Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Muhlenberg County leans toward religious, civic and membership organizations (67 establishments, 3.4 times the national share). For them, members and newcomers look for schedules and contacts, and the website should show meeting times, programs, location and how to get involved.

Kentucky and federal rules for small business websites

Some homework before launch:

• Out-of-state sellers have to collect Kentucky sales tax once they reach the state threshold: 200 or more sales into Kentucky, or $100,000 or more in gross receipts from sales into Kentucky. Kentucky still keeps the 200-transaction test. KRS 139.340(2)(g)
• Kentucky sales and use tax is 6% of gross receipts, and there are no local sales and use taxes anywhere in the state. Kentucky Department of Revenue
