Did you know there are some new legal rules about online advertising standards that apply to your UK websites, social media campaigns, video marketing and more?

Yep, once again, more red tape to comply with I’m afraid.

The New Legal Rules

The new rules were first announced in September 2010, to give people six months to change the way they market online. And the deadline for complying with the updated rules was 1st March 2011.

Unfortunately, a lot of people just don’t know about these new rules and are putting themselves at risk of an investigation by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA).

How To Get Legal

I’ve found a great guide which simplifies the new guidelines (the originals are over 100 pages long!).

It’s called; The CAP Code Guide.

The CAP Code Guide contains tools, checklists and summaries of key facts to make it really easy for you to audit your own online business communications.

It’s a quick and easy way to comply with the new rules.

Here’s the thing: If you advertise your business, services or products online – in any way shape or form by websites, social media campaigns, video marketing – then these rules apply to YOU.
