Wales rules for a business with a website
Before launch, it helps to have the basics in order. These apply to many small businesses in Wales:
- 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
- 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
- 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 Llantrisant business
Is a website worth it in a place of 4,196 people?
Yes. Customers from across Rhondda Cynon Taf search before they travel, and a website is how they find you. It also answers the basics (hours, prices, location) without a phone call.
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.
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.
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.
How do I keep in touch with the team?
Everything happens by email: you send material and change requests, and you review the website on a temporary link before anything is published.
I already own a domain. Can I keep it?
If you have one, keep it: we point it to the website. If not, say so in the sign-up and we sort out the options with you by email.
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.
