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

Rules that apply to a Woodland business website

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Illinois rules as any other.

• Illinois taxes general merchandise at a 6.25% state Retailers’ Occupation Tax rate, with a preferential 1% rate on qualifying drugs and medical appliances; municipalities and counties add local rates. Illinois Department of Revenue
• 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
• Local business tax receipts in Illinois can come from the county and, inside city or town limits, from the municipality: for you, Iroquois County and Woodland. Official source
