What You Need to Know About PPC
Pay per click advertising (PPC) can be effective, but it’s also ruthless. Literally every click counts, and anything you do that is wasteful or misguided is ultimately going to cost you. It’s important to be meticulous in your approach, and that means understanding PPC’s ins and outs—how to do it well, and how to avoid going off the rails.
At enCOMPASS, our motivation is pretty straightforward: We do great work that makes a difference for our clients. If our clients are happy, then we’re happy too. Awards and accolades are just icing on the cake. With that said, we’re always honored when our work is cited for its excellence, and are proud to announce the recipient of six W3 Awards here at the end of 2016.

Where is Social Media Headed?
Though it’s hard to remember it now, it really wasn’t that long ago that we were all living in a pre-Snapchat world. Even popular social platforms like Pinterest have come into their own over the past few years, while the social media cycle has also brought us the rise and fall of Vine and, to a lesser extent, Google+. The point is that the social media landscape is anything but static. Even within established venues like Facebook, there are big trends and shifts happening all the time, such as the recent advent of Facebook Live streaming.
How PPC Changed in 2016
No integrated digital marketing strategy is complete without a provision for paid search; indeed, paid search is increasingly vital for gaining visibility on the search engine results page (SERP), and works best when it’s combined with the organic SEO approach.
How to Use Livestream Video Successfully
Livestream video has become a huge trend in social media marketing, with platforms like Facebook pushing it more and more aggressively. That push is not without reason, and not without results: Some studies show that Facebook users spend three times longer watching live video than they do pre-recorded fare.
AdWords Not Working for You? Here's Why.
We’re big believers in the power of pay-per-click (PPC) advertising to boost brand visibility and to connect with consumers. We’re hardly the only digital marketing agency to think so. With that said, we understand that Google AdWords can be difficult for the PPC novice to understand, let alone optimize. That can be frustrating: we talk to many small business owners who believe AdWords can work for them, but they’re just not sure how.
What's New On LinkedIn?
For many professionals, LinkedIn is a staple of the digital daily diet. As such, you’ve probably noticed that the popular networking site has received a facelift, at least in its desktop iteration—and some of us might say a much-needed one. Though the cosmetic overhaul is pretty evident, there may be some features or tweaks you haven’t noticed yet. Because LinkedIn is significant both for jobseekers and for marketers, these changes are worth reviewing in some detail.
Are You Practicing the Right Kind of SEO?
Practicing SEO requires you to make many decisions each day—but the most foundational decision you make is this: Will you engage in white hat SEO practices, or black hat? Or, to put it differently, will you be one of the good guys, or will you choose instead to be an outlaw?
With so many choices for how to purchase media, it’s important to take the time and understand all of the options available — so at the end of the day you are choosing the best possible way to reach your customers on the path they take to find you, research your inventory, compare you to other options and choose (or don’t choose) you. Even though programmatic has become the dominant way for digital advertisers to purchase media — according to eMarketer 67% of display advertising, 69% of mobile advertising and 56% of digital video advertising was programmatic in 2016 — it’s always valuable to understand what other methods are available to you.
