Questions from Clyde business owners
Is a website worth it for a business in a town of 1,355 people?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Haywood County counts 5,698 nonemployer businesses and 1,546 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Clyde is the point of the website.
Can my website list the towns around Clyde that I serve?
Yes. Tell us by email which towns you cover, Asheville and Woodfin included, and they go on the website’s service area page.
Can I sell online from Clyde?
Yes, for the same $89 a month: catalog, cart and online payment. Remember that sales tax applies; North Carolina’s state rate is 4.8%, and local taxes may apply.
Do you work with businesses outside Clyde?
Yes. The plan is the same anywhere in North Carolina, and the website can name every town in Haywood County you cover.
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.
