Hey guys,
A bit of a rookie question but thought this might be a good spot for some advice. I've developed an online product around managing one's website through a content management system. The catch is that I need to host the product so I'm not really selling it but rather renting it to a user (almost like web hosting). I'm thinking a monthly fee.
Now I want to make sure I'm doing the right things tax-wise. What do I need to do in the way of collecting taxes when providing a service like the one mentioned above? I have a registered business in Canada, I haven't setup a GST/HST number yet. Also, what do I need to do when offering this service in the U.S. or country other than Canada too?

Any advice/instruction would be awesome! Thanks!!

J.
