West Virginia and federal rules for small business websites

Some homework before launch:

  • Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, businesses open to the public must make their goods and services accessible to people with disabilities, and the Justice Department’s guidance says that includes their websites. ADA.gov guidance
  • West Virginia’s state sales and use tax rate is 6%, and a municipality may add up to 1% more. West Virginia Tax Division
