Businesses in and around Bowers

ZIP code 19946, which covers Bowers and the area around it, had 39 business establishments with employees in 2023. A few examples from the same count:

• Remodeling contractors: 3. Their website should show a gallery of past remodels, a clear list of what you do and don’t take on, and a form that sends estimate requests to your inbox.

In Kent County, the Census counted 4,971 businesses with employees and 17,053 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Kent County has 2.4 times the national share of performing arts and spectator sports businesses: 96 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, audiences look for schedules and tickets, so the website should show the schedule, venue information and how to buy tickets.

How a website for $89 a month works

Aria has built websites since 2008 and is based in Curitiba, Brazil. We don’t have an office in Bowers: the whole process happens online, and the plan is the same $89 a month in any city.

1. Fill in the sign-up form (about 5 minutes) and send your material by email.
2. Within 5 business days the website is ready on a temporary link, and you review it and ask for changes.
3. Approve it: the first monthly fee is issued and your domain starts showing the new site.

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.

Rules that apply to a Bowers business website

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

• Delaware charges no sales tax. Instead it levies a gross receipts tax on the seller’s total revenue, at rates that vary by business activity, so the customer sees no tax line but the business owes tax on what it collects. Delaware Division of Revenue
• An operator of a commercial website, online service or mobile app that collects personally identifiable information from Delaware users must make its privacy policy conspicuously available on the site. There is no size threshold, so this reaches a small business website; an operator only violates the rule if it fails to post the policy within 30 days of being notified. 6 Del. C. Chapter 12C (Online and Personal Privacy Protection), 1205C
