What England asks of a business online
Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in England:
- A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
- 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
This is general information, not legal advice; confirm the details with the agency behind each item or with a professional adviser.
Before you sign up: common questions
Tangmere is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes. Customers from across Chichester 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 about my domain name?
If you already own one, we connect it to the new website and your email. If not, say so in the sign-up form and we will help you pick one, by email.
Can I update prices after the site is live?
Our team does it for you: email what needs changing and we take care of it, along with hosting, SSL and backups.
My customers come from Westhampnett and Barnham, Arun as well. Can I say so?
Of course. A section on the site can name Westhampnett, Barnham, Arun, Chichester and any other place you work in; just send us the list by email.
