Three steps to a website for your Chiseldon business

Aria has built websites for small companies since 2008, with every step handled online. From Chiseldon, the price is the same: £69 a month, and email is how we talk.

1. Sign up online in roughly 5 minutes, then email us your logo and a few photos.
2. Within 3 working days, the whole site is on a temporary link, with your colours and logo.
3. Once you approve it, the first monthly fee is issued and the website goes live on your domain, together with your business email.

Once the site is live, the technical side stays with us, and text and photo updates by email come with the plan.

England rules for a business with a website

Putting your business online does not change the rules, 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
