Lanzarote Breaks - an online success story
Launched in March 2003, Lanzarote Breaks went from Internet startup to online success story within one year of its launch - by becoming the established source of self-catering holidays in Lanzarote.
The site wins acclaim by bringing independent holiday information to the right people at the right time, thereby delivering a proven source of new sales to advertisers. Over 120,000 people use the website each year and visitor numbers continue to increase, as does the incredible portfolio of Lanzarote property on offer to holidaymakers.
The site is owned and operated by online advertising agency The Breaks Company, a consultancy-turned-marketing firm run by Richard and Lisa Speigal. "Before Lanzarote Breaks, the online information for this unique island was amateurish at best." says Richard. "By using quality technology and a professional approach, Lanzarote Breaks has surpassed all the competition to bring customers the online service they want."
