Free onsite search could be costing your university more than you think. And with Google's upcoming Programmable Search Engine (PSE) changes, those hidden costs are becoming harder to ignore. Starting December 31, Google PSE will no longer support sites with more than 50 domains, leaving many higher education institutions facing an important decision about their onsite search strategy. But the real cost of "free" search goes beyond the price tag. From limited customization and ongoing maintenance to poor search experiences that make it harder for students to find what they need, free solutions can come with significant trade-offs. Google's changes are an opportunity for universities to rethink what they're getting from onsite search and what they actually need to deliver a better digital experience. Read our blog to explore the hidden costs of free higher ed software and why it's time to reconsider your approach. 👇 na2.hubs.ly/H08l-qW0 #HigherEdMarketing #HigherEducation #DigitalExperience

One idea from Monday at Content Marketing World really stuck with us: great marketing doesn’t just earn attention. It provides guidance. Sarah Baker, VP of Digital Marketing at DaVita, talked about “Winning at Guidance” and the role marketers play in helping people navigate complexity, make decisions and take meaningful action. That’s a challenge we think about a lot at SearchStax.  Creating great content is only part of the job. Your audience still needs to find the right information at the right moment. And as websites grow more complex and AI changes how people look for answers, the experience between “I need something” and “I found it” matters more than ever. That’s where search and discovery become part of the content strategy, not just a website feature. If you’re at Content Marketing World today, come see us at Booth 926. We’d love to talk about how better search and discovery can help turn all that great content you’re creating into better answers, better experiences and meaningful action. #CMWorld #ContentMarketing #DigitalExperience #ContentStrategy

That’s a wrap on #SHSMD26 in Baltimore! A few themes we heard throughout the week: AI is moving quickly from experimentation to execution. Health systems are rethinking how content serves both people and AI. And with teams being asked to do more with less, connecting technology investments to real outcomes matters more than ever. Most importantly, better digital experiences still start with understanding what patients need and making it easier for them to take the next step. Thanks to everyone who connected with the SearchStax team this week. Great conversations and plenty to take home. #SHSMD26 #HealthcareMarketing #DigitalExperience
