Online sales and staff benefits operation www.cheapelectricals.co.uk hit £2m+ sales for 2006-2007 and achieved a top 5000 ranking from Google.
Google has varying levels of webmaster administration options that are dependent upon a website's ranking EiC now has its own Google campaign manager
John Payne, EiC Internet Marketing Manager, said: "Cheapelectricals.co.uk is positioned to offer manufacturers' clearance lines and exclusive member's discounts.
"Many ompanies have linked up to offer their employees extra benefits and exclusive offers - we can tailor these to individual client's requirements.
"These links along with concerted advertising campaigns have established us as one of the major home electronics sites in the market".
Ray Jobsz, Director of EiC, explained the strategy behind Cheapelectricals.co.uk: "In the old days many of our potential clients sourced through catalogues such as Argos, and they were the industry bible.
"In 2000 we identified the potential market change and knew we would need an internet presence as it was clearly going to be an important strategy for the future.
"In the last six years the site has grown to represent over £2m in sales and at its peak received more than 5 million hits and over 100,000 visitors.
"This is phenomenal growth from a small company and we are actually outplaying many of the major high-street retailers.
"We have many blue-chip companies using the site for staff and incentive campaigns and our members' exclusive section is proving to be very successful.
"The internet has transformed many businesses and some have failed to grasp the opportunities of this technology; those who have not are being left behind, it is ever changing and requires constant monitoring, but the rewards are there for those who plan ahead.".
