Local competition in Buncombe
From the 2023 county count for Johnson County:
- Site preparation contractors, 5 in the count. What works online: the equipment you run, the kinds of jobs you take and a contact form for builders and owners.
- Insurance agencies, 5 in the count. What works online: a page per type of coverage, the agents and a contact form that sends quote requests to your email.
- Full-service restaurants, 7 in the count. What works online: the menu, the dining room, private-event information and the hours, kept current by email.
In Johnson County, the Census counted 175 businesses with employees and 797 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most.

Paperwork and rules for Illinois businesses online
Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.
- 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
- Illinois splits the DBA filing: a sole proprietorship or general partnership registers the assumed business name with the county clerk, while a corporation, LLC or LLP registers an assumed name with the Secretary of State. Assumed Business Name Act, 805 ILCS 405
- Illinois has no statewide general business license; cities and counties impose their own taxes and may require zoning permits, so the city or county clerk is the place to check. In Buncombe, that means asking Johnson County and the Village of Buncombe. Official source
