FAQ
What is Engage?
Engage instantly identifies whether your brand is being marketed by the sites returned in Google’s search results. You’ll see whether your brand appears on the page or is represented elsewhere on the site. You’ll quickly identify new affiliates to work with or be able to improve coverage with existing affiliates.
How does Engage work?
Engage constantly monitors the content of advertisers’ websites, so it can quickly identify whether your brand is on the page or anywhere else on the website.
What other information does Engage provide?
Engage’s advanced AI Engine is able to determine all of the ranking pages an advertisers site has and the terms for which they rank.
Uniquely, Engage identifies other websites the affiliate is associated with (owns), providing URL details to be examined further.
Can Engage help me find contact details for the Affiliate?
Absolutely. Engage does the hard work for you. If there are contact details on the site, Engage finds them and presents you with the most relevant options. These are likely to be links to Email and Social networking profiles.
Why would I use Engage?
Engage saves you huge amounts of time when you’re searching for new affiliates to work with. It also identifies opportunities to increase your exposure with your existing affiliates.
Engage does all the hard work for you, presenting information that shows whether your brands are being represented on the page or site of the affiliate.
What would normally take you 10 minutes now takes seconds.
Do I still have to contact the affiliate?
Yes you do.
However you’ll now be armed with information about the affiliate, the sites they have and the ranking pages. This will all help with your negotiations.
How many people can use engage?
Once you’ve created an account and topped it up with credits you can create as many user accounts as you like.
Each account will draw down from the main credits total.
Is there a subscription to use Engage?
There is no ongoing subscription to use Engage. Once you have opened an account you’ll have access to all of the Engage functionality to help you find new affiliates and perform competitor research.
Engage uses a credits based system to charge for its use. Every search you run will use credits for each results displayed. That way you only pay for what you actually use.
What is a territory?
A “Territory” is most often a country, but could also be a State within a country (New Jersey – US) that provides specific opportunities, such as a unique regulatory regime.
Engage will scan from specific territories around the world (subject to a setup process), ensuring you’re delivered localised results for the Territories you search in.
What territories are available?
Engage operates in the UK, US (New Jersey), Canada (English and French terms), India and New Zealand. More countries are being added constantly. Please ask for further details.
Can I share information from Engage?
If you have other users on the system you can share results and notes.
The system is not designed to replace your CRM, but allows you to keep enough notes to track what you’re doing.
Can I download the results from Engage?
Not at the moment. This facility is planned for a later release.
Can I bulk upload Keywords into Engage?
Keyword searches currently have to be entered manually.
We are planning an upload facility for a future version.
We do link to Googles keyword planner, to offer alternative keyword suggestions for the keyword you’ve searched for.
How long does it take to get setup?
Setup is a straightforward process. We can have you up and running in a few minutes.
Do I need to download any software?
No. Engage works through a browser.
Does Engage hold personal information?
Engage does not hold any personal information.
Engage processes information that is in the public domain and uses that with its unique AI engine to provide the results.
Do I need to provide you with a link to my affiliate software?
No. Engage is a standalone product.
Does engage have an interface to connect with my CRM system?
No, although this may be something for a future release.
How is Engage different from other tools I use to find affiliates?
Engage does what other tools don’t do.
Other tools provide data that you have to wade through and make decisions about. Engage does this work for you.
Engage is unique, as it can both identify sites which are relevant affiliates for your brand and it analyses the WHOLE affiliate site and not just the page returned in Googles search results.
It’s not just a time saving tool – which you could put a cost too, it’s about the opportunity and the unique information Engage is able to provide about the affiliate, that just doesn’t exist elsewhere.
