Paperwork and rules for Wales businesses online
Some homework for Buckley 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
- 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
- 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

Before you sign up: common questions

Email on your own domain comes with the plan, such as info@yourbusiness: unlimited accounts, 5 GB of storage in total, webmail and spam filtering.
How do we work together if I am in Buckley?
It all happens by email: you send your material and any changes, and you review the website on a temporary link before anything is published.
When does the site go live?
Within 3 working days of receiving your material, the website is ready on a temporary link. It goes live on your domain after you approve it and the first monthly fee is paid.
What is the website built on?
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.
What do I need to send?
Phone photos of your real work often work better than stock images. Email them with your logo and a list of services.
What about my domain name?
If you already own one, we connect it to the new website and your email. If not, tell us in the sign-up and we will help you pick one, by email.
Do I pay anything to get started?
