Those who work in search engine optimization (SEO) or website design know that Google adjusts its search algorithms pretty frequently, usually with tweaks too small to even notice. Every now and then, the search engineers trot out a truly significant algorithmic overhaul that sends the entire industry into a frenzy; the Google Penguin and Google Panda updates are a couple of historic examples.
It’s no secret that 2020 has been a difficult and disorienting year, with all of our lives disrupted by the pandemic and its ensuing economic uncertainty. One of the things we’re proudest of here at enCOMPASS Agency is that, despite the extraordinary challenges, our team continues to do amazing work each and every day.

Advertisers thrive on access to clear, actionable data. For example, Google provides advertisers with a treasure trove of metrics and analytics that allow them to determine who’s seeing their ads and why; this information, in turn, can lead to more informed budgeting, targeting, messaging, and beyond.
Advertisers have long depended on third-party cookies to guide their efforts in digital ad buying and targeting. Recently, however, Google announced that it would be phasing out third-party cookies sometime in 2024. What once seemed like a distant deadline now looms closer by the day, and it’s important for advertisers to start thinking seriously about how they will respond to this significant change.
