Building a website for a newly launched business involves a short but non-obvious vocabulary lesson. You hear two terms — domain names and web hosting — that come up almost immediately and are often used as similar or even identical things. They’re not. They work as a pair but each one has a different role and confusing them results in purchase decisions that are quite difficult to reverse. Some providers bundle both services with other first-year essentials. These are often a smart choice when you’re still figuring out what you actually need. For example, this business starter kit combines domain…
In New York City, a business can spend heavily on branding, local SEO, paid search, social media, and storefront design — yet still lose customers at the final moment: the street. If the sign is hard to see, poorly installed, badly lit, or visually weak, people walk past. That is why choosing a sign install company NYC businesses can trust is not just an operations decision. It is a marketing decision. Exterior signage works as a permanent local advertising channel: it tells pedestrians, commuters, drivers, delivery workers, and nearby residents that the business exists, where it is, and whether it…

The US justice department announced a $1.7bn (£1.3bn) fund to compensate allies of President Donald Trump who allege they were unfairly investigated by the Biden administration. The “Anti-Weaponization Fund” was unveiled “in exchange” for the president dropping his $10bn lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) over the leak of his tax returns, said the justice department. Democrats criticised the settlement as a “slush fund” paid out of taxpayer money for Trump and his cronies from a federal agency overseen by him. The lawsuit’s plaintiffs, which include Trump’s elder sons and the Trump Organization, will receive an apology, but no…
A California jury has tossed out Elon Musk’s high-profile lawsuit against OpenAI and its boss Sam Altman. In a unanimous verdict, the jury agreed that Musk had waited too long to file his lawsuit, leaving all of his claims essentially expired. Musk had accused Altman of breaching a non-profit contract by shifting the ChatGPT-maker to a for-profit company after Musk donated $38m (£28.5m) early in OpenAI’s history. Musk claimed Altman had deceived him by accepting his money and then reneging on OpenAI’s original non-profit mission to develop artificial intelligence (AI) technology for the benefit of humanity. Jurors spent just about…

A Spanish court has ordered the country’s tax authority to refund €55m (£48m, $64m) to singer Shakira after ruling that the money was improperly collected in a dispute over her taxes. The national high court has acquitted the Colombian singer of tax fraud and ordered the Treasury to repay the money plus interest to her. It said tax authorities had failed to prove she spent 183 days in Spain in 2011 – the minimum required for residents to pay personal income tax there. Shakira said the court had “finally set the record straight” after she had spent eight years “enduring…

The Government announced a series of interventions aimed at cushioning Kenyans from rising fuel prices triggered by the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict, which has disrupted global oil supply chains.

Prof Kindiki said the Government had already reduced Value Added…
