Good advice on for services vs services, can I ask why you'd recommend ltd?
Very new to this, but at this moment in time going lts looks like it'll give me some decent overheads due to the accounting.
As salary etc needs to be paid I'll need a PAYE system for example, a separate business account too.
That said, if I get myself established I think I'd go that way but at the moment I do want to be paying too much out until I've got some successful work to point to and built my network a bit.
