• Hotels and motels, 7 in the count. What works online: rooms, photos, location and a contact form, so travelers can compare you outside the booking apps.

County-wide, Sullivan County counts 2,061 businesses with employees and 6,728 self-employed or nonemployer businesses (2023). Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Sullivan County leans toward nursing and residential care facilities (105 establishments, about five times the national share). For them, families research care for a relative, and the website should show levels of care, photos of the facility, licensing information and how to arrange a visit. The jobs Liberty residents hold are mostly in education, health care and social assistance (29.3%) and manufacturing (16.8%). Every one of them is a search away from a customer in Liberty.

The Liberty climate, from a business owner’s view

The nearest NOAA station with 1991-2020 climate normals, Liberty, is 0.4 miles from Liberty. It records an average high of 79°F in July and an average low of 13°F in January. Precipitation totals about 53 inches a year, with August the wettest month. Freezing nights (32°F or below) come about 163 times a year. Wet seasons bring leaks, flooding and mold calls, and customers search right after the storm. A website that changes with the season helps: new hours, a seasonal service, a storm notice, sent by email and included in the monthly fee.

Before you publish: New York and federal rules

A few rules apply to any Liberty business that sells or advertises online:

• 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
• Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, businesses open to the public must make their goods and services accessible to people with disabilities, and the Justice Department’s guidance says that includes their websites. ADA.gov guidance
• The New York State sales tax rate is 4%; cities, counties and school districts add local rates (roughly 3% to 4.75%), plus an extra 0.375% inside the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation District. New York State Department of Taxation and Finance
