Angelina County has 2.1 times the national share of vehicle dealers: 58 of them in the 2023 count. In that line of work, shoppers browse inventory and compare prices online, so the website should show inventory, financing information as allowed by law, service department hours and directions.

None of them needs a complicated site; they need one that answers the customer’s first questions honestly.

Texas and federal rules for small business websites

These are some of the Texas and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

• The Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA) rarely reaches a local business: The chapter reaches a person who does business in Texas or sells products or services consumed by Texans, processes or sells personal data, and is NOT a small business under the United States Small Business Administration definition. A typical small business is therefore outside the main obligations, but Section 541.107 still applies to it: a small business may not sell sensitive personal data without the consumer’s prior consent. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Chapter 541 (HB 4, 88th Legislature, 2023)
• 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
• 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 Hudson, that means asking Angelina County and the City of Hudson. Official source
