Small business websites in Soldier: the local business mix

Some of the business types in Jackson County, from the 2023 County Business Patterns:

  • 6 site preparation contractors: the equipment you run, the kinds of jobs you take and a contact form for builders and owners.
  • 7 insurance agencies: the lines of insurance you write, the carriers you represent and a quote form.
  • 6 full-service restaurants: the current menu with prices, hours, the address with a map and photos of real dishes.

In Jackson County, the Census counted 260 businesses with employees and 884 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Jackson County leans toward religious, civic and membership organizations (19 establishments, twice the national share). In that business, members and newcomers look for schedules and contacts, and the website should show meeting times, programs, location and how to get involved.

Website design Soldier: start with the customer

Soldier is one of 9 municipalities in Jackson County, a county of 13,438 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 $75,215, and half the residents are older than 41.2. 86.4% of households have broadband and 11.5% rely on a cellphone data plan alone. 77.1% of households own their home.

Running a website from Soldier: the Kansas rules

These are some of the Kansas and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

  • Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
  • 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

Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.

Questions from Soldier business owners

Can I tell customers in Wetmore that I serve their town?

Yes. Send the list of towns you serve by email (Circleville, Wetmore, Havensville or any others) and the website gets a service area page with all of them.

With 101 people in Soldier, is a website worth the money?

Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Jackson County counts 884 nonemployer businesses and 260 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Soldier is the point of the website.

Can I sell online from Soldier?

Yes. An online store with catalog, cart and online payment costs the same $89 a month as a regular website; sales tax is yours to collect (Kansas’ state rate is 6.5%, and local taxes may apply).

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.
