What every Corfu business website needs

Corfu is a small island with a global audience. The couple planning a wedding in Kalami, the family booking a villa in Kassiopi and the local looking for a restaurant in town all start in the same place: a search on their phone. Here is what your website needs to win that moment.

1. Speed, on a phone, on a beach

Most visitors arrive on mobile, often on patchy holiday data. Every extra second of loading loses people. A fast site uses lightweight code, properly sized images, and a hosting network close to your visitors, whether they are in Corfu, London or Milan.

2. Two languages, set up properly

Your guests search in English, Italian or German; your local customers search in Greek. A bilingual site only works for Google when each language has its own page, linked with hreflang tags, not a translate button. Start with Greek and English and add more when the bookings justify it.

3. Local SEO that says “Corfu”

Google needs to understand what you do and where. That means:

• page titles and headings that use the words people search, such as “villa in Kassiopi” or “βιντεογράφος γάμου Κέρκυρα”;
• your name, address and phone number written identically everywhere;
• structured data (schema) that describes your business, services and opening hours;
• a claimed and complete Google Business Profile with real photos and reviews.

4. Real images and video

People book with their eyes. Stock photos of “a beach” don’t sell a specific place, your rooms, your view, your food and your team do. A short film of your property often says more than a page of text.

5. A contact form that respects privacy

A clear form that goes straight to your inbox, with spam protection, a privacy policy and a cookie banner where “reject” is as easy as “accept”. In Greece and the EU this isn’t optional, and handled well, it builds trust.

6. Hosting without a monthly bill

Many small business sites don’t need expensive hosting. A well-built static site can run on Cloudflare’s global network on the free plan, with only the domain name to renew each year.

The short version

Fast, bilingual, local, visual, private and affordable. If your current site misses two or more of these, it’s probably costing you bookings.
