Who you compete with in Anniston

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

• Insurance agencies (7): the lines you write (auto, home, business, life), the carriers you work with and a quote request form.
• Quick-service restaurants (8): today’s hours, the menu and photos that look like what customers get.

In Mississippi County, the Census counted 214 businesses with employees and 633 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Mississippi County has 3.7 times the national share of trucking companies: 16 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, shippers and brokers vet carriers, so the website should show lanes and regions, equipment, authority and insurance details and a quote form. The county also has a strong cluster of religious, civic and membership organizations (15 establishments, 1.9 times the national share). Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.
