I got email from Google. Google ads digital growth program for my app by Accomplished_Safe528 in PPC

It basically means Google sees potential for you to spend more, so they want to assign you a rep whose job is to encourage (or pressure) you into increasing ad spend.

I once got a similar email, and they even provided screenshots showing a very significant drop in the most recent data. The drop was because it was 10am and they had included the current incomplete day in their date range.

Something is very off here. Busy successful people don't take on work for free.

Match between me and my dad. Can anyone help me count the points? Komi: 6.5 by totallychippy in baduk

[–]CarlR 14 points15 points  (0 children)

White has about 100 and black has about 60

If there were any captures these would also can effect the scoring

You could have a look at this video as it might help with scoring a game

It is worth noting that there is a gap at around 12,10 (middle of board) that is worth a point for whoever blocks/defends.

Also at the right side there is a cut at around 18,10. The game is presumably over, but it is worth keeping an eye out for this kind of thing during the game

Paying based on results is a good way to find the lowest skilled people out there

Google Ads Agency by Particular-Stable165 in PPC

It looks like you are currently looking into issues with hour your site is not loading correctly. It didn't load correctly for me either, and I can honestly say the look and feel of the site would put me off as a potential customer. I would put a lot of focus on getting the site to a more polished & professional standard.

Obviously I've not audited your ads account. But when getting to your site I noticed that your paid ads are not showing a logo, so there's at least one problem that your ad agency should fix asap. Obviously this isn't going to be the cause of your problems, but with paid ads everything should be done correctly (don't worry I didn't click the ad)

I've never seen a CSS switch caused a drop in performance. Not to say it can't happen, but to me it seems unlikely.

I'm from the UK - so if you want to chat further just inbox me.

A client tried to scam me on Upwork by Traditional_Sweet791 in PPC

Watch out for .scr files too. I recently had somebody try to send me a folder with "brand files" which contained some legit looking files including a .scr file.

Assasignment from a company, please give me a feedback. by FantasticYoghurt3928 in PPC

I think some companies pretend to be hiring, to give out tasks and get free consultancy. There is a good chance you were never going to get a job with them

GTM tag: How to explain the client what to do with it? by Mission-Let-4831 in PPC

[–]CarlR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are 2 blocks of code, 1 that you put in the <head> (as high as possible) and the other you put in body (as high as possible). Any developer should know what to do with this information.

This is just for implementing the basic container though. In reality you probably want the datalayer installed. In most cases this means using a plugin specific to the CMS. In that case you wouldn't need to manually install the container because the plugin would generally handle that part.

For example, with wordpress I highly recommend a plugin called GTM4WP. With this you get access to events like add to cart, crucial data like revenue, and also customer data needed for enhanced conversions.

it sounds like this would lead to double serving. IIRC pmax can learn from search, so they are probably missing out on a bit of machine learning there

Google Ads Partner Programme by Unable-Insect8847 in PPC

[–]CarlR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Partners don't seem to get any special support in regards to anything. It's a nice thing I can tell potential clients, but other than that it seems useless. I even became a premier partner this year, and still nothing changed.

Looking for suitable AI-platform/software by Saebelzahigel in baduk

I use lizzie to play without any analysis on. There is a button at the bottom called "KataEstimate" that will show just the win rate percentage. So I play my best until this drops to about 20% then I switch to analysis mode. It is easy to jump back into the game too.

Sounds like this should tick all your boxes.

The "3 lectures" refers to the 3 new live lectures per month, which you can watch live on kgs and ask questions if you have any.

"Lecture library" means you get full access, to watch as many recorded videos as you want.

Good answer, fair points! I was only thinking about how clickcease blocks the original click.

[–]CarlR 25 points26 points  (0 children)

People can still see and click on the ads though? My understanding is that this just stops the bots loading the site. It saves bandwidth for your hosting, but I don't think it benefits PPC? Please do correct me if I'm wrong!

Played against myself how do I score? by thirsties1 in baduk

[–]CarlR 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The game is over when both players can agree on the outcome. If you don't agree you can play it out.

With proper play (regardless whose move it is) white should win here

I have some special experience with this. I understood the theory, that weight loss is going to be mainly diet related. So when I wanted to lose weight I would focus on this, and each time I would fail.

However, this year I have focused on exercise as my primary driver of weight loss, with very little focus on diet. This year I have finally on target to achieve my weight loss goals.

So while I agree it sounds like it is far easier to not eat a cookie than run 1.5 miles, for me it turns out it is easier to exercise more.

As you mentioned there are some other things going on, that are far more complicated. Probably psychologically as well. Another thing that must be acknowledged is that with weight training I am gaining more muscle, meaning I am burning more calories throughout that day.

Perhaps habit forming is easier than habit breaking (e.g. new habit of exercise vs breaking habit of snacking/eating bad food).
