    Very happy with HostingUK (.) Net

    I totally agree with you regarding cPanel. While it's powerful and flexible, the won't-use-it decider for me was its handling of domains - whereby the default enables one domain to be accessible through an entirely unrelated one.

    Want to help my sister but don't have a scooby as to how

    Good. Somebody else gets the point, too.

    Want to help my sister but don't have a scooby as to how

    I don't agree. There's a maximum amount of hours she can work, and that can be undertaken from the start - making stuff which'll sell later. The greater constraining factor is sales rather than time. And the growth comes with increased sales rather than working more hours.

    I don't agree with churn. They can be premium quality and priced accordingly.

    Want to help my sister but don't have a scooby as to how

    This'll seem like I'm being arrogant and arguing with others here, but I'm not... Although the advice of 'make the business plan a priority before you part with any money building a website' and 'not really scalable' are well-intentioned and valid... I suggest they're relatively minor...

    Resolving conflicting interests

    C and you could act to oust B as director, subject to the aforementioned articles/agreement etcetera, and thus slow the financial decline.

    Resolving conflicting interests

    If they're unwilling/unrealistic there's little you can do unless you have appropriate articles/shareholder/other agreements.

    There's also Folksy. The point is to 'get on an appropriate platform' (Etsy/Folksy). Instagram and Facebook will be of limited use - though likely worthwhile.

    Help

    What would I do? Speak with my lawyer, and quick. In the circumstances you describe, it's easy and likely to do something inappropriate which'll quickly get complex and expensive.

    Right to cancel online order?

    If you bought as a consumer (rather than a business) you've an initial 14 day cooling off period. But you've had that so it's gone. Auto-renew gets more complex, and I don't have a clear answer. If a US business their agreement should comply with UK law - but probably unlikely. If it doesn't...

    Share Capital vs Director's Loan

    Thanks. You can issue more shares later, but 100 ought to be sufficient. Whether you've put in £1 or £10k is unlikely to make much difference with savvy investors or loan source... far more important is you, the concept/product/service, trading results. Balance sheets are over-rated. And, it...

    Share Capital vs Director's Loan

    If the company is to be 'just you', then do a single £1 share and put in the £10k as a director loan.

    Sole trader to Ltd

    A relevant consideration here is the amount and ratio of your labour charges to parts cost, and also between private clients and businesses which are themselves vat-registered. If you're not vat registered your labour charges can be significantly lower because you're not having to add extra for...

    Sole trader to Ltd

    Constructively... for me, part of my reasoning for operating through companies has been more than simply 'for financial advantage, or liability protection' - it's a mindset-thing... one that I can't explain. It's not a case of being better or worse than sole trader/partnership/etcetera - simply...
