What Alabama asks of a business with a website

Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but a few apply to many Brewton businesses:

• Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance
• 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
• Alabama business privilege licenses are issued at county level; the state Department of Revenue coordinates state and county business privilege licenses, and the county probate office issues them. In Brewton, that means asking Escambia County and the City of Brewton. Official source
• Alabama’s state sales and use tax rate on general merchandise is 4%, with a reduced 2% rate on food and groceries since September 1, 2025; cities and counties add their own rates. Alabama Department of Revenue

2. Your website is ready within 5 business days on a temporary link, so you can check every page before anything is published.

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.
