Climate normals for Redbird

A website that changes with the season help: winter hours, summer specials, storm-season notices, sent by email and included in the monthly fee.

Naming Porter, Coweta and the other places you cover on a service area page tells customers outside Redbird that you work there too.

Wagoner County as a whole had 1,128 employer establishments in 2023 and another 7,264 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Construction accounts for 20.2% of the county’s employer establishments, ahead of retail trade (10.9%) and other services (repair, personal care, organizations) (9.5%). Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.

Running a website from Redbird: the Oklahoma rules

Some homework before launch:

• Oklahoma’s state sales and use tax rate is 4.5% of gross receipts from the sale or rental of tangible personal property, and counties and municipalities add their own rates. Since August 2024, food and food ingredients are exempt from the 4.5% state rate but still subject to local rates. Oklahoma Tax Commission
• 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

Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
