Few Spaniards know that the name ’Costa Blanca ’ is in fact a truly English creation.

Within the next few years villages such as Torrevieja became popular destinations. Many of those tourists loved Torrevieja so much that they decided to settle there, and nowadays less than 50% of the population are natural-born Spaniards.

The first three positions are for eurodipity.eu, eurodipity.com and... this blog!! I can hardly belive it, I don’t even have incoming links :-S I suppose the main reason is that I’ve written in English and the contest conditions clearly state that English will be the language used to search when determining who the winners are. Therefore I will use this SEO contest both to practice my SEO abilities and my English.
