Based in Puerto del Carmen the multi lingual surgery caters to English, German, and of course Spanish speakers. Dr Medina spent a number of years working with the NHS so has the knowledge necessary to undertand the needs of his British clients.</p>
<p>Over time, all websites tend to age in technology and design and Dr Medina approached Gandy-Draper to refresh his online image and improve the SEO in line with the lastest practices.</p>

<p>At the time Ben and Diane had a problem their previous web designers (not based on the island) and had lost all of the previous site. The brief was to obtain control of the domain name and to create a new site that retained most of the look and feel of the old site whilst also adding to it.</p>
<p>Looking very like the original the new site also includes a Flash banner of photographs (mostly from Gandy-Draper&#8217;s own stock) to add life to the home page.</p>

<p>The original site had been in existence for some time. It looked dated and was in need of modernising to bring it in line with the professional standing of the company in their industry. Additionally SEO was an important factor in the project as the site figure poorly in Google, largely as the original had been built in frames.</p>
<p>The resulting site is clean, clear and SEO friendly. Gandy-Draper will be undertaking further work on the content and news sections in the future,  communicating with the UK based clients via phone, email and face to face meetings.</p>

<p>The client wanted an easy to update site that allowed for future growth and making te site SEO friendly was a major consideration. In addition they wanted to use Google maps to highlight the regions they covered with different levels of services to landlords and tenants, as well as needing the images to accompany the content sourcing.</p>
<p>Initially concerned how it might work dealing with web designers in Lanzarote, after a couple of telephone calls the client was suitably reassured and chose to go ahead. The project was successfully managed using email and Skype &#8211; and the client is very happy with the results.</p>
