Corfu welcomed over 1.4 million visitors last summer. The vast majority booked online before they ever stepped foot on the island, and they were searching in English, German, French, Italian, sometimes Cyrillic.
If your website is Greek-only, you are invisible to that traffic the moment they leave the airport WiFi.
What bilingual actually costs
Done badly, a second language is a maintenance nightmare. Done right (one source of truth per piece of content, indexed under hreflang, served from the same domain), it costs you nothing per booking and earns you everything.
Every site we ship for Corfu businesses is EN + GR from day one. Not "we will add Greek later." Not "the menu PDF is in Greek." The entire site, indexed correctly by Google, switchable by the visitor.
The SEO side nobody tells you about
Google now treats hreflang as a *trust signal*. Tourism sites with proper bilingual implementation rank higher for both languages than monolingual sites, even ones with more backlinks.
That is the unfair advantage local Corfu businesses get by going bilingual: not just access to a wider audience, but a structural ranking lift over competitors who didn't bother.
What we do differently
- One CMS entry per piece of content, with
enandgrkeys side by side. hreflangset per route so Google understands the alternates.- Language toggle that preserves the user's choice across visits.
- No third-party widgets. Fast, SEO-friendly, accessible by default.
