Web Design in Dundee, Florida

Designing a website around Dundee’s customers

About 10.1% of homes in Dundee are seasonal or vacation properties. Property owners who are out of town need a website and a contact form, not a storefront.

Children and teenagers make up 23.6% of Dundee’s population. Busy families decide quickly, so the website has to answer the basic questions fast.

Small business websites in Dundee: the local business mix

ZIP code 33838, mostly within Dundee, had 126 employer establishments in the 2023 count. Some of the businesses behind that number:

• Beauty salons (3): services, the stylists, photos of their work and a way to ask for an appointment.

Across Polk County, County Business Patterns counted 13,992 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 77,602 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners.

What Florida asks of a business with a website

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

• Doing business under a name that is not your legal name? Florida calls that a fictitious name, and it has to be registered first. Section 865.09, Florida Statutes
• If your website sells products, collect 7.0% on most taxable sales delivered in Polk County: 6% state tax plus the county’s 1.0% surtax for 2026. DR-15DSS (2026)
• Florida counties and cities may each levy a local business tax for the privilege of doing business in their jurisdiction (Chapter 205, Florida Statutes), so a business can owe a county receipt and a city receipt. In Dundee, that means asking Polk County and the Town of Dundee. Sections 205.032 (counties) and 205.042 (municipalities), Florida Statutes
• Under ADA Title III, a business open to the public should make its website usable by people with disabilities, according to the Justice Department’s guidance. ADA.gov guidance
