Doing business in Semington

Running a business website from Semington: the rules
Some homework for Semington businesses before the website goes live:
- 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 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
General information, not legal advice. Each link goes to the official page, where the details for your situation are.
Answers for South West business owners
Is a website worth it in a place of 757 people?
Yes. Customers from across Wiltshire search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.
What do I need to send?
Phone photos of your real work often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.
Will customers in Berryfield and Bowerhill see that I serve them?
Yes. Email us the towns you serve (for example Berryfield, Bowerhill and Holt, Wiltshire) and they go on a service area page.
Do we need to meet?
No meetings needed: support@ariaserv.com is where the conversation happens, and you see the full website on a temporary link before approving it.
I already own a domain. Can I keep it?
If you already own one, we connect it to the new website and your email. If not, tell us in the sign-up and we will help you pick one, by email.
Is there a minimum contract?
No lock-in. The plan is month to month at £69, with nothing to pay before you approve the website.
Do I pay anything to get started?
No. No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website. No lock-in contract. You can stop the service whenever you need to.
