Small business websites in Milligan: the local business mix

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

• 8 insurance agencies: auto, home and business coverage on separate pages with a contact form for quotes.
• 6 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors: emergency availability in plain words, the towns you cover and license information.
• 5 auto repair shops: a page per service (brakes, A/C, diagnostics), the shop’s location and a quick contact form.

Fillmore County as a whole had 206 employer establishments in 2023 and another 534 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Fillmore County leans toward nondurable goods wholesalers (16 establishments, about five times the national share). In that business, restaurants, shops and institutions order by catalog, and the website should show the catalog, delivery routes and how to become a customer. Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.
