Three steps to a website for your Ladbroke business

Our team has been designing websites for small businesses since 2008. 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. Sign up online in roughly 5 minutes, then email us your logo and a few photos.
2. No more than 3 working days later, the whole site is on a temporary link, built on a proven template with your brand.
3. Once you approve it, the first monthly fee is issued and the website goes live on your domain, together with your business email.

After it goes live, hosting, SSL and daily backups are on our side, and the changes you email in are included.

Running a business website from Ladbroke: the rules

Some homework for Ladbroke 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 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
