260% Organic Traffic Boost in 6 MonthsHow We Achieved Organic Growth for a Crypto Exchange

With the crypto industry becoming increasingly competitive, gaining visibility isn’t just an advantage, it’s a necessity. EXMO, a global crypto exchange serving users across 150+ countries, faced a major challenge: despite offering, multiple payment options, and over 50 supported cryptocurrencies, organic traffic was not growing at the pace needed to scale.

Relying heavily on paid ads, EXMO struggled to attract and retain organic users in a cost-effective way. The market was flooded with competing platforms, making it difficult to rank for high-value keywords and establish long-term credibility. They needed a robust SEO strategy to cut through the noise, increase organic visibility, and drive sustainable growth.

This case study reveals how we helped EXMO boost its organic traffic by 260% in just six months, transforming its digital presence and expanding its reach to crypto traders worldwide.
