Help for entrepreneurs
The information pages 'Start and Run a Business' opened in November 2011, and quickly attracted heavy traffic. Last year, users clicked on these pages as many as 3.9 million times.
The pages provide information and support for people who plan to start a business, and most of the traffic concerns topics relating to the start-up phase. Here, new business owners can find out how to prepare for start-up, choose which form of incorporation to go for and register the enterprise. Many also want information about the rest of the process as well, however, and find topics relating to the actual running of a business.
