Erasmate and Erasmus are climbing the ladder!

Mates,

On this very first day of July, we would like to share some great news with you!

Over the last time we have been working on Search Engine Optimization to climb the Google ladder. As you probably recognize of your own search behaviour, you’ll barely check second search result pages. We are happy to inform you about the fact that all hard working helped Erasmate showing up at the fourth position once people search for Erasmus Housing.

Not only internally it is going well for Erasmate, also externally interesting things are happening. Some days ago, the EU Commission announced that more EU students than ever travelled abroad for studies and company placements. With a total of 198.600 exchange students in academic year 2008/2009 we can celebrate an 8.7% increase compared to the year before. For more detailed information we would like to recommend you to read this article .

Enjoy the great day!
