Heversham: the place behind the numbers

An older population reads websites differently: larger text, clear contact details and no hunting for opening hours. In Heversham, where 36.1% of residents are 65 or over, a calm, readable site earns trust faster than a flashy one.

The legal basics for Heversham businesses online

A website does not need a special licence, but the business behind it follows the usual rules. A few that come up often:

  • A limited company must include its name on all company documents, publicity and letters, and on business letters, order forms and websites it must also show its registered number, its registered office address and where it is registered. GOV.UK: company names on websites
  • 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

Heversham is small. Do I really need a website?

Your market is bigger than Heversham. People across Westmorland and Furness look up services online, and a clear website brings them to you.

How many email accounts do I get?

Email on your own domain comes with the plan, such as info@yourbusiness: unlimited accounts, 5 GB of storage in total, webmail and spam filtering.
