It would not be normal to spend more than 6 months in a one year period in the UK. So if you went to the UK for 6 months wait 6 months before applying again

6 month stay in a 12 month period is no longer a policy anymore.

also see VAT1.5 Frequency and duration of visits

It would depend on the evidence as to the 'visitor's' intentions. I.e. if you arrive with your company house business documents sticking out of your hand luggage as one 'visitor' did, it's unlikely that the ECO would think that you intended to 'visit'.
