How Aria builds a Colome website

Aria is a web design company from Curitiba, Brazil, working since 2008. There is no Aria office in Colome, and you don’t need one: sign-up, material and approval all happen online.

1. Register your business online in about 5 minutes; the logo, photos and texts you already have go by email.
2. Review the website on a temporary link, ready within 5 business days, and request any changes by email.
3. Once you approve it, the first monthly fee is issued and the website goes live on your domain.

Later on, you send changes by email (a new price, a new photo, a new service) and the team makes them, with no extra charge.

• Out-of-state sellers have to collect South Dakota sales tax once they reach the state threshold: More than $100,000 in gross revenue from sales into South Dakota in the previous or current calendar year (the Department’s page lists no transaction-count test). Official source
