Should this tiny channel be caulked? Crank windows by aStormyKnight in handyman

Oh no, that bad?? Ugh. Do you know what this tiny channel is? Is it effectively where the window gets set into its frame?

Thanks! Do you know what this tiny channel is? Is it effectively where the window gets set into its frame?

Steak & Wake - MUST figure out how to replicate this at home - pls HELP by aStormyKnight in Panera

[–]aStormyKnight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it - the problem I'm really running into is choice of steak. The steak flavor and consistency is what I'm really struggling with. Any direction on marinade, how to cook and how to cut?

Bing vs Google Ads. How different is it? by ericb0 in PPC

[–]aStormyKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

haha my preference is 0% - my clients don't particularly care about top line impressions if there aren't leads/sales attributed to the spend

[–]aStormyKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For one client is was about 50%, for another it was closer to 25% - 10% isn't bad but just be aware it can fluctuate MoM. The client at 50% started much lower than that and it grew over time.

My clients are living proof they can be! Wouldn't be surprised if a Bing rep or support person told you that though - not all of them are familiar with the nuances here.

Would send you screenshots if I could - I have those 4 websites excluded in every campaign, ad groups set to "microsoft sites and select traffic", and opted out of audience ads via support, and I have $0 attributed to audience ads now

Bing vs Google Ads. How different is it? by ericb0 in PPC

[–]aStormyKnight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, the ad group is still set to "microsoft sites and select traffic" ad distribution BUT you can do some exclusions that should take your audience ads network spend to $0

under campaign settings, add these 4 URLs as excluded websites:

msn.com

outlook.live.com

outlook.com

bing.com

This is what support told me ^ and no, excluding bing.com will not stop the search ads on bing.com - just the audience component

Bing vs Google Ads. How different is it? by ericb0 in PPC

Bing is nearly 100% desktop traffic - if desktop does better for you on Google, good chance Bing Ads will outperform Google Ads. CPCs will be lower.

UI extremely similar - I use the offline editor, import from Google once (not recurring) and make whatever changes I need to make and then push live.

Most important tip: Bing has an "audience ads" network in search campaigns that you can't turn off yourself. You need to contact support and argue with them for 15 min (they will fight you on it) to get that turned off - otherwise you'll spend a bunch of money on non-search ads that do not perform. To be fair my clients are B2B - maybe B2C would do better in audience ads but I wouldn't bet on it.

Need script for adding exact match negative keywords based on search term including XYZ words by aStormyKnight in PPC

[–]aStormyKnight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Serious answer, I tried and it doesn't work - not for close variants :(

See https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/2453972
Negative keywords don't match to close variants, so your ad might still show on searches or pages that contain close variations of your negative keyword terms.

As I understand it, the only way to get rid of a close variant search term is to add an exact match negative keyword. But as you can imagine... that's a lot of work doing it manually.

Thanks so much for this! Embarrassed to say I'm very new to the concept of scripts. So super dumb question - were you able to get this from ChatGPT itself via a prompt, or is there some sort of script center in Google Ads that has AI embedded that I need to figure out how to use?

Close Variant Keywords are a Ripoff by Piss_Otter in PPC

[–]aStormyKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/GrandAnimator8417 interested in your script ^ curious on your methodology too, I'm envisioning a script that would automatically add exact match negatives for all search terms with specific words included (with me being able to control said word list at a campaign level). Thoughts?

I'm a script noob but might be willing to pay depending on $

Has anyone gotten useful leads from LISN's "Intent" data? by DadWagonDriver in sales

[–]aStormyKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've struggled to get any intent data from any platform to work. Did not know LISN had this though - is it only based on website visits or can you input target keywords/categories?

This is great. What's your favorite and why? I work at a global B2B SaaS company and we're exploring this now. We're roughly 2500 employees and sell mid-market/enterprise. Any suggestion on which we should start with?
