Invisible in Spanish
Your site is English-only, so half the people within walking distance never find you. They are searching, just not in your language.
Costa Blanca · since 2006
Your business speaks English.
Half your customers don't.
Most expat-run businesses on the Costa Blanca have a website in English only — and stay invisible to the Spanish market next door. We build sites that work in both languages, and get found in both.

We answer in English, by message. Usually the same day.
Solercom is a design and marketing agency based in Santa Pola, Alicante, working since 2006. We build websites and handle SEO, local SEO and AI search optimisation for businesses on the Costa Blanca, in Spanish and in English. Fixed written quotes, no lock-in contracts, and an office you can walk into.
What we usually find
Three things, nearly every time.
A Google listing nobody set up
Wrong category, wrong opening hours, no photos, or three duplicate listings fighting each other. It is the cheapest thing to fix and the most often ignored.
The person who built it went home
No passwords, no files, no idea who owns the domain. We hear this one every month.
What we do
Four things, and they work together.
A website nobody finds is a brochure. Ranking without a site that converts is traffic you paid for and lost. These are sold separately and they are worth more together.
Websites
Built here, properly bilingual when you need it: real translated content with hreflang, not a translate widget Google ignores. Fast, and yours — the domain goes in your name.
SEO
Ranking for what people actually type, in both languages. Your Spanish customers search «bar Santa Pola», not «bar in Santa Pola», and those are two different jobs.
Local SEO
The Google map block — the three results above everything else. For a bar, a shop or a clinic, that is where walk-in business comes from.
AI search
Being the business ChatGPT or Gemini names when a tourist asks where to eat in Santa Pola. Almost nobody here works on this yet.
Why someone local
We are twenty minutes away,
and we have been for 20 years.
- An office you can walk into. Same street in Santa Pola since 2006. Not a freelancer abroad you will never meet.
- We handle the Spanish side. Hosting, domains, invoicing and the paperwork that comes with running a business here.
- We publish our prices. They are on this page. No «contact us for a quote» and no surprises halfway through.
- We are still here next year. Which is more than can be said for whoever built most of the sites we get asked to rescue.
Prices
What it costs, before you ask.
| Service | Price | |
|---|---|---|
| Website | €900 | from — fixed written quote before we start |
| Google listing set-up | €300 | one-off |
| Local SEO | €300 | per month, cancel any time |
| SEO | €450 | per month, cancel any time |
Prices exclude VAT. Monthly services can be cancelled any time — there is no minimum term on anything we do.
Before you write
The questions we actually get.
- Do you speak English?
- We work in English by WhatsApp and email, which is why there is no phone number on this page. Written English, not spoken — we would rather be straight with you than have an awkward call. Everything gets answered the same day.
- Do I really need my website in Spanish too?
- If your customers are only tourists and other expats, no. If you want the Spanish families who live here all year, yes. Most businesses on the Costa Blanca want both and only have one, and that is usually the quickest win available.
- I already have a website. Can you fix it instead of rebuilding?
- Often, yes, and we will tell you honestly which it is. If the site is recent and the structure is sound we work on it. If every fix costs more than starting again, we say so — even though rebuilding is the bigger invoice.
- Who owns the domain and the website?
- You do. The domain goes in your name and you get the files, the passwords and the documentation. If you ever leave, you leave with everything. We have never held anyone’s website hostage.
- Am I tied into a contract?
- No. Monthly services are month to month and you can stop whenever you like. What we have built on your site stays on your site — nothing switches off when you stop paying.
- How long does a website take?
- Three to four weeks for a small site, six to eight for a bigger one, counting from when we have your text and photos. The schedule is almost never set by the development — it is set by how long the content takes.
- Where are you?
- Avenida Vicente Blasco Ibáñez 19, Santa Pola, twenty minutes from Alicante. Same street since 2006. You are welcome to come in — most of our clients are within half an hour of the office.
