Two weeks ago, Royal LePage shared data on the number of American visitors to royallepage.ca in recent months and in the run-up to the presidential election.
In particular, we learned that visits from Americans had more than doubled during the week of June 16, recording an increase of 104% from one week to the next. The following week, in the wake of the first debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, weekly traffic increased once again by 4%, compared to the previous week.
“Since then, the number of American visitors has continued to increase,” said Royal LePage, which continued to closely monitor this trend.
Indeed, the day after the election of Donald Trump, sessions originating in the United States on royallepage.ca increased by 52% in one day on Wednesday, November 6.
“This is the highest number of U.S. users on the website since the start of the year, and one of several spikes in web traffic from U.S. visitors recorded since the start of the House race- White this summer,” said the real estate company.
Traffic on the website during the week of the election (from November 4 to 10) increased by 70% compared to the previous year.
