Rules to know before your Wretton website goes live

Some homework for Wretton businesses before the website goes live:

  • 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

Questions about a website for your Wretton business

Wretton is small. Do I really need a website?

Your market is bigger than Wretton. People across King’s Lynn and West Norfolk look up services online, and a clear website brings them to you.

My customers come from Stoke Ferry and Methwold as well. Can I say so?

Of course. A section on the site can name Stoke Ferry, Methwold, Southery and any other place you work in; email us the list and we add it.

Do I need professional photos?

Phone photos of your real work often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.

Which platform do you use?

On the Aria Platform, which is built on WordPress and set up by our team, so you get a professional site without dealing with the technical side.

Do we need to meet?

It all happens by email: you send your material and any changes, and you check the whole site on a temporary link before anything is published.

Will the website work on phones?

Yes, it is built to work on phones first, with buttons that are easy to tap and pages that load quickly.

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.
