We won! And what an incredible journey it’s been so far for Shoptimised. We are honoured to have won Best Use of Data (PPC) at the UK Seach Awards 2021. We are both humbled and excited to be recognised best in our industry.

This year we were honoured to be finalists for 2 awards: Best Use of Data (PPC) and Best Low Budget Campaign. We were absolutely over the moon to walk away with the Best Use of Data award.

Having developed new advanced features for our Product Feed optimisation and incremental software over the past 18 months, we are pleased to see our hard work paying off.

This past year only, we have continued to grow rapidly. We have grown our staff headcount by 500 percent from a team of 6 to 32 heads across our Customer Service, Business Development, Technical and Marketing teams.

Winning this award for our work with Designer Outlet Sales, motivates us as a business to continue developing our software and continue offering growth solutions to e-commerce businesses across the North East, in the UK and overseas.

Bringing home the award for Best Use Of Data is even more special to us this year, as it was the 10th anniversary of the UK Search Awards, celebrating marketing agencies and individuals and their excellent work with Search Engine campaigns. We were up against some incredible competition, so we are honoured to have won this year.

And we must admit that the team that went down to London for the awards ceremony couldn’t have enjoyed their night more, celebrating the win and the great achievement for all of us. We were delighted to enjoy the first in-person awards ceremony post-lockdown as we got to meet our fellow finalists and other familiar faces from the tech and marketing industry. It was wonderful to celebrate our own win along with the amazing businesses that we have across the country.

Many thanks to We Are Search for the amazing night and congratulations to all the winners and runners-up.
