Brand New Lanzarote Business and Residents Association Website Launched

We are very proud to announce the launch of our brand new website which has been in development for several months. Late last year we made the decision to retire our old website as after many years of faithful service it definitely deserved a break. 

While our new site has been in development we launched this blog back in November. This is where we have been posting all our news articles and then sharing them to our Twitter, Facebook and Google Plus profiles. It is time to wish this blog a fond farewell though, as our blog posts are now integrated directly into the new site which we hope you'll agree works really well!



As the old website was starting to look very dated, we made the decision of starting again from scratch in order to make the new website really look totally different. We didn't want to take a half measure and just tweak the old site, it was time for a totally fresh and modern site. Since our last website was launched the Internet has changed immeasurably, and web users expect websites that reflect the speed and ease that they are now used to. 

A big part of this change has occurred due to mobile Internet, as now people can browse sites from almost anywhere they go on their mobile phone. Websites need to be built with mobile users in mind as this is where an increasing amount of web traffic comes from. 


Our new website is smooth, simple to navigate and designed to showcase the best of Lanzarote via the different sections that have been included. Various tabs have been included at the top of the website for simple access to different sections that we feel are most important to our users. 

We have our blog which will be updated to include all of the posts from this blog and all new posts:



There is a tab in which you can access all of the videos we have added to our YouTube channel: 


The about section gives all the information you need about the LBRA such as our history, aims and values:



From the directory tab you will find links to all of the great businesses that are members of the LBRA:


 Last but not least on the far top right hand corner there is a tab that will take you to a page with all the information you need for joining the LBRA:


Our new site is designed with social media in mind with our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram feeds directly integrated into the website. There are also links to our social media channels along the bottom of the page and the ability to share our blog posts and other sections of the site to any social media channel of your choice. Along the bottom of the site you will also find links to job listings, as we aim to be useful as well as informative.

We really hope that you like the new site as much as we do, and if you like it please let us know via our social media channels as we would love to here what you think! Our new site can be found here: http://lanzarotebusinessassociation.com/

The site was designed by Ashley Pearson, who is a IT Executive and Google Rising Star with many years experience of web design. You can find out more about Ashley via his LinkedIn profile including information on how to contact him if you would like a website developed.
