During the campaign period, Eden achieved the following highlights:

  • The MagicalCredit.ca website has ranked organically for over 5,700 relevant keyword variations, with a variety of highly competitive search terms ranking organically on the first page of Google.
  • Overall traffic to the site increased 180%.
  • Direct traffic to the website increased 281%.
  • Applications filled out, as a result of SEO, and SEM initiatives more than doubled.
