How a website for $89 a month works

Aria is a web design company based in Curitiba, Brazil, building websites, online stores and business email since 2008. We don’t have an office in Marysville: the whole process happens online, and the plan is the same $89 a month in any city.

1. Start with the online sign-up, which takes about 5 minutes, and send your material by email.
2. Review the website on a temporary link, ready within 5 business days, and request any changes by email.
3. Approve it: the first monthly fee is issued and your domain starts showing the new site.

After launch, changes to text, photos and prices are requested by email and are part of the monthly fee; quick questions go by email too.

Paperwork and rules for Iowa businesses online

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

• Out-of-state sellers have to collect Iowa sales tax once they reach the state threshold: $100,000 or more in gross revenue from Iowa sales in the immediately preceding or the current calendar year. There is no transaction-count test. Iowa Code 423.14A(3)(a)
• Iowa’s state sales tax rate is 6%, and many cities and counties add a 1% local option sales tax on top of it. Iowa Department of Revenue

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