Without knowing your specific situation, I’d recommend considering hiring a WordPress designer if you don’t need a lot of custom functionality. Just don’t get roped into paying for a bunch of monthly services. If you do however need a website or webapp built with some custom functionality or something very specific then it would be worthwhile to get an actual web developer.
I only mention it because stretching your seed funding as far as it can possibly go (within reason) will pay dividends over the life of a business. You can always build a site from scratch later on as you grow and become established.
Hey, just letting you know that the laws around this vary significantly from country to country, state to state, and so on.
IANAL. However, I see you’re aware that this is illegal in the EU due to the GDPR. However, what you’re also doing is illegal in various places in the USA as well, notably, California. It’s also illegal in Canada despite your business being registered inside or outside of Canada. In fact it’s illegal in so many places that you’ve essentially set yourself up for a variety of potential (probable) lawsuits. Combined with some of the new BOI laws that are coming into force there’s a remarkably high chance that you’re going to be personally identified and able to be held personally liable given that the corporate veil can be pierced in situations where the law is fragrantly broken by an individual.
