From sign-up to launch, for Stoneyhills businesses

We are a web design team that has been building small business websites since 2008. From Stoneyhills, the plan is identical: one monthly fee of £69, and we keep in touch by email.

1. Complete the 5-minute sign-up and send your logo, photos and service list by email.
2. No more than 3 working days later, a temporary link shows you the full website, with your colours and logo.
3. Approve the site and pay the first month: only then does it go 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.

What England asks of a business online

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

• 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

Details vary by business, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.
