Hanapin Marketing has released its 2013 State of Paid Search report, revealing how PPC marketers are feeling about paid search marketing and where they plan to spend their money in 2014.
A large majority, 83 percent of respondents, said they are feeling positive about the state of paid search. However, in a year in which enhanced campaigns loomed, just 65 percent said they feel optimistic compared to 2012.
