Without knowing where you are located no one can give you a 100% correct answer.

Here services are not taxed under the state sales tax act. All I would need to do to be legal is file a a d/ba/ form with the county clerk, pay a local business license fee and secure a local tax id number. The dba would not be needed if I were using my personal name as the name of the company.

Your part of the world may have a completely different set of rules.

I'm sorry, I was in a hurry this morning. Okay. I am located in Towanda, PA. Like I said above, its just going to be a small hosting business geared towards local businesses. I remember hearing somehting about some kind of thing "Doing business as Company Name" instead of the company being my name. Anyone know how to go about that or know where I can look?

Start with a call to your county clerk or registars office as they are called some places. Division of licensing or tax collection. Government in the phone book.
