Uttlesford businesses and what their websites need

• Photographers, designers and creative studios (200 sites): contact details and a portfolio.
• Farms and agricultural businesses (365 sites): seasonal opening times and what they grow or raise.
• Cleaning, landscaping and building services (190 sites): a quote form and insurance details.
• Trades such as electricians, plumbers and roofers (620 sites): emergency contact details and hours and before-and-after photos.
• Professional firms such as accountants, solicitors and engineers (430 sites): office address and hours and the team with qualifications.

How Aria builds your Stebbing website

Aria has been building business websites and online shops since 2008, and every project runs 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. Start with the online sign-up (about 5 minutes) and tell us what the business does.
2. Our team builds the pages with your brand on a tested template and send a temporary link within 3 working days.
3. After your approval, you pay the first month and we publish it 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

Some homework for Stebbing businesses before the website goes live:

• 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
• 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
