enCOMPASS Agency
Something we always say here at enCOMPASS is that the best online assets in the world are meaningless if nobody sees them. You may have a perfect website, for instance—functional, interactive, aesthetically pleasing, and great for capturing leads and educating customers. If you don’t do anything to drive traffic to the website, though, then what good is the site actually doing you?
What’s in a name? Well, quite a bit, and not least where domain names are considered. In fact, the domain name you choose for your company website can have a very real impact on your branding and on your search engine optimization (SEO) potential.
To be clear, we should start by noting exactly what we mean when we talk about a domain name: Basically, it’s your company’s website address. Ours is encompassagency.com—which seems simple enough, right? For some businesses it is indeed a straightforward decision, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few factors to weigh and consider.
Minor Mistakes That Can Sink Your Website
Your website is more than just an online placeholder or the virtual equivalent of a Yellow Pages entry. In a very real way, it’s your digital storefront; the public face of your brand; the encapsulation of your brand’s values, identity, and reputation.
For many first-time clients and potential customers, your website sets that all-important first impression—and if the website is doing its job properly, it’ll capture their information and help guide them through the sales funnel, all while establishing your brand as the brand of choice.
You may have heard anecdotal evidence to suggest that email marketing is dead. You may be on the receiving end of a lot of promotional emails, for example, that you routinely delete without even opening. You may even have signed up for a service to remove your name from those email lists. And you may take all of this as evidence that, in these golden days of social media, email marketing has become something of a dinosaur—something of an antique.
5 Tips for Perfecting Your Calls to Action
Here’s a question that’s far too often neglected by small business owners: What exactly are you trying to accomplish with your website? Is it merely an online placeholder, or do you intend for it to be an around-the-clock sales machine—actually bringing in leads and converting them to customers? What’s the mark of a successful website, in your mind?
Search engine optimization is part art and part science; there are gifted SEO technicians who devote their professional lives to understanding the inner workings of Google—which, by the way, change almost daily—and still don’t quite have it all figured out. And if they don’t have SEO mastered, what hope do you have, as a non-SEO guru?
It’s the season of awards and accolades, with many industries reflecting on the achievements of the past year and highlighting the biggest superstars. The Web design and marketing verticals are no exceptions—and enCOMPASS Agency is proud to make several short lists of the year’s worthiest design work.
No two business websites are exactly the same, and that’s just as it should be. You may own a small plumbing company; your neighbor may own an accounting firm, and down the street from you may be an e-commerce merchant. Your website doesn’t need to be identical to either of theirs, because your goals are quite different. The very nature of your business is different, and your website should reflect that.
Following four years of award-winning Web design work, enCOMPASS Agency has scored another set of trophies for its already impressive trophy case. It was announced in October that the agency won three titles in this year’s Davey Awards, all for standard-setting Web design work in the health and beauty sector.
‘Tis the Season…for PPC Marketing
Historically, the holiday season has been a time for companies to ramp up their marketing and outreach strategies—understanding that what has worked for them over the last few months won’t necessarily work in the lead-up to Thanksgiving, Hanukah, and Christmas.
