Before you publish: rules that apply in Wales
Some homework for Blaenannerch businesses before the website goes live:
- 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

Answers for Wales business owners
Blaenannerch is small. Do I really need a website?
Yes. Customers from across Ceredigion search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.
Do I need professional photos?
A logo, some photos of your work or premises and a short description of what you offer, all by email. We build the pages and you approve every one.
Can the website be an online shop?
Yes. The plan can be an online shop with a catalogue, a basket and online payment, for the same £69 a month.
Can I update prices after the site is live?
Email us the change (new prices, photos or services) and the team updates the site. Content changes are part of the monthly fee.
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.
Is there a minimum contract?
You can stop the service whenever you need to; there is no setup fee and no long-term commitment.
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.
