No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website.
Who lives and works in Aintree
An older population reads websites differently: larger text, clear contact details and no hunting for opening hours. In Aintree, where 26.7% of residents are 65 or over, a calm, readable site earns trust faster than a flashy one.
Of the 9,445 business sites in the Sefton local authority area (UK Business Counts 2026), 11.0% are run by sole proprietors. Small firms are the norm here, and the ones that are easy to find online get the call.

Before you publish: rules that apply in England
Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in England:
- 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
- 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. GOV.UK: unfair commercial practices

Three steps to a website for your Aintree business
We are a web design team that has been building small business websites since 2008. Wherever in the North West you are, the plan is identical: one monthly fee of £69, and email is how we talk.
