This week the digital excitement knows no bounds as we talk about link-building in 2024; LinkedIn and their AI-infused collaborative articles; fixing unassigned data in GA4; the demise of four attribution models in Google Ads & Analytics and; a long, exciting piece on how retrieval systems work for AI-driven Search Generative Experience and the like. What a time to be alive! Dive in and enjoy this week's Digital Update from JB.
This week's digital excitement knows no bounds! Meta has released some Generative AI tools (nothing to do with the metaverse); Xitter is desperately trying to fill ad inventory; Google goes nuts with two core SEO updates in two months; Google Business Profiles finally link to your social profiles; and those naught bosses at Google have been revealed as trying to manipulate search results for increased revenue. Is nothing sacred? Read on for full details and please like, share, follow and subscribe for more of this every week.
What an exciting AI filled week it’s been. Just like many other weeks recently. Some brands are now blocking GPTBot (until offered cash, no doubt), Lyft is slapping ads into its app, Meta is being useful, Google is actually stopping UA processing (sniff), and there’s been another Google Core Update to pontificate over. Interested? Dive in for more.
In this week's digital news roundup, we delve into Google Ads' new AI Assistant, Twitter's recent changes, and Google's stance on AI-generated content. We also explore YouTube's latest strategies against AdBlockers and its new linking features. Lastly, we touch upon some valuable insights from MozCon on Local SEO. Curious to know more about these developments and how they can impact your digital marketing strategy? Let's dive in and dissect what these updates could mean for your business. :)
A slightly quiet week, unless you're a mod on Reddit, sticking it to the man. But still, some interesting digital marketing info around AI, more AI, how AI can make your dinner, and good old landing page performance. Read on Macduff! And please: like share and follow!
As a business owner, you know the importance of website traffic for leads and sales. SEO has been the go-to strategy for dominating search engine results pages (SERPs). But with the rise of AI, is SEO becoming obsolete? Let's find out! 📈
Another week, almost another plethora of AI-generated articles talking about AI. Luckily, I saved you from that with some news about TikTok shopping, the coming GA4 anapocalypse, and some funy-dunky ski goggles from Apple. Oh, and a couple of articles about AI, admittedly. You can't have everything. Read it now and... Like, Share and Follow :-)
This week we should be thinking about YouTube, that small, forgotten video site, Instagram (ditto), as well as how Google's Generative Search is going down with SEOs (not well) and how Facebook is strong-arming the Canadian government over news sites, yet again. Another fun week in the digital world, so read and enjoy!
This week's Digital Update is almost fully AI (literally). If we didn't have AI, what would we have to talk about? Literally, something to do with actual digital marketing, but there we go. Like the web in the late 90s, AI is this generation's paradigmatic shift. Read on, good info, enjoy. Like share and follow please :-)
This week we have a bit of a yabber about Generative AI Search. Email CTAs, Content Readability and some really groovy stats on Search usage, and PPC benchmarks. Well worth a read, but then I would say that ;-) Don't forget to like, share and follow please!
I'm back after a small slice of life getting in the way with another exciting instalment from the coal face of Digital Marketing. In today's exciting episode Google mutters about ways to cope with no cookies and privacy, there's a very long post on language models, some email tips, Facebook waking up and smelling the AI and Google still banging on about PageSpeed. Right. Click the link to read and let's get into it.
Some JB updates to kick February off in style: Google is ditching Optimize, it may be rolling functionality into GA4, Zuck is becoming Mr Efficiency, Ads add Negatives at Account Level, Local Reviews are important (and not), Short Form Video is where it's at for 2023. You'd better believe it baby.
AI content is all the rage this week - with people literally raging at it; Apple is re-launching its Business Connect as Maps gets usable; Data will be quite important this year as cookies fade away; PPC still needs basic attention and GA4 gets more dimensions for ecommerce. Let's get into it, shall we?
Happy New Year! So nice to be back in 2023, where everything is.... broadly the same: Meta has been fined by the EU, Google is fiddling with Ads, webmasters don't understand crawling, AI is taking over and Google Reviews love pictures. Let's get into it shall we?
What a year this has been! 2022 is coming to an end and that means everybody in the entire world has to forecast the important trends for next year. Yours truly included. Want to know ours? Of course you do. Read them here.
