The Structure, The Government's Pay, and the Build

The Structure
Because I have already started a business, I have understood the structures of various businesses. I would want to start off my business as a sole prop. That is, me owning the company as a whole, with the me being the legal entity of the business. I am not separated from the business, I essentially am the business. So if the business were to get sued, I would get sued. This structure is simple and there aren't too many fees related to this business structure.

Later, I would want to organize the company as an LLC with me as president. This organization will create itself as the business entity. There won't be too many troubles with registering the company. It will be a lot easier to establish this organization rather than a corporation.

The Government's Pay
Taxes. That is something that is inevitable with living with this country, but that is another discussion. As of right now, the company is organized as an Sole Prop. And because it is, I will be in charge of paying taxes for myself as well as the business. The business will be taxed based upon its income. Another main tax that is paid is a Sales and Use tax. That will be for any product that I sell that should be taxed.

The Build
This week we find a host, a website builder and someone to use for purchases. I find that this exercise, which is us putting our knowledge to the test, very helpful. If we "theoretically" go over the knowledge, we only learn so much. But because we are doing the steps to build a website, I find that this is a great way to be able to get some sort of site up and running. mpnv.co is the website. I hope to get more helpful sites on the website up.

Building and Hosting

Since two weeks ago, I've done a lot of things to get myself started on the webpage. Throughout the week, here are some of the things that I learned.

Weebly
There are various site builders out there. I have found one that there is one site that I like the best. Weebly.com. There are many features that Weebly has that is very beneficial for a website builder. There are many sites that have this, but I think that Weebly has focused on drag-and-drop feature of webpage elements. This makes something complex, into a simpler way to create a website. Mobile phone apps are also really great. There is an app through Weebly that could make website management easier. Those are some items that I found beneficial with the other added benefits.

WordPress
WordPress is another popular website for building a website. It is a little more difficult using the WordPress services. But with given time, WordPress could offer more functionality than Weebly. It also provides a lot of the same services as Weebly. WordPress was originally created for blogging, but it can be manipulated to accomplish basic website design features.

WebHosting
Another activity that we had accomplished this week was finding a host. We had looked through various web hosts and found features that we liked. I have currently been working with Just Host and have been very pleased with their services. I decided that I would be switching to iPage.com. I feel that there might be an edge with choosing that website than my current host.
