Hiring a web designer for your Loxley business, without the meetings

Aria is a web design company from Curitiba, Brazil, working since 2008. There is no Aria office in Loxley, and you don’t need one: sign-up, material and approval all happen online.

2. Within 5 business days the website is ready on a temporary link, and you review it and ask for changes.
3. Ask for adjustments by email, approve, and after the first monthly fee the site goes live on your domain.

Later on, you send changes by email (a new price, a new photo, a new service) and the team makes them, with no extra charge.

Before you publish: Alabama and federal rules

Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.

• 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
• If you send marketing email from your new business address, the CAN-SPAM rules (16 CFR Part 316) apply, including an easy way for people to opt out. 16 CFR Part 316
• 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 Loxley, that means asking Baldwin County and the City of Loxley. Official source
• 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.
