No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website.

The East Suffolk local authority area had 11,165 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 (765): a form for wholesale enquiries and what they grow or raise.

What England asks of a business online
A website does not need a special licence, but the business behind it follows the usual rules. A few that come up often:
- 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
- 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
