Wiltshire businesses and what their websites need

- Farms and agricultural businesses, 1,945 in Wiltshire: the site should show a form for wholesale enquiries and where to buy their products.
- Car dealers and motor trade businesses, 825 in Wiltshire: the site should show directions and opening hours and current stock with photos.
- Professional firms such as accountants, solicitors and engineers, 710 in Wiltshire: the site should show the team with qualifications and the services and who they are for.

What England asks of a business online
Some homework for Warminster businesses before the website goes live:
- 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 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
- Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine. GOV.UK: unfair commercial practices
