I think it's best to describe yourself as a company. It sounds 
contradictory to the first definition you'd find but that's what it is. 
It avoids a lot of being messed about (I've seen).

At the end of the day, you're not going to get two webmasters saying 
"And which company did you get to do this?" - "Oh, I didn't - it was an 
individual."
