Before you publish: rules that apply in England
Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in England:
- A limited company must include its name on all company documents, publicity and letters, and on business letters, order forms and websites it must also show its registered number, its registered office address and where it is registered. GOV.UK: company names on websites
- 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
This is general information, not legal advice; confirm the details with the agency behind each item or with a professional adviser.

Answers for East of England business owners
Necton is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes. Customers from across Breckland 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?
If you have one, keep it: we point it to the website. If not, mention it when you sign up and we sort out the options with you by email.
Am I tied in for a year?
No lock-in. The plan is month to month at £69, with nothing to pay before you approve the website.
Who writes the text and picks the photos?
Phone photos of your real work often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.
How long until my website is ready?
The first version is ready within 3 working days, on a temporary link. Going live on your domain comes after your approval and the first payment.
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 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.
