Compared with the U.S. as a whole, Sublette County leans toward hotels, inns and other lodging (15 establishments, four times the national share). For them, travelers compare rooms, rates and location, and the website should show rooms with real photos, amenities, location and how to reserve by email or through your booking channel. The county also has a strong cluster of homebuilders and building contractors (31 establishments, 2.3 times the national share). The jobs Pinedale residents hold are mostly in education, health care and social assistance (10.7%) and arts, entertainment, recreation, lodging and food service (5.7%). Most of these businesses are small, and the website does the job a front desk would do in a bigger company.

The legal basics for Pinedale businesses online

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

• Registering a DBA is optional in Wyoming. A business that wants one files an Application for Registration of Trade Name with the Secretary of State; the name must already be in use, the filing fee is $100 and the registration lasts ten years. W.S. 40-2-101 through 40-2-109
• Wyoming charges a mandatory statewide 4% sales and use tax, and counties may add voter-approved local pennies, so the total rate runs roughly from 4% to 8%. Wyoming Department of Revenue, Excise Tax Division

Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
