9.4% of adults in Llandarcy list an apprenticeship as their highest qualification, above the Wales share of 5.6%. That says a lot about what a website for a Llandarcy business should show first. Aria builds the whole site for £69 a month, with your domain, business email and hosting, and you pay only once you have approved it.

No setup fee: you only pay the £69 monthly fee once you have approved your website.

Registration and privacy basics for Llandarcy

Some homework for Llandarcy 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
  • 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
