1. Start with the online sign-up (about 5 minutes) and tell us what the business does.
2. We put the site together with your logo, colours and photos, and send you a temporary link within 3 working days.
3. Once you say it is ready, the first monthly fee is issued and the website goes live on your domain.

New prices, new photos, a new service page: email it in and our team updates the site, included in the fee.

England rules for a business with a website

Some homework for Great Ouseburn businesses before the website goes live:

• A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
• You must not send marketing emails or texts to individuals without specific consent; there is a limited exception for your own previous customers, often called the soft opt-in. ICO: email marketing
• 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
