Google is giving Standard Shopping campaigns access to Maximize Conversion Value bidding without requiring a Target ROAS, giving advertisers more flexibility and control.

I look at how one broken PPC form notification cost an agency months of leads, and why Danny Gavin says honest communication, QA, and better systems matter as much as campaign performance.

I analyzed a year of B2B campaign data to see when LinkedIn Ads really costs more than Google Ads, when the gap narrows, and how I would budget for each channel.

A synthesis of research and GEO practices explains how poisoned pages and paid mentions can distort AI recommendations and how to reduce the risk.

I’m remembering Bruce Clay, the Father of SEO, whose generosity, leadership and decades of work helped shape the search industry.

I use Projects in Profound to turn AEO data into ranked opportunities, practical tasks, and agent-ready action so I can spend less time analyzing and more time executing.

I can use Profound’s Agent Template Marketplace to clone pre-built AI agent workflows for marketing, SEO, and AEO teams and go live in minutes.

I turn one-off Claude prompts into reusable content audit skills that help me find topical gaps, outdated information, AI visibility issues, and brand voice inconsistencies faster.

Conversion data does more than power reports. I rely on it to teach Google Ads who to target, how aggressively to bid, and where budget should go, which means bad data can quietly turn automation against business goals.

I explain how I use Demand Gen campaigns and negative-intent conquesting to reach competitor-aware buyers earlier, lower costs, and turn competitor weaknesses into stronger PPC opportunities.

I’m seeing Google bring Gemini-powered creative recommendations, expanded video resizing, and stronger web-to-app measurement into Demand Gen to help advertisers improve YouTube campaign performance and better understand customer acquisition.
