How Aria builds your Trawsfynydd website

We have built websites since 2008, with every step handled online. It all runs online, so a Trawsfynydd business pays the same £69 a month as anyone else in the United Kingdom.

1. Answer the short sign-up form, which takes about 5 minutes; logo and photos follow by email.
2. Within 3 working days, a temporary link shows you the full website, with your colours and logo.
3. When you are happy with it, you approve, the first £69 fee is issued, and the site is published 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 Wales

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

• 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
• Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine.
