Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Some homework for Feniton businesses before the website goes live:

• A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
• 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

This is general information, not legal advice; confirm the details with the agency behind each item or with a professional adviser.

How the £69 plan works

Aria is a web design team that has been building small business websites since 2008. Nothing needs to happen in person: you send what you have by email and see the whole website on a temporary link before it goes live.

1. Sign up online in roughly 5 minutes, then email us your logo and a few photos.
2. Within 3 working days, your website is ready on a temporary link, built with your brand on a proven professional template.
3. When you are happy with it, you approve, the first £69 fee is issued, and the site is published 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.
