Small business website advice, D’Iberville edition

Young children are a big part of D’Iberville: 5.8% of residents are under 5, and 28.5% are under 18. Busy households rarely call to ask; when the basics are missing, they move to the next result. Real photos of the place and the staff and your rules in plain words answer what parents worry about. That is the work a small business website does best: answering the first questions before anyone has to ask.

D’Iberville is on Interstate 10 and Interstate 110, so some of the people looking for food, fuel, lodging and repairs are just passing through. Travelers search from the road, want an answer in seconds and rarely call to ask what you have. One screen with services, hours and location is what a traveler needs.

Mississippi and federal rules for small business websites

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Mississippi rules as any other.

• Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance
• Mississippi’s regular retail sales tax rate is 7%. Groceries dropped to 5% on July 1, 2025. Local add-ons exist only at the city level: Tupelo adds 0.25% and Jackson adds 1% on certain sales. A sales tax permit from the Department of Revenue is required before doing business, one per location. Mississippi Department of Revenue
• Newsletters and promotions sent from your business email must include a working way to unsubscribe (16 CFR Part 316). 16 CFR Part 316
