In Logan County, the Census counted 536 businesses with employees and 1,337 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Logan County leans toward nondurable goods wholesalers (34 establishments, 4.4 times the national share). In that business, restaurants, shops and institutions order by catalog, and the website should show the catalog, delivery routes and how to become a customer. None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.

Illinois rules to know before your website goes live
A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Illinois rules as any other.
- Illinois taxes general merchandise at a 6.25% state Retailers’ Occupation Tax rate, with a preferential 1% rate on qualifying drugs and medical appliances; municipalities and counties add local rates. Illinois Department of Revenue
- Doing business under a name that is not your legal name? Illinois calls that an assumed business name, and it has to be registered first. Assumed Business Name Act, 805 ILCS 405
- Illinois has no statewide general business license; cities and counties impose their own taxes and may require zoning permits, so the city or county clerk is the place to check. In Hartsburg, that means asking Logan County and the Village of Hartsburg. Official source
This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your village hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
