Three steps to a website for your Evercreech business

Since 2008, Aria has been setting up websites, domains and business email for small companies. Wherever in the South West you are, the price is the same: £69 a month, and we keep in touch by email.

1. Complete the 5-minute sign-up and email us whatever material you already have.
2. Within 3 working days, the whole site is on a temporary link, with your colours and logo.
3. Once you say it is ready, you pay the first month and the website goes live on your domain.

After launch, you keep asking for changes by email: a new photo, an updated price, a new service. They are part of the monthly fee.

Before you publish: rules that apply in England

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
• 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 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
