42.7% of households in Westoning live in a detached house, against 22.9% across England. That says a lot about what a website for a Westoning business should show first. For £69 a month, we set up a professional website with your brand, email on your domain and hosting, with no setup fee.
No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website.

England rules for a business with a website
Some homework for Westoning businesses before the website goes live:
- 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
- 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
- Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine. GOV.UK: unfair commercial practices
