Before you sign up: questions from Hardin
How do I tell customers in Liberty that I serve their town?
Yes. Send the list of towns you serve by email (Daisetta, Liberty, Dayton Lakes or any others) and the website gets a service area page with all of them.
With 878 people in Hardin, is a website worth the money?
Your market is bigger than the city: Liberty County has 10,487 nonemployer businesses and 1,206 with employees (2023), and customers search across the whole area. A website is how people outside Hardin find you.
Do you have an office in Hardin?
No visits: Aria works remotely from Curitiba, Brazil. You send your logo, photos and texts by email, and approve the website on a temporary link.
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.
