Before you publish: North Dakota and federal rules
Some homework before launch:
- North Dakota’s state sales tax rate is 5% for most retail sales, and cities and counties may levy their own sales and use taxes on top of it. North Dakota Office of State Tax Commissioner
- A sole proprietor or other business using a ‘doing business as’ name registers a trade name with the Secretary of State through the FirstStop portal ($25). Registration gives exclusive rights to the name within North Dakota only and must be renewed every five years. Official source
Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
What Binford business owners ask us
I work in Binford and nearby towns. Can the website say that?
Yes. A service area page can name each town you cover, such as Pekin, Glenfield and Cooperstown.
Is a website worth it for a business in a city of 162 people?
Yes, because the competition is county-wide: Griggs County counts 203 nonemployer businesses and 82 with employees (2023). Being findable outside Binford is the point of the website.
How long until my website is ready?
Within 5 business days of receiving your material, on a temporary link. You review it, ask for changes, approve, and then it goes live.
Is there a setup fee?
No. No setup fee: you only pay the $89 monthly fee, after you approve your website. There is no lock-in contract either: you can end the service whenever you need.
