Paperwork and rules for Wales businesses online
Putting your business online does not change the rules, but these points often come up:
- A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
- You cannot set non-essential cookies on your website before the visitor has consented to them, and that consent must be actively and clearly given. ICO: cookies
- 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
Every business is different, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.
Answers for Wales business owners

As many addresses on your domain as you need, sharing 5 GB in total, with webmail and spam filtering.
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.
Does the site look right on a mobile?
Yes. The layout adapts to phones, tablets and computers, and every page keeps the contact form and your details.

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.
