Lincoln Center up close: notes for a small business website

Lincoln County counts 222 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners, next to 85 with employees. Solo owners compete on reputation with bigger firms, and a proper website levels much of that field. A domain of your own and an email address on it signal a real business, and both come with the plan.
