What kind of businesses Springfield has
Some of the business types in Orangeburg County, from the 2023 County Business Patterns:
- Hotels and motels: 37. Their website should show rooms, photos, location and a contact form, so travelers can compare you outside the booking apps.
- Quick-service restaurants: 74. Their website should show the menu with prices, hours and the closest cross streets.
- Local trucking companies: 23. Their website should show the freight you haul, the areas you cover and a contact form for shippers.
- Pharmacies: 15. Their website should show hours, services such as vaccines, the insurance you accept and a map.
- Funeral homes: 9. Their website should show your services explained with care, contact information and directions.
- Insurance agencies: 25. Their website should show auto, home and business coverage on separate pages with a contact form for quotes.
In Orangeburg County, the Census counted 1,630 businesses with employees and 5,835 without a payroll in 2023; the second group is where a simple, affordable website changes the most. Orangeburg County has three times the national share of hotels, inns and other lodging: 42 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, travelers compare rooms, rates and location, so the website should show rooms with real photos, amenities, location and how to reserve by email or through your booking channel. For any of them, a clear website is the difference between being compared and being skipped.

South Carolina rules to know before your website goes live
A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same South Carolina rules as any other.
- South Carolina’s statewide sales and use tax rate is 6%, and a county may add up to 1% in local sales tax if its voters approve it. South Carolina Department of Revenue
- Cities and counties may impose a business license tax by ordinance, so check both the city and the county where the business operates; the standard license year runs from May 1 to April 30. In Springfield, that means asking Orangeburg County and the Town of Springfield. S.C. Code Ann. Sections 6-1-315 and 6-1-400 et seq. (Business License Tax Standardization Act)
- A contact form collects personal information, and South Carolina has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. S.C. Code Ann. Section 39-1-90
This is general information, not legal advice; check with the South Carolina agencies, Orangeburg County, the town of Springfield or an attorney.
