Three steps to a website for your Marham business

Our team has been designing websites for small businesses since 2008. For a business in Marham, that means the same £69 plan as anywhere else in the United Kingdom, with your material and your questions going by email.

1. Answer the short sign-up form, which takes about 5 minutes; logo and photos follow by email.
2. Within 3 working days, the whole site is on a temporary link, built on a proven template with your brand.
3. When you are happy with it, you approve, the first £69 fee is issued, and the site is published 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 brings no special licence, but these points often come up:

• 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
• 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
