The Jungfraujoch is the highest railroad station in Europe and one of the top tourist attractions on the continent. The Jungfrau.ch homepage is one of the most visited websites of Switzerland.

The result: +14% more online bookings for the Jungfraujoch with the same number of website visitors. More about this in the video (Swiss German, English and German subtitles available):
