until my website is ready?

Is there a setup fee?
