Getting a Worrall business online: the steps

Aria has built business websites for small companies since 2008, with every step handled online. 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. Tell us about the business in the sign-up form, which takes about 5 minutes; the rest goes by email.
2. You get a temporary link within 3 working days, so you can click through every page and ask for changes by email.
3. After your approval, you pay the first month and we publish it on your domain.

Once the site is live, hosting, SSL and daily backups are on our side, and text and photo updates by email come with the plan.

Rules to know before your Worrall website goes live

Putting your business online does not change the rules, but a few rules are worth checking:

• 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
• 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
