7,250 businesses with employees operated in 2023 in the ZIP codes centered on Gilbert (85236, 85233, 85234, 85297, 85296, 85295 and others), according to the Census Bureau. A few examples from the same count:

  • Real estate offices: 428. Their website should show the agents, the neighborhoods you know best and a contact form for buyers and sellers.
  • Counseling and mental health practices: 75. Their website should show who you work with, how sessions work (in person or online) and a discreet contact form.
  • Insurance agencies: 147. Their website should show auto, home and business coverage on separate pages with a contact form for quotes.
  • Coffee shops and snack bars: 100. Their website should show the menu, hours and photos of the place, so people find you before they walk in.
  • Pest control companies: 44. Their website should show service plans in plain words and what to expect on the first visit.

Maricopa County as a whole had 109,863 employer establishments in 2023 and another 401,448 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. One sector stands out in Maricopa County: real estate businesses, with 8,251 establishments and 1.5 times the national share. What their websites need: listings or the areas you cover, agent profiles and a contact form for each kind of client. Every one of them is a search away from a customer in Gilbert.

Rules that apply to a Gilbert business website

Selling or advertising online brings no special license, but a few apply to many Gilbert businesses:

  • A contact form collects personal information, and Arizona has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. A.R.S. 18-552 (Notification of security system breaches)
  • Arizona taxes retail sales through the transaction privilege tax: 5% under A.R.S. 42-5010 plus a 0.6% increment under A.R.S. 42-5010.01, for a 5.6% state rate, and counties and cities add their own rates. Arizona Department of Revenue
  • Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance
