How Aria builds your Clwt-y-bont website

Aria has been building business websites and online shops since 2008, and every project runs online. For a business in Clwt-y-bont, that means the same £69 plan as anywhere else in the United Kingdom, with your material and your questions going by email.

1. Start with the online sign-up (about 5 minutes) and tell us what the business does.
2. Within 3 working days, a temporary link shows you the full website, with your colours and logo.
3. Approve the site and pay the first month: only then does it go live on your domain.

After launch, you keep asking for changes by email: a new photo, an updated price, a new service. They are part of the monthly fee.

Before you publish: rules that apply in Wales

Some homework for Clwt-y-bont businesses before the website goes live:

• A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
• Organisations, including sole traders, that use personal information need to pay a data protection fee to the ICO, although many can rely on an exemption; the tier 1 fee is £52. ICO: data protection fee
• 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
