My Tractor Business Website

I don't see the issue with the website designer's mention. To me that says you are a professional business who hired a professional designer to do your site, not some amateur who cobbled together his own site because he was too under-funded to get it done right.

Hmmm...I "cobbled" mine together. I think it looks okay. :confused3:

Designing a website is not rocket surgery.

It's a requirement here in Arizona, if you are not a licensed contractor you can operate under the handyman clause, but you have to state in all advertisements "Not a Licensed Contractor". To become licensed they do not count years of operating machinery, they want you to show W-2's for three years working under a company. It would be nice if they had a large dirt lot and they tested you on your ability. So in three years I can show them my tax returns and become licensed, it's really another case of government hindrance of small business.

Yeh, but it also prevents unethical, unreliable, untrained people fom claiming they know what they're doing.

Can we get this instituted for Congress?

Here we have people say they are a licensed Roofer when there is no such license.

Must be licensed to Drive to the work site :laughing:

Especially when the link to the login goes to WordPress.

OK with the designer name, just don't link to him. IMHO.

edit: fixed link to login, not link to designer.

I believe that AZ law requires a contractors license for any work over $1,000. Penalties for not having one can be severe.

You are correct, any work has to be under $1000.00 per job.

Gravel driveway prep $999.99
Gravel delivery $999.99
Gravel install $999.99

Separate contracts of course...

I was a licensed concrete and general contractor in SoCal for over 20 years before moving here. There were still more guys out there flying under the radar than not. That's why I went commercial. Here in Texas there are no licensing requirements for most trades. Except for those of us with liability insurance and those without, it does make for a more level playing field.
