At the dawn of the Internet era, Compumedical was formed...

Compumedical publishes the first website dedicated to educating women on breast augmentation and breast implants. It becomes an instant success, with thousands of women flocking to the site to learn, discuss and support. It has a very early form of user generated content: stories and pictures from real women who have had the procedure. It also features discussion boards that tens of thousands of women have benefited from over the years…and it's still going strong!

Like LipoSite, Faceforum was spurred by ImplantInfo. It's a site dedicated to any and all things anti-aging and facial contouring, including rhinoplasty, facelift, and a wide variety of anti-aging techniques.

Advice Media became the first company in the industry to use IP lookup technology to identify a visitor's location and serve up healthcare professionals near that visitor.

Recognizing the need for top-notch services for healthcare practices, Advice Media turned its core capabilities in design, development, and digital marketing outward by offering them to healthcare practices.

Recognizing that this technology would soon dominate website development, Advice Media became the first agency in healthcare to invest in responsive technology. At that point, ALL of our competitors laughed at us, but we recognized the enormous potential!

Google recommended responsive technology as the best practice for developing websites, proving Advice Media was ahead of the industry. Our competitors continue to spin their wheels trying to sell old technology.

Advice Media became the first company in the industry to release a website with responsive technology less than a month after Google made its recommendation. Of course, the technology had been in development for six months!

Once again ahead of the pack, Advice Media recognized that social media needed to become part of every digital marketing strategy. Advice Media became the first company to combine organic traffic generation with social media to offer clients a comprehensive visibility strategy.

Advice Media acquired the assets of the Everyday Doctors Division from Everyday Health. Among other things, the assets included approximately 400 agency clients.

Watching advanced trends at Google, Advice Media realized that forthcoming changes would rock the world of organic search and tilt the balance in favor of PPC. Advice Media developed a comprehensive pay-per-click (aka Search Engine Marketing or SEM), offering to complement and further extend its suite of comprehensive digital marketing services.

Advice Media acquired E6 Interactive, a leader in digital marketing for aesthetic medical practices.

As part of the E6 acquisition, Advice Media took over a development office in the Philippines, making us a truly global company.

As foreseen by Advice Media, Google significantly limited the available real estate for organic search engine results on the screen, further emphasizing PPC as an integral part of any serious digital marketing campaign.

Google awarded Advice Media an incredibly hard-to-get Partner designation! In Google's notification, they said, "Tell everyone that you've earned our trust and deserve theirs." Yes, we are proud (but not prideful)!

Advice Media is pleased to support The Christine Meredith Miele Foundation (CMMF) through the design, development, and maintenance of their website. The CMMF is dedicated to defeating breast cancer through awareness, research, and prevention.

We rock! Google nominated Advice Media to the reputable 2015 International Google Partners All-Stars Summit. The event took place at Google's headquarters in Mountain View, California, more commonly known as GooglePlex. This prestigious, highly selective award is a testament to our cutting-edge approach and market-leading service offerings. We lead the pack! The invitation for Advice Media to attend the 2015 International Google Partners All-Stars Summit was a great exemplification of our team's hard work and their continuous dedication to their clientele. This was the first time Advice Media had been invited to the International Google Partners All-Stars Summit and it definitely won't be the last!

Advice Media CEO Shawn Miele is appointed to the Image Reborn Foundation (IRF) Board of Directors. Advice Media becomes an official supporter of IRF by designing, developing, and maintaining the IRF website. The Image Reborn Foundation provides no-cost healing retreats to women diagnosed with breast cancer to empower them to live fully beyond breast cancer.

Advice Media, the industry leader in digital marketing for healthcare professionals, continues its strategic growth with the acquisition of MedNet Technologies. The deal joins the acquisition of Everyday Doctors in November 2013, as well as E6 Interactive in February 2014. Advice Media has proven its ability to effectively incorporate new clients by leveraging current processes to provide optimal results for new and existing customers. Shawn Miele, Advice Media CEO, commented on the acquisition, "MedNet Technologies was one of the first companies in the world to provide digital services to medical practices. With 17 years of operating history, MedNet has built a tremendous team of talented people and services many marquee medical practices." Shawn continued, "We're pleased to welcome both MedNet's employees and clients to the Advice Media family. We'll be focusing on integrating best practices from MedNet with those of Advice Media to create even better service delivery for our customers." MedNet's employees, located primarily in Melville, NY, will be joining Advice Media but maintaining their current offices to foster a seamless transition. Preserving the local office also allows the MedNet team to continue providing world-class customer service to their clients without any service interruption. Jack and Chris Pellman, MedNet founders, will both be pursuing new endeavors. The remainder of the MedNet team will be joining Advice Media. "My brother Christian and I are thrilled about the acquisition by Advice Media," said MedNet President and CEO, Jack Pellman. "MedNet's historical strength in website design and development will now combine with Advice Media's extensive online marketing services for healthcare practices. Without a doubt, medical and dental providers will now have the broadest choices and finest services when considering a digital agency for their practice."

Since 1998, MedNet Technologies has been designing, managing, and marketing websites for healthcare professionals throughout the United States and abroad. With a diverse portfolio of over 2,000 clients, MedNet offers online solutions for practices and organizations of all sizes - from individual providers to multi-discipline medical groups.

Advice Media launches a new logo and brand, which incorporates the name recognition of both former Advice Media and MedNet and subtly showcases our love for the mountains with a new logo mark.

From skiing to hiking to mountain biking, we love all that Park City has to offer! In an effort to give back, Advice Media became an official sponsor of the Mountain Trails Foundation in Park City, UT, and adopted the care of Jenni's Trail.

The former MedNet office in Melville got a redesign! Our fresh new space allows a ton of natural light and features modern workstations and a collaborative workspace.
