A web designer’s view of East Mountain’s businesses
East Mountain shares ZIP code 75645 with the surrounding area, where 93 employer businesses were counted in 2023. Among them:
- Roofing contractors: 3. Their website should show photos of roofs you replaced, the materials you install and a form for inspection requests.
- Physical, occupational and speech therapy practices: 3. Their website should show the conditions you treat, the therapists, the insurance you accept and a referral or contact form.
Across Upshur County, County Business Patterns counted 577 employer establishments in 2023, and the Nonemployer Statistics add 3,679 businesses with no payroll, most of them self-employed owners. Upshur County has 1.8 times the national share of religious, civic and membership organizations: 39 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, members and newcomers look for schedules and contacts, so the website should show meeting times, programs, location and how to get involved. The county also has a strong cluster of banks and lenders (22 establishments, 1.8 times the national share). For any of them, a clear website is the difference between being compared and being skipped.
Running a website from East Mountain: the Texas rules
Having a website does not change the rules, but these apply to most East Mountain businesses:
- Texas charges a 6.25% state sales and use tax, and local jurisdictions may add up to 2%, for a maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
- A business that holds sensitive personal information must notify the people affected by a breach and, when at least 250 Texas residents are involved, must also notify the Texas Attorney General within 60 days of determining that the breach happened. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Section 521.053
- Texas has no state-level general license, but city and county permits still apply, so check the local county and city government where the business operates. In East Mountain, that means asking Upshur County and the City of East Mountain. Official source
