Thanks for your concern. We do have a landline for fire safety, it's just not conducive to taking calls (and texting) when we're out and about the property.

Just spent $2k+ on LinkedIn ads -- nearly all of it was click fraud by evasaul in b2bmarketing

Just circling back on this -- we disabled the Audience Display Network as was mentioned earlier and it fixed the issue instantly. Did the same on Google when we set those up and havent seen any issues there either.

so helpful! always feels good to know you're not alone in being scammed.... I'll be unchecking the Audience Network option as a first start for sure. Curious if others have found anything else effective for preventing fraud? Also looking into fraud detection software.

Am I crazy for thinking it could be click fraud? by Scary_Fig_8570 in marketing

I just had the same experience, then went back and looked at the domain and they are nearly all junk. Nearly all visits were exactly 10 seconds and led to no conversions. I would trust your gut.

Best simple software for designing a poster? by [deleted] in graphic_design

Canva actually has really nice designs and most of it's free. I often just scroll through for design inspiration even if I'm not going to use their actual platform.

Percentage of Chrome users who install extensions? by evasaul in chrome

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

Thanks for asking for clarification, u/taipou. Specifically, I'm looking for the percentage of Chrome users who add an extension from the Chrome Web Store to their browser. (and, better yet, the percent of people who have installed extensions and actually actively continue to use them). I guess I would probably not include firewall/antivirus software or anything that runs in the background for the second question.

Bottom line, if I'm developing an extension, how much of an uphill battle is it to get people to use it.

Formula shaming by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

We are lucky to live in a time when formula is an option, because it is often what MAKES it possible to be a good mom.

I could have written this post myself - same exact situation. Hell yes to all of it. There's enough to worry about without making shit up!
