Highway traffic also brings freight: trucking, repair, towing and parts suppliers serve people who will never live in Prescott. Say which exit and how to get there from the highway on the contact page, with hours that are always current.

Before you publish: Arkansas and federal rules

Having a website does not change the rules, but a few apply to many Prescott businesses:

• Arkansas’s state sales and use tax rate is 6.5%, and cities and counties add local rates on top of it. Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration
• Out-of-state sellers have to collect Arkansas sales tax once they reach the state threshold: more than $100,000 in sales or 200 or more taxable transactions into Arkansas in the current or previous calendar year. Official source
• Newsletters and promotions sent from your business email must include a working way to unsubscribe (16 CFR Part 316). 16 CFR Part 316
• 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
