A web designer’s view of Jordan’s businesses

ZIP code 55352, which covers Jordan and the area around it, had 276 business establishments with employees in 2023. A sample of that count, and what each kind of business needs online:

• Landscaping companies, 17 in the count. What works online: seasonal services, photos of yards you take care of and a quick way for new customers to reach you.
• Local trucking companies, 4 in the count. What works online: the freight you haul, the areas you cover and a contact form for shippers.
• Chiropractic offices, 3 in the count. What works online: what a first visit looks like, your hours, the insurance you accept and a way to request an appointment.

Scott County has 1.8 times the national share of specialty trade contractors: 423 of them in the 2023 count.

Minnesota and federal rules for small business websites

Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but a few apply to most Jordan businesses:

• Minnesota’s state sales tax is 6.875%: a 6.5% general rate plus the 0.375% increase required by the Minnesota Constitution. Cities, counties and special districts add local sales taxes on top of it. Minnesota Department of Revenue
• A business trading under a name that does not set out the true name of every owner files a certificate of assumed name with the Minnesota Secretary of State. Minnesota also requires the certificate to be published in a qualified newspaper in the county of the principal office for two successive issues. Minn. Stat. 333.01
• Fake or bought reviews are illegal under a federal rule in force since 2024 (16 CFR Part 465): post only real ones. 16 CFR Part 465
