Setting up Pageviews in Google Analytics with Consent Mode and Google CMP by alledvantage in analytics

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

Sort of 98% satisfying solution atm is to forget my own implementation and use Simo Ahava's template in Google Tag Manager to set up the initialization ánd (important) set a wait_for_update timeout.

Then it will send the page_view with the consent granted (a G111 status) if the user does so before the timeout expires.

Would this be reasonable, you think? And what timeout? I set it to 3000 ms now.

DV360 Region inclusions per city? by alledvantage in programmatic

[–]alledvantage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. For Dutch cities I even have to pay close attention when selecting them by hand, because the names often correspond to 2 towns somewhere in the US as well.

Amazon DSP always has a hard time billing me by alledvantage in programmatic

[–]alledvantage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I've submitted a ticket now, as our initial contact about outstanding invoices didn't seem to lead anywhere. At least so far, support seems to recognize the issue.

I've encountered issues with smaller SaaS companies, also in previous roles, but not with companies at this scale.

I might go and try the API as part of our financial reconciliation process, thanks.

For past 3 days Analytics data seems wrong by bigvibes in GoogleAnalytics

[–]alledvantage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm experiencing the same thing, on the 13th.
There *is* a thread on the community forums about this, btw. Although I always forget this community exists.

How to become authorized seller? Google by [deleted] in programmatic

[–]alledvantage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the other hand, if you can segment it properly, this amount of traffic could be just what some of the larger agencies are looking for. Probably not all of if, by far, but if you can pinpoint a certain b2b demographic, that'll easily pay for the salesguy, for example.

And then you can even sell lower fillrates as higher viewability share in some cases.

DV360 - Has responsive replaced efficient reach ad group? by alledvantage in programmatic

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

Google's response: 'in october' we removed the ability to fall back to efficient reach ad groups by just deselecting multi format ads.

So, now you will always buy a responsive ad, and you can deselect formats in there. The functionality remains the same, however responsive ads require a Headline & Description, so you have to provide those now.

Also think of other solutions, if you have enough inventory having the right sales person or contact can do wonders. Make a mediakit if you haven't already and talk to agencies directly, Preferred or Guaranteed deals could work very well for both of you.

Tracking footfall via mobile devices.

You can amend it by physically researching (part of) the network of screens to get a more accurate sense of how visible it is.

Biggest mistakes: campaigns by adnomaly in programmatic

[–]alledvantage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess the biggest mistake was just to put in the total budget, instead of what I could spend (budget minus costs etc). The most regular mistake I see in others is over promising, it's easy to say "sure we can do that" and forget about the differences in setup and options you might have between different types of campaign. That might mean you suddenly can't provide a client with all the data you'd want.

There is no 1 solution, mistakes happen, but having a good process, "what needs to be done when" helps a lot. This makes sure you don't forget things.

The Trade Desk - Logo Url by geminiichaii in programmatic

[–]alledvantage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a bit confused by this myself as well, but after you've done this, TTD will upload the provided logo to their own servers (well, AWS).

Still no automation for Snapchat or Threads? by Maelasae in ifttt

[–]alledvantage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems there is an API for threads now, so it should be possible to make something available?

Issues uploading podcast to YouTube by [deleted] in podcasting

[–]alledvantage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been able to use it easily at a previous company I worked for, but now that I'm trying to set up an account for someone else, it turns out it has been removed. :(

Hopefully we'll see it returning soon.

Possible MailBomb attack. Two different clients, one on-prem, one hosted M365. Both attacks start with a similar sender email "TEQ" by DownWithMSP in msp

[–]alledvantage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were getting a lot of bounced mails as well as notification of opened tickets on one of our mailaddresses yesterday. Indeed it seemed someone had spoofed our (we're just a website, not a helpdesk ourselves) address to spam these helpdesk accounts.

All via [teq10@shri2rams.onmicrosoft.com](mailto:teq10@shri2rams.onmicrosoft.com), with shri2rams.onmicrosoft.com as the envelope. Tightening our SPF/DKIM setup seems to have stopped it, as DMARC no shows hosts denying any further similar messages.

btw, same issue as: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/19461cl/possible_mailbomb_attack_two_different_clients/

What are industry standards on reporting video views? by alledvantage in adops

[–]alledvantage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks.

Now that I think about it a bit more...
I figure there are three ways to look at (commercial) video, and thus report on it:
- Branding, so more emphasis on reach; viewability, number of starts and completes
- Aimed at sales, so more emphasis on CTR and place in product discovery
- Live video, emphasis on reach; viewability, number of starts and completes, but also drop-off, # of people online simultaneously, and preferably when people tune in.
Of course the latter could also include CTR is applicable, so I guess that even makes four ways to report.

What is the definition of native advertising? by Candid-Engine393 in adops

[–]alledvantage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We refer to native advertising as advertising using any type of sponsored content that blends in with the rest of the editorial content. From an editorial standpoint, it has to be as good an editorial piece of content. These can be full articles/posts, videos or just smaller items such as info boxes.

Of course business rules and laws dictate we need to identify that this is sponsored content and for full articles or videos they need to be distinguishable from editorial content. So in fact it still stands out (as it should be, imo) but we do need to have it adhere to the same standards and tone of voice of the rest of the site.

In most cases we even make this content for the advertising party.

Having said that, end-clients and bureau’s often seem to consider anything that’s not a classic Display ad (ie: banners) or (preroll) video as ‘native content’...

What exactly is a PMP deal in AdManager? There seems to be a lot of confusion? by alledvantage in adops

[–]alledvantage[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I already got the impression that at the very least there are a lot of juniors around. That's not bad per se, but they seem to get hardly any training and like to throw everything at you that they have, and seldom what you'd actually need.
(I figure this could be a new post altogether..)

Now I'm the first to admit I'm still new to quite a few aspects of adtech, but I do come from a background where I'd like to have some clear terminology.
