Say which exit and how to get there from the highway on the contact page, and keep the hours right. With those details in place, the rest of the site can stay simple.

Louisiana and federal rules for small business websites

Some homework before launch:

• Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
• Newsletters and promotions sent from your business email must include a working way to unsubscribe (16 CFR Part 316). 16 CFR Part 316

This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your town hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
