Designing a website around Perry’s customers
Roots run deep here, with 84.8% of residents born in Kansas. A rooted community still looks businesses up before calling, if only to find the hours.
Perry is one of 8 municipalities in Jefferson County, a county of 18,296 people. Census estimates for a city this size carry a wide margin of error, so the county is the better guide: households have a median income of $81,278, and half the residents are older than 44.2. Broadband reaches 89.2% of homes, and 15.7% of households are online only through a phone plan. Homeowners are 85.7% of households.
Small business websites in Perry: the local business mix
The Census counted 47 establishments with employees in 2023 in ZIP code 66073, which includes Perry and its surroundings. A sample of that count, and what each kind of business needs online:
- Remodeling contractors, 3 in the count. What works online: a gallery of past remodels, a clear list of what you do and don’t take on, and a form that sends estimate requests to your inbox.
- Full-service restaurants, 3 in the count. What works online: a menu page you can update by email, your hours and a map, plus a contact form for events and large groups.
In Jefferson County, the Census counted 316 businesses with employees and 1,298 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. By number of employer establishments, construction leads in Jefferson County (20.3%), followed by retail trade (15.2%) and other services (repair, personal care, organizations) (12.0%). Among Perry residents who work, the largest fields are manufacturing (10.3%) and public administration (7.7%). None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.

How Aria builds a Perry website
Aria is based in Curitiba, Brazil, and has built websites for businesses since 2008. There is no Aria office in Perry, and you don’t need one: sign-up, material and approval all happen online.
- Start with the online sign-up, which takes about 5 minutes.
- Within 5 business days the website is ready on a temporary link, and you review it and ask for changes.
- Only after you approve do you pay the first monthly fee; then the site is published on your domain.
Changes after launch go by email and are included, and so do quick questions.
- Business website or online store, same price
- Your domain, registered and renewed by us (or the one you already have)
- Business email on your domain: 5 GB, webmail and spam filtering
- Hosting, SSL certificate and daily backups
- Changes to text, photos and prices, requested by email
- Ready within 5 business days on a temporary link
Paperwork and rules for Kansas businesses online
Some homework before launch:
- 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; check with the Kansas agencies, Jefferson County, the city of Perry or an attorney.
