• Home health care agencies, 12 in the count. What works online: the services and areas you cover, how families start care and a contact form that reaches the office.
• Child care centers, 6 in the count. What works online: programs by age, daily routine, your hours and a form for families who want to visit.
• Used car dealers, 4 in the count. What works online: your inventory photos, financing information you are allowed to share and a contact form.

In St. Louis County, the Census counted 29,717 businesses with employees and 88,357 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. St. Louis County has 2.2 times the national share of social assistance and child care providers: 1,554 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, families look for programs and eligibility, so the website should show programs, eligibility, hours and how to apply or enroll. Insurance agencies are also overrepresented (953, 1.6 times the national share). Each of these businesses competes for the same search: someone in Wellston typing what they need and picking from the results that look trustworthy.
