Brits in Crete

Cheap flights to Crete is the choice for most, although it is getting more expensive with the rising cost of jet fuel and reduced competition among the airlines. You arrive at either Chania, Heraklion or Sitia International Airports. But, when you need to relocate to Greece to set up your new island home, then it is both practical and popular to drive from UK to Crete. You can load up your car with personal belongings, the family and pets and after three days motoring along the auto routes of France, Italy, Switzerland and Greece you are in the sunshine of Crete for an extended stay or to start a new life.

Our locally resourced information helps you to know the best way to achieve results and get things done when you need to work in Greece, or typically for retirement living. Remember, the modis operandi - The Cretan Way is very different compared to the British Isles. Learn the Cretan way to handle the bureaucracy to avoid any Catch-22 situation that may open a can of worms at the tax office, or a hiccup over "IKA" social security payments, perhaps even confusion on pension rights, or an unexplained difficulty in a new car purchase or insurance cover. We offer many tips.

Direct sales is not simply what display advertising is all about on the Internet.

It is so much more.

For the smaller entrepreneur it is important to understand that placing an advertisement on BritsinCrete.Net (itself an established brand) is as much about awareness and product re-inforcement as it is for a sale.

Visitors get used to seeing ads on our website. I call it the "comfort factor". How many times do you go on the Internet to your favourite sites, and remember an ad when you come to need a product or service that ad represents! That is what I mean by "the Comfort Factor".

Every day we see so many informational messages. And yet when we come to want a particular product or service we try to recall where it can be found. Was it in a newspaper, a magazine or a website etc. To recall it was on Brits in Crete is proof the ad worked for the client!
