Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Some homework for Mullion businesses before the website goes live:

  • 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
  • When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling

Every business is different, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.

Web design in Mullion: frequent questions

Mullion is small. Do I really need a website?

Yes. Customers from across Cornwall search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.

I already own a domain. Can I keep it?

Your domain stays yours. Bring the one you have, or let us know you need one and we will help you choose.

Can the site list the places around Mullion that I cover?

Yes. Email us the places you serve (say Lizard, Porthleven and Helston) and we put them on a page of their own.

How many email accounts do I get?

Email on your own domain comes with the plan, such as info@yourbusiness: unlimited accounts, 5 GB of storage in total, webmail and spam filtering.

What is the website built on?

On the Aria Platform, which is built on WordPress and set up by our team, so you get a professional site without dealing with the technical side.

Do we need to meet?

It all happens by email: you send material and change requests, and you check the whole site on a temporary link before it goes live.

What do I need to send?

Phone photos of your real work often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.

Do I pay anything to get started?

No. No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website. No lock-in contract. You can stop the service whenever you need to.
