You mean positive +25 % don't you? I don't see this figure anywhere,

sv.wiki (but single-month peaks are not to be trusted that much).

Usually it's been anectodically blamed for reducing rather than 
increasing visits. There is no clear timeline of the changes they did so 
it's hard to make correlations in a serious way (nobody even tried so 
far, I think?).
