What happens once you sign up

Since 2008, Aria has been setting up websites, domains and business email for small companies. 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. Complete the 5-minute sign-up and email us whatever material you already have.
2. No more than 3 working days later, a temporary link shows you the full website, built on a proven template with your brand.
3. After your approval, you pay the first month and the website goes live 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.

Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but a few rules are worth checking:

• Organisations, including sole traders, that use personal information need to pay a data protection fee to the ICO, although many can rely on an exemption; the tier 1 fee is £52. ICO: data protection fee
• 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
