My online resources

Nearly all UK businesses (99%+) start as sole traders or as limited companies.

So if you’re writing about UK businesses you will be looking for resources about these two most common business entities.  I cover both:

“Super limited company FAQ” : (Does what it says on the tin)

Due to their complexity, limited companies throw up more questions than sole traders. This explainer covers definitions, registration, different types of limited company, structure and transaction issues and tax considerations. 

Ultimate guide to setting up a limited company – This is an advanced guide and covers more nuanced issues such as the steps needed to ensure you don’t infringe an existing company’s intellectual property rights. (This is referenced on .GOV websites without really telling users how to check!)

Ultimate guide to registering as a sole trader. A more depth guide guide to sole trader registration designed to be more accessible and fill in the obvious gaps on the .GOV version.

Proprietary data and research

I have the entire Companies House incorporation database at my disposal as well as our own inhouse research such as this referenced in the Telegraph.

I can be quicker and more flexible than FOI requests to Companies House.
