By the 1991-2020 normals of the Hiram weather station (4.9 miles from Windham), July highs average 81°F and January lows average 16°F. Precipitation totals about 44 inches a year, with July the wettest month. Freezing nights (32°F or below) come about 138 times a year.

How a website for $89 a month works
Aria works from Curitiba, Brazil, and has built websites for businesses since 2008. We don’t have an office in Windham: the whole process happens online, and the plan is the same $89 a month in any city.
- Sign up online in about 5 minutes; the logo, photos and texts you already have go by email.
- Within 5 business days the website is ready on a temporary link, and you review it and ask for changes.
- Once you approve it, the first monthly fee is issued and the website goes live on your domain.
Later on, you send changes by email (a new price, a new photo, a new service) and the team makes them, with no extra charge.
- Business website or online store, same price
- Your domain, registered and renewed by us (or the one you already have)
- Business email on your domain: 5 GB, webmail and spam filtering
- Hosting, SSL certificate and daily backups

The legal basics for Windham businesses online
These are some of the Ohio and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:
- Ohio’s state sales tax rate is 5.75%. Counties and regional transit authorities may each levy sales tax in increments of 0.05% up to 1.5%, and the combined state, county and transit rate cannot exceed 8.75%. Ohio Department of Taxation
- A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465
Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
Questions we hear about websites in Windham
Will people in Craig Beach and Mantua see that I work there too?
Yes. A service area page can name each town you cover, such as Craig Beach, Mantua and Newton Falls.
Windham is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Portage County counts 11,742 nonemployer businesses and 3,051 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Windham is the point of the website.
Can the website be an online store?
Yes. The plan can be an online store with a catalog, shopping cart and online payment, for the same $89 a month. Collecting sales tax is your responsibility: Ohio’s state rate is 5.8%, and local taxes may apply.
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.
