Coming Soon: Penguin 2.0

Matt Cutts announced on Monday that there are some pretty big changes in the Google algorithm coming down the pipes, as Cutts calls it: Penguin 2.0. Exact release date is TBA, but it sounds like it will be coming in the summer months.

In the past, algorithm updates have only been revealed when they are significant. This one was announced ahead of time and labeled with a 2.0, not a 1.6,7,etc. – so we can expect that the SERPs will be shifting indefinitely pretty soon. Some brands will likely see improvements in their search performance, while others less fortunate may fall off the radar completely. Continue reading →

Help Us Welcome Kai to the Crew!

Kai AlcazarenFor the third time this year, we’re elated to introduce a new member of Team Evolve. Hailing from Festus, Kai Alcazaren is officially on board as an SEO Manager.

Kai brings with him an impressive portfolio of digital experience, including having developed custom mobile applications for higher education. His interest in lead generation and user experience made Kai an ideal candidate for the position, in which he will assist clients and our own brand in building a stronger digital presence. From generating content strategy to fixing on-site errors, Kai is going to contribute in a myriad of ways. We can’t wait to get started.

Kai has already adjusted swimmingly, dodging our sarcasm with charm and impressing us with his dietary self control (he willingly snacked on a plain baked sweet potato as the rest of us enjoyed sangrias and jerk chicken at Boogaloo for HIS induction lunch). That’s dedication.

Intern wanted!

Intern wanted image

Team Evolve is searching for someone with an interest in Search to contribute to the team as an Internet Marketing intern.

About us:

We’re a digital marketing agency that focuses on SEO, PPC, content strategy, outreach, and beer. Our office is located in Maplewood and has some exceptional character, just like everyone on Team Evolve. One thing that makes us different from a lot of other SEO or SEM firms is that we put a strong emphasis on educating our clients, rather than just doing the work for them and sending over the results.

We have fun, but we also get shit done. This is a PAID internship, so we’re only interested in applicants that impress us.

Reasons to be thankful in 2012

This has been a huge year for Evolve Digital Labs, and we have a lot to be thankful for. We’ve added some stellar talent to the team and have worked with wonderful clients. We upgraded our website to be more aesthetically pleasing, easier to navigate, and more capable of hosting resources for our visitors. Finally, we moved shop from Downtown St. Louis to beautiful, eclectic, sometimes weird Maplewood. Our neighbors, The Rampant (who work literally across the street), have been welcoming and hilarious. They introduced us to the Chamber of Commerce here in Maplewood and now we’re proud members.

Google Tag Manager – What is it?

Google has recently rolled out a free tool called “Google Tag Manager” for Webmasters and IT professionals as well as digital marketers and SEOs alike. Its purpose is to allow for easy management of website tags in one location, known as a container tag. Learn more about the basics of container tags here.

Container tags are designed to make our job easier by combining all website tags into one location, known as a container. This one container file is then the end-all for updating, adding, and deleting tags. In other words, it eliminates the need to go through Analytics, AdWords, etc., to update website tags. Instead, any changes can be implemented through this one container tag, just by updating changes directly to a Google Tag Manager account and then clicking “publish” (an important step).

Everyone, this is Blake!
Blake, this is everyone.

Team Evolve Digital Labs is happy to have a new member on board. Read on to find more about this guy!

Hey everyone! I’m Blake, and I’m really stoked to be doing digital strategy work on the Evolve team.

I’ve been active on the web for years. It’s been almost fifteen years since I built my first website, and I haven’t stopped learning the way the web works since. At previous jobs I’ve used my skills in digital and creative strategy to help social and search campaigns for many different industries. 

I’m hoping to add a lot to the Evolve team, and hoping to learn a lot from the incredible talent they have here already. Lots of great stuff to look to in the future!
