Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Putting your business online brings no special licence, but these points are worth checking:

  • 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

General information, not legal advice. Each link goes to the official page, where the details for your situation are.

Web design in Arlington: frequent questions

Is a website worth it in a place of 274 people?

Yes. Customers from across Cotswold search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.

How long until my website is ready?

Within 3 working days of receiving your material, the website is ready on a temporary link. It goes live on your domain once you approve it and the first monthly fee is paid.

Can I sell online from Arlington?

Yes, an online shop costs the same £69 a month as a regular website: a catalogue of your products, basket and online payment.

Who writes the text and picks the photos?

Real photos taken with a good phone often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.

Am I tied in for a year?

No lock-in. The plan is month to month at £69, with nothing to pay before you approve the website.

Will the website work on phones?

Yes. The layout adapts to phones, tablets and computers, and every page keeps a way to reach you and your details.

Do I pay anything to get started?

No. No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website. No lock-in contract. You can stop the service whenever you need to.
