You can do it yourself - not a huge amount cheaper but so much more interesting!

I used http://www.start.biz/home.htm a few years ago to set a limited company. Very simple and a quick process and not particularly expensive. All the certificates and company stamp provided.

I pay them a small annual fee for insurance against others trading as my company name.

Do you really want a limited company? It not all good.

Limited but dormant - just protects your name.

my accountant set mine up, cost me £50 which he then wrote off against my tax. Annual fee of £15 for continual trading.
