Ellenton: the numbers behind the market

A web designer’s view of Ellenton’s businesses

From the 2023 county count for Colquitt County:

• Physician practices (34): office hours, locations and what to bring to a first visit.
• Used car dealers (7): your inventory photos, financing information you are allowed to share and a contact form.
• Local trucking companies (16): the freight you haul, the areas you cover and a contact form for shippers.
• Hardware stores (6): departments, store hours and services such as key cutting or rentals.

Colquitt County as a whole had 951 employer establishments in 2023 and another 3,661 nonemployer businesses, the one-person shops and independent contractors that often have no website at all. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Colquitt County leans toward vehicle dealers (32 establishments, 2.3 times the national share). In that business, shoppers browse inventory and compare prices online, and the website should show inventory, financing information as allowed by law, service department hours and directions. The county also has a strong cluster of building material and garden stores (21 establishments, 2.6 times the national share).

What Georgia asks of a business with a website

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

• Georgia’s state sales and use tax rate is 4%, and every county adds local taxes, so the combined rate is typically 7% to 9%. Georgia Department of Revenue
• Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance
