St. Clair’s small businesses and what their websites need

Blue Earth County has, among its employer businesses:

• Landscaping companies (35): maintenance and design services on separate pages, plus a quote form.
• Insurance agencies (54): the lines of insurance you write, the carriers you represent and a quote form.
• Chiropractic offices (17): what a first visit looks like, your hours, the insurance you accept and a way to request an appointment.
• Full-service restaurants (58): a menu page you can update by email, your hours and a map, plus a contact form for events and large groups.

Blue Earth County as a whole had 1,992 employer establishments in 2023 and another 4,476 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Blue Earth County leans toward nursing and residential care facilities (130 establishments, about six times the national share). For them, families research care for a relative, and the website should show levels of care, photos of the facility, licensing information and how to arrange a visit. Every one of them is a search away from a customer in St. Clair.
