Industries that stand out in Mid Devon
The Mid Devon local authority area had 5,060 local business units in 2026. The sectors below are more common here than across England, with what each one’s website should show:
- Farms and agricultural businesses (1,295 sites): where to buy their products and what they grow or raise.
- Hotels, B&Bs and holiday lets (65 sites): rates by season and how to get there.
- Trades such as electricians, plumbers and roofers (425 sites): a quote form that lands in their inbox and the services they offer and where.
- Manufacturers and engineering workshops (30 sites): industries they serve and certifications.
Among the most common trades: 35 hairdressing and beauty businesses, 15 hotels and 20 childcare day centres. Small firms dominate: 88.2% have fewer than ten staff, and 22.9% are sole proprietors. In every one of these sectors, the website that wins is the one that answers questions before the customer has to ask.

What England asks of a business online
Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in England:
- 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
- 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.
