Copyright.

That kills (figuratively speaking) more websites than anything else.

One of the legal issues that a webmaster must makes sure he complies and be cautious about is age restrictions. Adult contents should be restricted for children by making sure there is warning or kind of notice that you must be plus 18 before accessing the site. Sites like gambling, porn etc.

There are several legal issues related to websites that you can encounter, such as copyright violations such as stealing content, images or videos, as well as hate speech against religion, ethnicity, race and groups. Also in some countries gambling and pornography sites are considered unlawful etc. Maybe this is the main legal issue that you need to avoid when creating a website.

Well, the fact remains that there are many issues a website may face. Copyright infringement is definitely one of them. The fact remains that there are many people who may need to focus on this. Plagiarised content should never be allowed.

One of the legal issues websites face is privacy issues. In my country, it is prescribed by the constitution that all sites must explicitly state the kind of data they keep about a user and prompts them on this to accept or not.

To avoid problems with your website, you must do thorough research regarding the legalities of web creation. Specify in your web who could possibly watch the contents of your website, however, not all people declare their true ages which is why violations remain unsolved.

Copyright concerns.
Domain name concerns.

Websites often face privacy issues and in some countries the constitution clearly states that the site must tell the user what data is stored and also prompt them to accept or decline. This is important because without transparency, people lose trust and the company can get into serious trouble. Every site must have transparency on data protection to protect users and their assets. Compliance here becomes the foundation of a business. The Chinese proverb says that a fish dies without water, so without transparency, a site dies.
