Website design in Calvert City, Kentucky.

I have lived in Calvert City my whole life. Marshall County High School in Benton is ten minutes down the road. This is the town on my Google listing.

Two kinds of customer here, and they do not find you the same way.

The plants on the river are why this town is what it is. Westlake, Wacker, Arkema and Ashland all run operations here.

A lot of business here gets done with the plants rather than the public. If you weld, haul, scaffold, clean or supply, your customer is often somebody inside a fence. That person has to justify picking you to somebody above them, and what they find online is part of it.

Then there is Exit 27. All summer it drops lake traffic onto that ramp. Those people have never heard of you, and they are searching from the truck.

Local, with work you can check.

My Google listing says Calvert City, and email comes straight to me. I built paducahchiefs.com for the Paducah Chiefs, twenty-five minutes up the road. Pull it up on your phone and judge it yourself, or see the full project.

Three things that matter most in Calvert City.

A site that answers before anybody calls

Most people decide before they ever contact you. A lot of them are reading you on a phone in a truck. It has to load fast and say what you do in one screen.

Getting found by people who do not know you

Word of mouth already handles the people who know you. This is the other half: your Google listing, your hours, your map pin and a real page for each thing you do.

A page a plant buyer can forward

If you sell into the plants, somebody inside has to pass your name up the chain. Make that easy for them. One page with what you do, what you are qualified for and who to email.

If a Facebook page is all you need, I will say so.

Plenty of businesses here run on a Facebook page alone. It has a real limit: nobody finds you by searching for what you do, so they have to already know you. For some businesses that limit does not matter much, and I would rather say so than sell you a site.

Tell me your business name and I will write back with what I would change.
