The SEO challenge

One of the hardest aspects of a complete redesign is maintaining search engine ranking and we are happy to say that with careful planning and attention we have maintained and indeed improved our search engine presence with our new website for a broad range of relevant and important search terms. This has also resulted in increased visitor numbers in the short time the new VisitAruba.com has been live.

Hard work pays off!

Since our soft launch to date we have seen a 22% increase in visitors over the same period in 2017. In the first 11 months of 2018 we have exceeded the traffic of 2017 in total, having already exceeded 1.3 million visits since the beginning of 2018.

This is just the first phase of the new VisitAruba.com, there is lots more to come!

We will keep you posted on new features as they become available.
