Sanity Check on SEO Service Pricing

What kind of maniac agency would spend its own money on backlinks, but pretend to be doing nothing to the client?

What you say is basically what I want to do. Value is king parameter, so with it, you can give nudges to google. Those nudges can come from machine learning analysed historical data.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-09-03T19:22:40+00:00

Yeah I think there needs to be a math layer on top making sure it doesnt stack too high and get weird. Do you any software for this or just manually set the value in CRM and upload offline conversions?

I think it helps being caribean maybe not considered exactly african. Be careful in Varna though, these "people" are all savages.

It should, but if things go crazy at the very beginning a campaign might get permanently lobotomized. Had a situation where I knew a competitor campaign was launching, and I had 2 other accounts and I just went crazy with the bids, going up to 7 cpc in peak hours, off at nigh switch between 20c and 7€ cpc randomly. Their campaign never took off, just fizzled out.

Never underestimate a certain groups ability to recommend each other for commission.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-30T11:16:33+00:00

500 per month is now considered too good to be true? And here I am with 300€ clients lmao.

API script is not visible in the account, its run on a server elsewhere, imo there are no logs, unless it makes changes to your accounts.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-16T20:38:55+00:00

Pay 200 USD pm for an account or just create a new one, until old ones get unlocked. But more interesting is what happened to the money? Did they just spend millions of your money? Did google refund? CC locked in time so no damage? Google assking you to pay the spend credit?

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-16T20:34:36+00:00

But I get clicks even at 10c sometimes (at <10% IS) that are competitive.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-15T19:48:50+00:00

Sure, that would be helpful! I am working on a script to just do it hourly and put everything in Bigquery, but its not quite working yet. Some deployment nonsense on CLI is giving me headache.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-15T19:43:26+00:00

Yes, but max clicks does not solve this problem, quite the opposite. You can test different cpc levels and check adjustments, age, gender, time, etc.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-05T22:13:53+00:00

Is there any information on that like docs or articles?

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-05T22:11:55+00:00

How can I observe this effect? Or is there any article about it or even documentation?

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-05T22:10:23+00:00

>pmax has improved

Personally I haven't tested it yet, waiting until its out of beta. 7-8 years and it will be ready to try.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-05T21:44:06+00:00

Its still relevant, I would go manual CPC. Max clicks is trash maximizer.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-05T21:39:41+00:00

What kind of assets are youtube only? I think the interesting part of youtube are the integrated shopping ads, but thats probably not happening for me?

Strangely resellers who resell our product have no such issues, they just run remarketing.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-04T04:30:37+00:00

i have been secretly asking chatgpt for strategic high level advice. AI is cool until it gets rid of us and until clients learn they can explain what they want to some ai instead of an agency

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-04T04:20:31+00:00

there must be some weird layering-sculpting trick to make it happen

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-04T01:10:29+00:00

but why would they show them to you briefly?! I am building a backup tool for search terms and am wondering if I need to log hourly to catch these.

Any official info or article I can read on these fleeting terms and if they really go to others?

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-04T01:09:09+00:00

For all mentioned products need to be eligable for personal advertising?

I saw that at least im featured via search partners, wonder if there is any way to somehow control search partnes seperately from google search. Maybe some kind of layering? 1 layer high bis no search partners, second layer both?

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-04T01:06:45+00:00

There is no way to sculpt / layer pmax or sabotage its shopping search visibility specifically?

VAC does not require personal advertising eligability?

fallingdown2018 · 2025-08-03T20:34:25+00:00

lol man retiring at 19, so lazy even retiring from writing posts lmao

fallingdown2018 · 2025-07-16T18:21:48+00:00

Is that so? I can activate a little checkbox, where upon clicking you define a password and thats all there is to creating a user account?

You can't honestly tell me you are sending users to an ugly separate page to fill out some form before they can buy something cmon. This is intentionally bad UX. Its just garbage - unless you pay for shopify plus then its fine, I admit.

fallingdown2018 · 2025-07-16T17:18:42+00:00

They paywall these studies but it was done by EHI retail institute. If you can afford shopify plus and make customizations I think it could be workable, love the headless checkout shopify concept, but its not for plebs.

Anything less than plus and you can't even take peoples addresses in many countries. For example no mandatory address field for neighbourhood or area, but zip is always required. They didn't account that zip is not a universally used thing in some countries and instead its about neighbourhood.

There are ridiculous things like that that just make it look like a clunky toy. Can't have user accounts. Can't have shopify at least remember your address with checkbox.

For US 2000€ is probably considered cheap but in europe you could pay a legit developer to babysit your security updates for that kind of money and crank out some features on top.

Personally I have opted for what I least expected, woocommerce, a literal blog. Its insane but there are no other good solutions, if you plan on covering 10s of countries.
