Rules that apply to a Grano business website
Some homework before launch:
- Accessibility is a federal matter: the Justice Department’s ADA guidance covers the websites of businesses open to the public. ADA.gov guidance
- 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
Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
Small business website questions from Grano
Will people in Donnybrook and Carpio see that I work there too?
Yes. List Donnybrook, Carpio, Tolley or any other place you work on a service area page, and every page keeps the contact form.
Does a small business in Grano need a website?
Your customers come from all of Renville County, not only Grano: the county has 109 businesses with employees and 177 without (2023). The website is what they find when they search.
Can the website be an online store?
Yes. The plan can be an online store with a catalog, shopping cart and online payment, for the same $89 a month. Collecting sales tax is your responsibility: North Dakota’s state rate is 5%, and local taxes may apply.
Do I need professional photos?
Photos of your real work or place, taken with a good phone, usually say more than stock images; send them by email with your logo and service descriptions.
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.
