How the £69 plan works

Since 2008, Aria has been setting up websites, domains and business email for small companies. From Eynsham, the price is the same: one monthly fee of £69, and email is how we talk.

1. Start with the online sign-up (about 5 minutes) and tell us what the business does.
2. Within 3 working days, your website is ready on a temporary link, built with your brand on a proven professional template.
3. Approve the site and pay the first month: only then does it go live on your domain.

After launch, you keep asking for changes by email: a new photo, an updated price, a new service. They are part of the monthly fee.

What England asks of a business online

A website does not need a special licence, but the business behind it follows the usual rules. A few that come up often:

• Organisations, including sole traders, that use personal information need to pay a data protection fee to the ICO, although many can rely on an exemption; the tier 1 fee is £52. ICO: data protection fee
• You cannot set non-essential cookies on your website before the visitor has consented to them, and that consent must be actively and clearly given. ICO: cookies
• You must not send marketing emails or texts to individuals without specific consent; there is a limited exception for your own previous customers, often called the soft opt-in. ICO: email marketing
