The Dublin your customers live in

Remote work is common in Dublin: 34.7% of employed residents work from home. People working from home run errands at lunch and book services from the same laptop they work on. A written quote request works for customers who live on email.

• 20 nail salons: services with prices, photos of real work and hours.
• 57 dental offices: insurance plans, new-patient information and a map to the office.

Rules that apply to a Dublin business website

These are some of the California and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

• Alameda County and the City of Dublin may each charge a local business tax; ask both before you open. Official source
• A fictitious business name statement is filed with the county clerk, not the state: a for-profit business using a name other than the owner’s surname files in the county of its principal place of business. California Business and Professions Code section 17900 et seq.
• 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
• California’s statewide sales and use tax rate is 7.25%, and most areas add district taxes of roughly 0.10% to 2.00% on top of it. California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA)
