What working with Aria looks like

Aria has been building business websites and online shops since 2008, and every project runs online. 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. You get a temporary link within 3 working days, so you can click through every page and ask for changes by email.
3. When you are happy with it, you approve, the first £69 fee is issued, and the site is published on your domain.

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

Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Putting your business online does not change the rules, but a few rules often come up:

• 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
• 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
