A web designer’s view of Riverside’s businesses

Some of the business types in Okanogan County, from the 2023 County Business Patterns:

• Custom home builders: 51. Their website should show floor plans and photos of homes you have built, the lots or areas you build in and a way to start a conversation.
• RV parks and campgrounds: 7. Their website should show site types, amenities, rules, a map and a contact form for availability.
• Child care centers: 23. Their website should show the program, licensing information, the staff and a contact form for parents.
• Sporting goods stores: 7. Their website should show the brands you carry, store hours and an online store if you want to sell beyond the counter.
• Full-service restaurants: 37. Their website should show a menu page you can update by email, your hours and a map, plus a contact form for events and large groups.

Okanogan County as a whole had 1,202 employer establishments in 2023 and another 2,589 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. 26 farm and forestry support services operate in Okanogan County, far more than what the national mix would predict. In that line of work, farmers book custom harvesting, spraying and equipment work by the season; the website should give customers the crops, acres or animals you handle, your equipment and the counties you cover. Hotels, inns and other lodging are also overrepresented (41, four times the national share). Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.

Before you publish: Washington and federal rules

Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.

• Check with both Okanogan County and the Town of Riverside about local business tax receipts before opening. Official source
• Washington’s state retail sales tax rate is 6.5%, with a local rate added depending on the city or county. Washington State Department of Revenue
• Washington’s My Health My Data Act reaches any legal entity, of any size, that does business in Washington or targets Washington consumers and decides how consumer health data is collected, processed, shared or sold. A website that gathers anything about a visitor’s health – a symptom form, an appointment request for a clinic, a wellness quiz – needs a separate consumer health data privacy policy, consent before collecting, and authorization before selling. Small businesses (fewer than 100,000 consumers, or under 50% of revenue from health data and fewer than 25,000 consumers) had to comply from June 30, 2024. Chapter 19.373 RCW (Chapter 191, Laws of 2023)
