This is our story...
Mouseclicks was founded in 1995, at a time when few companies understood the importance of search engine optimization (SEO) and online marketing. The Web was so young, in fact, that banner ads didn't exist, Microsoft had not yet purchased Internet Explorer, and there were only a handful of search engines in the world—compared to the thousands that exist today.
Through the early years, Mouseclicks steadily built its reputation as a web agency that could drive targeted traffic to its clients' websites. By the late 1990's, we had launched a number of websites and online marketing campaigns for companies across New England, including one of the first NASCAR websites for New Hampshire International Speedway.
It was 1998, however, that would prove to be the turning point for our company. In March of that year, we decided to take a booth at the IDG Internet Commerce Expo in Boston and compete for one of their coveted industry awards. At the show's awards ceremony, a panel of industry experts presented Mouseclicks with a "Best of Class" award for our search engine optimization solutions. This led to our first big break—a large contract with Hewlett-Packard (HP) to develop a website and marketing strategy for their new Rack n Stack storage product line. Several months later, HP referred Mouseclicks to Sony to design, build and market the first website for their new Advanced Intelligent Tape (AIT) Technology Forum, a site we still maintain to this day.
Soon after, a small 15-person company named Granite Systems hired Mouseclicks for a quick, one-time website project. Their CEO shared that he was planning to build his own internal web department and that we would be transitioning all work to them by the end of the project. Instead, Granite retained us for five years, and we served as their outsourced web department until they were acquired by Telcordia Technologies in 2004. During our years with Granite, we delivered multiple websites, a partner/customer extranet, a corporate intranet, global web marketing services and more—helping Granite grow from approximately $3 million to over $50 million in sales.
In 2000, one of the largest and most respected banks in the world, Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), hired us to consult on an intranet project for their Global Private Banking (GPB) division. Our success with the intranet quickly led to an SEO project that resulted in a 600% increase in global leads to the GPB website. RBC later involved us in a joint SEO project with British Airways Global Financial Services. Presently, Mouseclicks continues to provide consultancy on web strategy and marketing initiatives for RBC Insurance, Mortgages, Financial Planning, Brand Management and Advertising, Investments, Global Private Banking and many others.
Today, Mouseclicks continues to help both small to mid-size businesses and large, international corporations use the web more effectively. Celebrating our 13th year in business, we provide our clients with end-to-end web solutions, including website design and development, search engine optimization, pay-per-click advertising, intranet and extranet development, and corporate identity.
