The Gulf of America is official President Trump ordered it to be changed in official government documents on Wednesday, which has prompted Google Maps and Apple Maps to make the change too. Google said it made the change in line with its "longstanding policy" of reflecting name changes updated in official US government sources, but, the change is only for US users. It'll still be the Gulf of Mexico in Mexico and the rest of the world will get Gulf of America in brackets. Google has had to turn off reviews on that location though, because internet users have bombarded it with one star reviews and comments. Microsoft's Bing Maps are yet to update it. Apple is expected to launch a new low-end phone next week CEO Tim Cook teased the launch saying it'll be an opportunity to see the “newest member of the family”. It's widely expected to be the new version of the iPhone SE, whose current model is the only remaining iPhone with a physical home button. It's expected to get the A18 chip, which is in the current iPhone 16, and will debut the Apple's new homegrown modem. Meta's laid off thousands of people this week They've cut 5% of their workforce, which is up to as many as 3,600 people. They have publicly said they're targeting staff who aren't meeting expectations, to make way for strong AI talent. This is now the third time they've started the year with layoffs.

This episode relates to the just concluded Geo Week in Denver. I went yesterday after receiving free entry to the exhibition hall by the guest from today's podcast. Similar to the Iceye episode released during Geospatial Risk Summit 2 weeks ago, this episode is a way to get a feel for the things discussed at Geo Week and who attends.Hayden Howard is Executive Vice President atCompassData, Inc. We return to the theme of global base maps created by tech companies in this episode. It extends the last one of the topic withJordan Regenie. He mentioned CompassData as participating in the Microsoft campaign to create 3D cities and Streetside imagery for Bing Maps. Hayden was decent enough to come on and explain what they did. In their own words, they're a “Leader in providing Global Ground Control Points (GCP) Survey data for remotely sensed data by satellites and other GIS applications.”Hayden also told us a story about how epic these surveys can be - such as going around Australia.A great episode and high time we hit the surveying subindex on the pod.THE GEOSPATIAL INDEXThe Geospatial Index is a comprehensive listing of all publicly traded geospatial businesses worldwide. Why? The industry is growing at ~5.4% annually (after inflation and after adjusting for base rates). This rate varies significantly, however, by sub index. For ~$400,000 to start, this growth rate is $5,000,000 over a working life. This channel, Bluesky account, newsletter, watchlist and podcast express the view that you are serious about geospatial if you take the view of an investor, venture capitalist or entrepreneur. You are expected to do your own research. This is not a replacement for that. This is not investment advice.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER This episode contains commentary only on the first and fourth amendments of the US constitution. It is not legal advice. The guest is not an attorney. Do not use this episode to make decisions about what is right for you regarding these constitutional amendments. Jordan Regenie is the founder and principal consultant at Peace, Love, Freedom LLC. This is a strategy consultancy for "scaling the acquisition, processing, and production of high-quality geospatial data products" . I came across Jordan on LinkedIn through an article he wrote about working on Bing Maps. I immediately knew I had to request an episode to continue the story Stephanie May started telling about how the tech companies all made their own base maps over the past decade. He has a fantastic story to tell. We also leveraged his law background to answer some questions a new migrant to the US might have about the first and fourth amendments. This was prompted by another one of his articles, on fourth amendment implications for geospatial. Overall an incredibly fruitful conversation for me. This is because his response to my question about the first amendment involved mentioning Larry Lessig's 4 modalities of change. These are law, markets, norms and architecture. This was a really helpful framework to begin to tackle a hard problem where change is necessary. I really recommend listening to that part of the discussion. Jordan's patience, thoughtfulness and obvious taste for adventure made him a great guest and we are so very privileged to have had him on.

Contractor Success Map with Randal DeHart | Contractor Bookkeeping And Accounting Services
This Podcast Is Episode 571, And It's About Practical Tips To Improve Your Construction Marketing Strategy Stepping up your marketing game as a construction business owner is always a welcome topic in my client conversations. Often, contractors chat with me about the best way to promote their company, primarily because no one else is running it. You may focus more on accounting and taxes at times, and at other times, your business may slow down, and sales become more challenging. Given this trend, establishing and maintaining connections with existing and potential customers has become more critical. So, if you're looking to do some construction business promotions to attract more quality clients, what do you do, especially on your own? Here are some practical tips that I highly suggest to consider: 1. Build a solid online presence: Create a website showcasing your services and experience, and make sure it's easy for potential customers and homeowners to contact you. Plus points if you know how to optimize it by location and keywords, or you can always learn a thing or two when you Google: Local Search Engine Optimization. It's essential to show up first in SERPS (Search Engine Results Page) when someone looks for "plumbing emergency in (city)" or "HVAC installer nearby." As you build and edit your pages, keep in mind your USP (Unique Selling Proposition): What your business does. Whom it serves. Why it's different from other companies? How is it beneficial to your prospective client? Note that some of these elements can be divided into sections and published on one page; for instance, Services and Testimonials can work well together. This gives your visitors much-needed assurance that you have had successful projects and happy clients. Create informative content: Share blog posts, videos, and infographics that provide value to your target audience and establish your business as an industry expert. Remember to include your Awards and Recognition (if you have any) and place it strategically. Add value to your website footer by including your contact details, policies, and other relevant links. Include appropriate CTAs (Call-To-Action) throughout your site so prospective clients can take the necessary steps and hire your services. For example, a 'Contact Us' button or a 'Request a Quote' form can be effective CTAs. 2. Use social media: Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn are great for sharing your projects and engaging with your audience. Create posts regularly to update on services or special offers. Local SEO is mainly about getting listed in local online resources and optimizing your website's and other platforms' online content to reference location-relevant key phrases and regional names rather than generic keywords. Your construction business listing must be consistent across all platforms you use, mainly because changing it later will be challenging (think about logo placement, colors, and font). 3. Register your business on online directories: This will help increase your visibility and attract more local clients. Google Business Profile - This is a free tool for promoting your business profile and website on Google Search and Maps. Even if you don't have a website, your Google business profile is the most crucial resource for local businesses. Claiming and verifying your business's listing will help your efforts appear in local search results. Bing Places - Microsoft's version, which might be less popular, still needs attention. It works the same way, allowing you to claim and verify your business's physical location and have it appear in Bing Maps and on mobile devices running the Windows Phone operating system. Yelp. Yelp is an online urban guide that provides local business listings. It recently replaced the relatively unsuccessful Apple Maps app for iPhones and iPads, and these devices now use data from Yelp to display local information with their included mapping apps. Given the enormous popularity of iPhones, the advantages of getting listed on Yelp should be obvious. 4. Attend industry events: Trade shows, conferences, and networking events are great opportunities to meet potential clients and connect with other professionals in your industry. Remember, networking is about building relationships, not just collecting business cards. Be genuine, be interested in others, and follow up with people after you meet them to continue the conversation. The key here is to stop looking at every person in your networking group as a potential sale. Especially early on, be more concerned about what you can give than what you can get from these meetings. Give materially by sponsoring group events, donating to fundraising, or bringing bagels to the meeting. Give your time and effort by contributing to a service position, or be free with great ideas and a welcoming smile. The long-term value of networking groups lies in building strong trusting relationships that will give you influence beyond the people in your immediate group. 5. Word-of-mouth referrals are the most cost-effective way of gaining new customers because you don't have to spend anything on advertising or marketing. Research has repeatedly shown that referrals have a higher conversion rate (inquiries to sales) and spend more than other customers. People have more confidence in a business recommended by friends or colleagues. Referrals will happen naturally if you provide excellent service and good value, but you can improve your referral rate through an active incentive program. Final thoughts This seems a lot to do, especially if you're single-handedly working and managing your business. But unless your construction company has lots of work stacked up, there will be times when there is nothing to do, and that is the best time to think about Strategic Marketing and following the adage: "Dig your well before you are thirsty." You will only build a loyal client base if you earn your visitors' trust, which is why companies value social proof highly. Proving your construction business's value online takes a unique skill set, but boosting it during your downtime is a great practice.

Get up to speed with the Digital Marketing News and Updates from the week of Mar 06-10, 2023.1. Reddit Shuts down ‘Reddit Talks' & Twitter Is Removing Archive of Recorded Live-Streams - Remember Clubhouse? Clubhouse, at one stage, reached 10 million weekly active users, and had a $1 billion valuation, with many experts proclaiming it as a new paradigm, and the next big thing for social connection. That, predictably, led to copycat features cropping up in every other social app, including Twitter Spaces, Facebook audio rooms, LinkedIn live chats, and many more. But now, almost all of them have been depreciated, deprioritized, or shelved entirely, as interest in social audio continues to wane. And now Reddit Talk, Reddit's own variation of the same, is the latest to be added to social audio scrapheap. Per Reddit, “We have made the difficult decision to sunset the Reddit Talk product in the coming weeks. Hosting Reddit Talks will continue to be available until March 21. The ‘Happening Now' experiment will also wind-down on this date.”In the meantime, Twitter has informed users that it is removing its live video archive ‘soon' as Twitter reviews its storage costs, and looks for more ways to cut down on capacity. There's no mention of audio recordings of live Spaces as yet. But if I were you, I would download and save the data. In a way this makes sense to remove old archive and reduce costs so I am wondering if other platforms will follow suit. Or may be charge a fee to host content after a certain amount of time?2. Page Size Is Not A Ranking Factor - Google's John Mueller said on Twitter, "Page size is not a ranking factor." Meaning Google does not have anything specific signal that says page sizes of X to Y get a ranking boost or decline. Of course, if your page sizes are so big that users, browsers and bots chock on the files, that can be an issue. But finding pages like that are generally rare. Recently, John also said that core web vitals should not be a priority for most small businesses (I covered this on episode#149). John also said previously that CSS size does not generally impact rankings either. #seoMythBusted3. YouTube Discontinues Overlay Ads - Finally after years of bothering the billions of viewers out there, YouTube has announced the removal of Overlay Ads. From April 6, 2023, creators will no longer be able to activate or add “Overlay ads” from within YouTube Studio when accessing monetization options. According to YouTube, the move is in response to feedback from viewers who find these ads disruptive. Overlay ads are known to be less effective than other ad formats, such as pre-roll ads, which play before a video begins. As a result, creators often earn less revenue from overlay ads, despite their videos receiving a high number of viewsSounds like, YouTube staff never consumed content on YouTube and that they had to collect years of data to realize that Overlay Ads are a nuisance. Or does it have to do something about the competition from TikTok and Meta (Instagram/FB)?4. Microsoft Launches Local Search Ads - Microsoft has announced Local Search Ads which are designed to give businesses greater prominence on the local results entity on Bing's search engine results page and Bing Maps on PC. You can use local search ads to promote your products and services to potential customers in the area. Additionally, the ads provide essential business information, such as the company's location, phone number, and hours of operation. This feature is especially useful if you are relying on foot traffic. By providing this information upfront, companies can make it easier for customers to find them and make a purchase. 5. Google Expands Local Service Ads to Five More Categories - Google has announced an expansion of its Local Services Ads offering, which enables businesses to better highlight their services in local queries. With Local Services Ads, you can advertise your services at the top of Google Search results pages and receive phone calls, messages and appointment bookings in the areas you choose. Google originally launched Local Services Ads with home service businesses, but now, more than 70 types of service area and storefront businesses are eligible for these promotions. The five new Local Service ad categories are: Education, People Care, Pet Care, Wellness and Health Care.6. Google Ads Rolled Out Performance Max For Hotels - Google is rolling out Performance Max for travel goals to all hotel advertisers over the next few weeks. Performance Max for travel goals creates ads in multiple formats that will automatically serve across Google channels and inventory, including Google Maps, Search, YouTube and Hotel Ads (coming later this year). During campaign setup, just pick your hotel properties from a map using their hotel picker tool. Then it'll pre-populate ads for your hotel — including creative elements like copy, images and URLs — in every format. You can edit any of these pre-populated assets or upload your own instead.In the announcement, Google shared that advertisers who use Performance Max achieve on average over 18% more conversions at a similar cost per action. And searches for "book a flight" has grown more than 70% in 2022. The question to Google, what are the stats for hotel search volume? That will be a better representation of a demand vs pulling the “book a flight” data since there is this thing called “AirBnb”.7. TikTok Enters The Search Ads Market Even Though It Is Inching Towards A US Ban - TikTok has added another handy research tool for marketers, with a new ‘Keyword Insights' element in its Creative Center, which enables you to find more info on which keywords and phrases are resonating best in TikTok ads.TikTok's search ads platform will allow businesses to bid on specific keywords and phrases related to their products or services, just like they would on Google. However, TikTok's platform will likely offer some unique features and targeting options that Google does not. For example, TikTok's platform may offer more robust audience targeting options, allowing advertisers to reach users based on their interests, behaviors, and demographics. This could make TikTok's platform more appealing to advertisers looking to reach specific audiences. However, it has a long way to go before it can take the crown away from Google. After all, you can not use TikTok to get directions (Google maps or Apple maps). Nevertheless, competition is good. Also TikTok faces potential bans in the US and Europe after an investigation found them spying on journalists and due to concerns around its exposure to the Chinese Community Party (CCP). So I would hold off from deleting my Google Ads Account if I were you. #JustSaying.

Thu 7/14, 2022, 7:30pm Blaise Agüera y Arcas and Melanie Mitchell with Lili Cheng How Close Are We to AI? BUY THE BOOKS Ubi SuntBy Blaise Agüera y Arcas Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking HumansBy Melanie Mitchell Artificial Intelligence (AI), a term first coined at a Dartmouth workshop in 1956, has seen several boom and bust cycles over the last 66 years. Is the current boom different? The most exciting advance in the field since 2017 has been the development of “Large Language Models,” giant neural networks trained on massive databases of text on the web. Still highly experimental, Large Language Models haven't yet been deployed at scale in any consumer product — smart/voice assistants like Alexa, Siri, Cortana, or the Google Assistant are still based on earlier, more scripted approaches. Large Language Models do far better at routine tasks involving language processing than their predecessors. Although not always reliable, they can give a strong impression of really understanding us and holding up their end of an open-ended dialog. Unlike previous forms of AI, which could only perform specific jobs involving rote perception, classification, or judgment, Large Language Models seem to be capable of a lot more — including possibly passing the Turing Test, named after computing pioneer Alan Turing's thought experiment that posits when an AI in a chat can't be distinguished reliably from a human, it will have achieved general intelligence. But can Large Language Models really understand anything, or are they just mimicking the superficial “form” of language? What can we say about our progress toward creating real intelligence in a machine? What do “intelligence” and “understanding” even mean? Blaise Agüera y Arcas, a Fellow at Google Research, and Melanie Mitchell, the Davis Professor of Complexity at the Santa Fe Institute, take on these thorny questions in a wide-ranging presentation and discussion. The discussion will be moderated by Lili Cheng, Corporate Vice President of the Microsoft AI and Research division. Blaise Agüera y Arcas is a VP and Fellow at Google Research, where he leads an organization working on basic research and new products in Artificial Intelligence. His team focuses on the intersection of machine learning and devices, developing AI that augments humanity while preserving privacy. One of the team's technical contributions is Federated Learning, an approach to training neural networks in a distributed setting that avoids sending user data off-device. Blaise also founded Google's Artists and Machine Intelligence program and has been an active participant in cross-disciplinary dialogs about AI and ethics, fairness and bias, policy, and risk. He has given TED talks on Seadragon and Photosynth (2007, 2012), Bing Maps (2010), and machine creativity (2016). In 2008, he was awarded MIT's TR35 prize. Melanie Mitchell is the Davis Professor at the Santa Fe Institute. Her current research focuses on conceptual abstraction, analogy-making, and visual recognition in artificial intelligence systems. Melanie is the author or editor of six books and numerous scholarly papers in the fields of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and complex systems. Her book Complexity: A Guided Tour won the 2010 Phi Beta Kappa Science Book Award and was named by Amazon.com as one of the ten best science books of 2009. Her latest book is Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking Humans. Lili Cheng is a Corporate Vice President of the Microsoft AI and Research division, responsible for the AI developer platform which includes Cognitive Services and Bot Framework. Prior to Microsoft, Lili worked in Apple Computer's Advanced Technology Group on the user interface research team where she focused on QuickTime Conferencing and QuickTime VR. Lili is also a registered architect, having worked in Tokyo and Los Angeles for Nihon Sekkei and Skidmore Owings and Merrill on commercial urban design and large-scale building projects.

1. Instagram Enables Likes On Stories - Instagram has added a new, simple way for users to engage with Stories content with Stories likes, which enables you to ‘like' any Story in your feed, and let the creator know, without having to start up a DM conversation.Stories likes are not public, and only the creator will be able to see them. Creators will be able to view their Story likes in their Story insights, with a small heart icon added next to the viewers' name in the view listing.Stories likes will not come through as a DM, so you're not suddenly going to get an influx of DMs as people use the function to react to your Stories. To be clear, Instagram hasn't indicated that this is or will be a ranking factor at this stage. But you would assume that with another means of direct insight, Instagram will look at how it could utilize such to improve each users' experience, by showing them more of what they literally like.2. Snapchat Will Enable Top Creators to Insert Mid-Roll Ads into Their Stories - Snapchat's adding another new monetization opportunity for Snap creators, with mid-roll ads for Snap Star Stories, providing a directly attributable revenue pathway for the app's biggest stars. As explained by Snap, soon, Snap creators will be able to switch on ads within their Stories, with a cut of any revenue generated by those ads then allocated back to the creator. Though the specific revenue cut here is not entirely transparent – according to Snap, the revenue share from these ads will be based on its proprietary payment formula, “which may include a number of factors such as posting frequency and audience engagement”.3. Microsoft Advertising Expands to 29 New Countries - Microsoft announced the expansion of Microsoft Advertising in 29 new countries. This expansion goes across Europe and Africa, with a reach to 19 new languages. Microsoft estimates this brings the reach of the ad network to 41 million consumers, making 400 million searches each month on Microsoft and partner sites.The following markets are live and ready for you to upload your Microsoft Advertising ads: Albania, Andorra, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Latvia, Lichtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Turkey, and the Vatican City.You can learn more about the expansion on the Microsoft blog.4. Smart Pages, Microsoft's Free Site Builder, is Now Available to US-based SMBs - Microsoft first launched Smart Pages, Microsoft's free website building service, in February 2021. Until now, businesses that were interested in the service had to sign up for the closed beta. In October 2021, Microsoft announced the website builder's first round of feature updates, which included an analytics dashboard and the ability to create a Smart Page from directly within a Bing Places account. Starting Feb 16, 22, Smart Pages, is available to all US-based small and medium-sized businesses. Microsoft has also added new features to the service, including video embeds, text suggestions, integration with Bing Maps, and an updated Social Posts section.Far too many SMBs operate with just a social media profile or a local listing as their only online presence. Having your own website opens up more opportunities to connect with potential customers and drive both online and in-store traffic. Now that this service is more widely available, more business owners can use it to establish a basic website for free. And, the new features, particularly the video embeds and Bing Maps integration, can be used to improve the user experience while providing relevant business information.5. Meta Provides New Recommendations to Help Advertisers Lessen the Impacts of Apple's ATT Update - Meta has published some new recommendations to help advertisers maintain their data flows, and improve the performance of their campaigns.First off, Meta says that advertisers should integrate with the Conversions API, which will provide more insight into consumer pathways.Meta also recommends that advertisers verify all of their domains, especially for brands looking to track performance across multiple websites, while it also says that businesses should ensure that their conversion events are aligned with their campaign priorities.Meta also recommends that brands allow some time before analyzing campaign performance, due to delayed data and modeled reporting (Meta recommends giving conversion-optimized campaigns at least 72 hours), while for App Conversion campaigns, it also recommends that brands use a 24-hour conversion window to help its ad systems optimize “for the fastest and most predictable feedback cycles”. Meta also says that its machine learning ad recommendation and audience tools are improving, which can help to limit the impacts.Meta also suggests showing your ads across 6 or more Placements – “like on Facebook Marketplace or in Instagram Stories”, which can give its system more flexibility to control costs and generate better results.6. YouTube Adds New Shorts Shelf in Channel Listings - YouTube continues to make Shorts a bigger focus, with a new addition on the desktop version of YouTube channel pages that will display each channel's Shorts clips (where available) in a separate element.Now, when a channel has uploaded Shorts, they'll be displayed in a separate section, giving Shorts content a more specific focus, and likely driving more viewers, which could also make Shorts a more critical promotional element.This is in line with usage trends, and engagement around short video clips. Indeed, YouTube recently reported that Shorts clips have cumulatively amassed over 5 trillion views thus far, and with Shorts catching on in India in particular, it makes sense for YouTube to lean into the format where it can, and help its creators boost their channel performance via the format.7. YouTube Rolls Out New Metadata For Educational Videos - YouTube is bringing additional metadata to English language videos that are educational in nature. Videos can be marked as educational during the upload flow via a drop-down menu where you can select a category. Selecting Education as a video category will grant access to a new set of metadata you can use to describe the content. The new metadata fields include: Type of video Academic system Education level Exam, course, or standard Each of these fields is optional. You can utilize some, all, or none of them during the upload process. This is an important update for YouTube channels because, in the future, this metadata will be added to YouTube's search results to help viewers decide whether the content meets their needs.8. Google: Good Core Web Vitals Scores Won't Improve Indexing - Having good Core Web Vitals scores won't necessarily lead to improved indexing of your webpages in Google's search results. This is stated by Google's Search Advocate John Mueller during a recent Google Search Central SEO office-hours hangout.As per Mueller, “the Core Web Vitals kind of plays into the Page Experience ranking factor — and that's more of a ranking factor. That's not a quality factor. And in particular, it doesn't play in with how much we actually crawl and index from the website. In some cases, there is a little bit of a relationship between how fast the page is and how fast we can crawl it, but it doesn't have to be that way. So that's something where usually these sides are less connected and not completely tied together.”9. Google: More Content Does Not Mean More Traffic - Google's John Mueller said on Twitter "more content definitely does not mean more traffic." Meaning, writing more content does not always translate to more traffic, especially from Google Search.I can relate, creating more content, does not always translate to more traffic. Sometimes sites push out bad or spammy content and that won't always lead to more traffic. But in general, if you write quality and useful content often, it is more likely that you can produce more traffic from more content. Not always but often. John Mueller has said this before, saying Just putting out more content doesn't necessarily make a site better. He also said content frequency is not a ranking factor.10. 15% Of Search Queries On Google Are Still New - Here is a not-new piece of data, 15% of the searches Google sees each day are new. Google shared this stat, again, on Twitter the other day saying "Fun fact: 15% of all Google searches have never been searched before."Just some history on this stat, in 2007, 25% of all queries that searchers entered into the Google search box was never seen by Google before. That figure changed to 15% in 2013 and has remained at that figure according to Google even through today. Last I covered it was about two years ago in 2020, Google reconfirmed the 15% figure in 2017 and 2018 and now again in 2022.11. Google Ads Announces 3 Changes to Automated Extensions - Google Ads rolled out three updates to automated ad extensions. Here's what's new. Automated extensions will be eligible to show alongside your manually added extensions. This change will roll out sometime in mid-March. The ad extensions that will be eligible to show in tandem with manual extensions include Sitelinks, Callouts, and Structured snippets. This change to automated extensions eligibility helps your ad take up more real estate on the SERP. Previously, the automated extensions above weren't eligible to show when manual extensions were created. What were the implications of this? For example, if your ads had two manual site link extensions created, your ad would only be eligible to show those manual extensions. With this update, your ad would now be able to show your two manual extensions, as well as automated extensions, at the same time. Keep in mind, your account has to have opted into automated extensions in order to show. In addition to the automated extensions eligibility, Google is making updates to reporting capabilities. Reporting will now be viewable at an individual level in the Extensions page of Google Ads. At this individual level, you're able to pause or remove any automated extension. This allows for easier management of your campaigns. You'll also be able to easily identify which extensions were created manually, or automatically created by Google. Manual Extension Viewability - Google already allows you to create extensions at a more granular level (account, campaign, or ad group). However, the more granular these extensions were created, these would prevent extensions created at a higher level to be ineligible to serve. Campaign or account-level extensions are eligible to show in your ads if they are predicted to improve performance. Predicted performance improvement comes from Google's machine learning algorithm. If you have created hyper-specific ad extensions at the ad group level, it's a good idea to review any campaign or account-level extensions that may be eligible to show in your ads. If there are any extensions not relevant to those ad groups, you will want to reorganize them in a way that makes sense for your account. 12. New Google Ads Destination Not Accessible Policy - Google Ads announced it is adding a new "destination not accessible" policy under the Google destination requirements policy. Google is also making changes and clarifications to the document overall. Google said the changes go into enforcement on March 21, 2022. The new independent destination not accessible policy is part of the overall Destination Requirements category for ads related to a destination's access limitation. Google said that this policy will also "provide self-service appeals management for advertisers." These include pages that lead to error messages such as "This site is not accessible in your location" or "down for maintenance" that were previously enforced under the "Destination not working" policy. The new policy language will say "Not allowed Destinations that are not accessible in the targeted location."13. Like Apple, Google Will Limit Sharing of User Data with Third Parties - Google announced that it will be bringing Privacy Sandbox to Android with the goal of introducing new, more private advertising solutions. Privacy Sandbox is an existing initiative by Google to better protect users' private data. These solutions will limit sharing of user data with third parties and operate without cross-app identifiers, including advertising ID.14. Google Confirms Standard Shopping Campaigns Will Remain Available - Google confirms Standard Shopping campaigns will remain available. This will come as a relief to advertisers that still rely on Standard Shopping's manual controls and capabilities — especially as Google Ads continues to release more automated products. Standard Shopping campaigns offer a set of capabilities, controls, and data that many advertisers rely on, and knowing that they'll continue to be available will come as a relief, especially since Google has been taking away manual controls in so many areas.15. Performance Max Will Absorb Smart Shopping and Local Campaigns - Performance Max is set to absorb Smart Shopping campaigns this summer. Local campaigns will also be rolled into Performance Max sometime between August and September. Once that occurs, advertisers will no longer be able to create new Smart Shopping or Local campaigns. To facilitate the transition, Google Ads will offer a self-service tool for advertisers that want to move their campaigns over to Performance Max ahead of the transition window, which could give them more time for testing. The tool will be available for Smart Shopping campaigns starting in April, with support for Local campaigns starting in June.16. Google Ads Needs At Least 15 Conversion In 30 Days For Machine Learning To Work Better - Ginny Marvin, the Google Ads Liaison, confirmed some time ago that for the Google Ads machine learning models to work faster (and probably better) Google would need a minimum of 15 conversions in the last 30 days. She added that you really need 50 to 100 conversions if you want machine learning to outperform manual strategies.17. Google Ads Shares Top 3 Priorities for 2022 - Jerry Dischler Vice President / General Manager, Google Ads shared his top three priorities for 2022: automation, measurement, and privacy.1. New Opportunities With Automation - Under the Automation pillar, Google is emphasizing the use of Performance Max and Discovery campaign types. Both campaign types focus on reaching users at scale from a single campaign. Google touts the benefits of these campaigns to include: More simplicity in management (fewer campaigns) Multi-channel reach Greater ad inventory Incremental conversions 2. The Future Of Measurement - It's no secret that measurement has been a challenging topic for most advertisers. With the iOS 14 update, the future removal of third-party cookies, and more – new approaches to measurement will be critical for success. Without meaningful results and data to back up your marketing efforts, it's going to be harder to prove the value of marketing. Google is rolling out new solutions to privacy and measurement including: Enhanced conversions Consent mode Conversion modeling Data-driven attribution 3. Delivering Expectations For Digital Privacy - It's difficult these days to go without hearing of some sort of privacy breach. Google understands the increasing need for user privacy and controls. While you need to build and cultivate relationships with your customers, they need to know that their data is safe and maintain some level of anonymity. Google has updated its privacy playbook to capture these needs both from the advertiser and user perspective. The three main highlights of this playbook include: Building direct relationships with customers Ensuring measurement remains accurate and actionable Keep your ads relevant In building direct relationships with customers, you're able to capture first-party data for more 1:1 direct communication, such as email marketing or in-app messaging.What does this mean for advertisers?While we are all used to relying on paid media to drive the final sale and showing direct ROI, the role of paid media may need to change. For example, the goal of some of your non-branded or awareness efforts should shift to capturing first-party data, instead of the final sale.If you're able to capture that first-party data on the first touch, you would be able to attribute a final sale back to that original touchpoint. Just remember to shift your attribution modeling to reflect changes in strategy.

Contractor Success Map with Randal DeHart | Contractor Bookkeeping And Accounting Services
This Podcast Is Episode Number 420, And It's About Optimizing Your Construction Business Website for Local Searches For most construction businesses, increasing sales during this time will be very beneficial and may provide some much-needed cash flow relief. Local search engine optimization (SEO) is an integral part of any online marketing strategy for traditional businesses which serve a specific geographical area. Local SEO works in much the same way as standard SEO, although some significant differences are considered. Taking the time and trouble to optimize your website for local is essential since about a fifth of desktop queries and more than half of mobile searches have local intent. To capitalize on this fact, you'll need to make sure that your website appears in local searches. Fortunately, local SEO is somewhat more straightforward than regular SEO, which is significant because it is less competitive. The first step to optimize for local searches is to include your regional keywords, such as the name of your town or city or any other areas which your business services, in the following areas of your website: Your website URLs (particularly for landing pages) Page titles Meta titles and descriptions h1 and h2 HTML heading tags Throughout the content of your site, provided it is relevant and done sparingly Any local business should also have a footer that appears on every page of their website. The footer should contain your address, postal code, and phone number. All information must be identical to any other online listings you have either on social networks or local directories. You should also provide a link to your Google Local listing. Another critical element of local SEO is to have appropriate landing pages. Your landing pages should include keywords and phrases referring to your business's location or service area - be careful not to overdo it since Google will penalize sites for over-optimization. Construction businesses with multiple service areas should ideally have separate landing pages for each one so that people will still find you in Google when carrying out local searches. Each of your landing pages should provide relevant content, including information specific to the particular service area it applies to. Other Online Resources for Local SEO Optimizing your website is only one part of the local SEO process. There are many other critical online resources which businesses should use to increase traffic and raise awareness. The most important ones, which any local company should use, include the following: Google My Business (GMB). It is a free tool that allows you to promote your business profile and business website on Google Search and Maps. Even if you don't have your website, the most crucial resource for local businesses is GMB. Claiming and verifying your business's listing on GMB will help enormously in your efforts to appear in local search results. Bing Places. Microsoft's version of GMB might not be as popular, but it is still too important to ignore. It works in much the same way, allowing you to claim and verify your business's physical location and have it appear in Bing Maps and on mobile devices running the Windows Phone operating system. Yelp. Yelp is an online urban guide providing local business listings. Yelp recently replaced the relatively unsuccessful Apple Maps app for iPhones and iPads, and these devices now use data from Yelp to display local information with their included mapping apps. Given the enormous popularity of iPhones, the advantages of getting listed on Yelp should be obvious. Foursquare. The number one location-based social media website, Foursquare, allows users to find local businesses quickly and 'check in' to specific locations. Setting up a profile on Foursquare is a quick and straightforward process that will also help you in your local SEO efforts. Local SEO is mainly about getting listed in local online resources and optimizing your online content both on your website and other platforms, in such a way that it makes references to location-relevant key phrases and regional names rather than using generic keywords. Your construction business listing must be entirely consistent across all of the platforms you use, particularly since it won't be easy or practical to change them later on. (Related Blog post here) Final thoughts Everyone is trying to get more value for the money they spent in their business. Invest your marketing dollars wisely by optimizing your website to appear first on the local search engine page.

Hoy estaré hablando de cómo jugar Microsoft Flight Simulator para PC y que sería una buena idea traer esta versión al Xbox One ó a la nueva consola de Microsoft.La nueva versión de Flight Simulator de Microsoft, lanzada el 18 de agosto de 2020, fue uno de los juegos más esperados del año. Y mientras el juego dividió a la audiencia, unos elogiando sus gráficos y otros ridiculizando los fallos y el bajo rendimiento, la pregunta más importante para nosotros es: ¿qué tan bueno es un simulador?La mayor innovación, que distingue la versión 2020 de Flight Simulator de Flight Simulator X de hace una década, fue la capacidad del juego para construir un mundo fotorrealista utilizando datos de fotogrametría de alta resolución proporcionados por Bing Maps.El motor del juego, construido por French Asobo Studio, cuenta con un sistema de inteligencia artificial que puede interpretar los datos del mapa y reconstruir el terreno y los edificios de todo el mundo, en tiempo real, frente a tus ojos.Si bien es un logro indiscutiblemente innovador, tiene una serie de desventajas. Uno de ellos es que, bueno, la IA es una IA, y si bien puede lograr algunos cálculos impresionantes, su percepción y, lo que es más importante, su capacidad para interpretar las cosas todavía está por detrás de los humanos.Así es como algunas ciudades terminaron con rascacielos donde no los había, y monstruosidades indescriptibles en lugar de árboles y autos en la calle.=====Apple se disculpa con WordPress, el viernes, Internet estalló en pequeña medida al enterarse de que Apple había obligado con éxito a WordPress a monetizar su aplicación gratuita, lo que lo obligó a vender planes premium y nombres de dominio personalizados aparentemente solo para que Apple pudiera obtener su tradicional recorte del 30 por ciento.Pero una tarde y una noche de sorpresa e indignación después, Apple retrocede. La compañía está emitiendo una rara disculpa oficial, y dice que WordPress ya no tendrá que agregar compras dentro de la aplicación ahora que todo está dicho y hecho.Aquí está la declaración completa de Apple:Creemos que el problema con la aplicación de WordPress se ha resuelto. Dado que el desarrollador eliminó la visualización de sus opciones de pago de servicio de la aplicación, ahora es una aplicación independiente y gratuita y no tiene que ofrecer compras dentro de la aplicación. Hemos informado al desarrollador y nos disculpamos por cualquier confusión que hayamos causado.Notarás que Apple está posicionando esto como el desarrollador, WordPress, después de haber hecho lo correcto y haber eliminado la "visualización de sus opciones de pago de servicio de la aplicación", y que yo sepa, eso es técnicamente cierto. Pero hasta donde yo sé, eso no sucedió hoy: sucedió hace semanas o meses.► Micrófono Movo VSM-7https://bit.ly/2CS3Ngx (oficial)https://amzn.to/34rgV7m (Amazon)► MOVO Photo - Accesorios para celularhttps://bit.ly/36GfsJP► ¡No olvides de suscribirte!YouTube: https://bit.ly/2y1aU3y► NordVPN Protege tu Privacidad y Seguridad70% descuento en NordVPN + 1 Mes Gratishttps://nordvpn.org/tendenciastechPalabra clave: TendenciasTech► Donaciones PayPal - Patreonhttps://www.paypal.me/tendenciastechhttps://www.patreon.com/tendenciastech► Redes SocialesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TendenciasTechTwitter: https://twitter.com/tendenciastechInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tendenciastechMixer: https://mixer.com/TendenciasTechTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tendenciastechPeriscope: https://www.pscp.tv/TendenciasTech► PodcastAlojar tu Podcast (Acast): https://bit.ly/2D9TNPJApple: http://apple.co/2CtwnidGoogle: http://bit.ly/2lQHnDaSpotify: https://spoti.fi/2lJKPzyCastBox: https://bit.ly/33jyB4e► Contacto (English - Español)tendenciastech@outlook.com#Podcast #Tecnología #MicrosoftFlightSimulatorSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/tendenciastech.

You need maps on a website like you need butter on toast. I really struggle to think of too many projects that I've built where the client did not want a maps show there business location. It might be that you can get away with a simple Google maps embed, but what if you want something more complex? Well, there's a plugin for that called MapsMarker and it's the topic of the podcast today. Robert Harm, the plugin developer is here to tell us all about it, and when I say 'all', there's honestly a lot to say. This plugin can do lots! Listen to the podcast to find out what...

Bing Launches Hotel AdsAfter one year of beta, Bing launched its version of Hotel Ads, “designed to showcase real-time room rates to potential customers on the Bing search results pages and within Bing Maps.” Not dissimilarly to Google’s HPA, Bing Hotel Ads are CPC-based (percentage of room price or fixed bid). In terms of campaign sophistication, at this stage, you can only optimize by device-type. However, more multipliers will be integrated in the future. According to Statista, Bing has around 5.3% of market share, mainly in the U.S.

In der 14. Episode des VRODO_Cast, dem deutschsprachigen Podcast über Virtual Reality und Augmented Reality, entdecken wir die Welt mit HTC Vive und Hololens. Ohne große Vorankündigung veröffentlichte Google in dieser Woche Earth VR für HTC Vive. Die virtuelle Entdeckung der Welt ist zweifelsohne eine der eindrucksvollsten VR-Erfahrungen, die man derzeit machen kann und vielleicht die erste "Killer-App" - wenn man den Begriff so interpretiert, dass es eine App ist, die sehr wahrscheinlich jeden Nutzer aus den Socken haut. Grund genug für uns, den Großteil des Podcasts Googles virtueller Version unseres Planeten zu widmen. [vr_embed url=https://vrodo.de/google-earth-vr-fuer-htc-vive-ihr-wolltet-eine-killer-app-hier-habt-ihr-sie/] Unser Hololens-Fanboy Tobias erzählt außerdem über Holomaps, einer mit Earth VR vergleichbaren Anwendung, die mit Microsofts Augmented-Reality-Brille läuft. Die Anwendung greift auf die Daten von Bing-Maps zu. Ein ausführliches Hands-on mit Bildern und Videos gibt es ergänzend in Tobias' Blog. Außerdem in Episode 14: Wir diskutieren das Marktpotenzial von Daten- und Videobrillen, die keine ausgereiften Augmented-Reality-Features wie Hololens und Co. integriert haben, sondern wie ein tragbares Smartphone funktionieren. Sven besitzt seit einigen Tagen eine Playstation Pro und erzählt zum Einstieg, wie er die Unterschiede wahrnimmt zwischen herkömmlicher PS4 und dem Upgrade speziell für Playstation VR. Aus seiner Sicht lohnt sich die Anschaffung für Besitzer der Sony-Brille durchaus; seine Gründe nennt er im Cast. Viel Spaß damit!

Noah Sussman knows a bit about bringing Dev-Ops to fruition at a variety of organizations. To that end, we asked him to come join us and tell us a bit about what Dev-Ops is, and what it isn’t. We also discuss the ways that testers can develop their skills and become more technical (hint: it’s not as difficult as many may think, but it will require work and interaction with others to really be successful at it). Also, how does Bing Maps manage to put Melbourne, Australia in the Ocean somewhere near Japan? Resource by QualiTest Group

Gastheer Maarten Hendrikx, @maartenhendrikx op Twitter. Panel Stefaan Lesage, @stefaanlesage op Twitter, of via de Devia website. Marco Frissen, @marcofrissen op Twitter, of via zijn website. Jan Seurinck, @janseurinck op Twitter, of via zijn website. Onderwerpen Deze aflevering werd voor de allereerste keer live gestreamd via Ustream. Kom zeker meeluisteren en meepraten via de chatroom op dinsdag 6 april vanaf 21u Google leidt vanaf vandaag zijn Chinese bezoekers om via zijn website in Hongkong. Wie vandaag google.cn intikt in zijn browser, wordt omgeleid naar google.hk. De zoekresultaten worden wel nog gefilterd door de Chinese overheid, maar nu dus niet meer door Google zelf. (Google stop met censuur in China) Twitter heeft vorige week de geolocatiefunctie - die al sinds november in de API zat - ook effectief geactiveerd op de Twitter.com website. Ze deden dat naar aanleiding van het interactief festival South by Southwest dat ieder jaar in Austin, Texas wordt georganiseerd. Ook Facebook zou binnenkort het locatie-slagveld betreden. (Twitter Turns on “Tweet Your Location”, Mapping Tweets on Twitter.com, Those Facebook QR Codes Are Part Of Their Location Plans) Eveneens vorige week kondigde Twitter @anywhere aan. @anywhere maakt het mogelijk om Twitter te integreren in een website, nog meer dan nu al het geval is. En dat met maar een paar lijntjes Javascript. Overal Twitter dus. (Twitter Blog: @anywhere) Cisco heeft een nieuwe router ontwikkeld die snelheden tot 322 Terabits per seconde kan halen. (Cisco's Epic Announcement That Will "Change The Internet Forever") De eerste iPhone 4.0 geruchten zijn er! (Apple's iPhone 4.0 software to deliver multitasking support, Video: 'Apple lanceert nieuwe streaming versie iTunes') Jan heeft gespeeld met Chatroulette en deelt zijn ervaringen. (Chatroulette, een ervaringsverslag) Tips Marco's tip is niet zozeer tech-gerelateerd, maar eerder een werkwijze. Marco gebruikt Field Notes om notities te nemen en hij vertelt over een manier om met behulp van een scanner die Field Notes in Evernote te importeren. Met de handschriftherkenning van Evernote wordt het dan mogelijk om die handgeschreven notities te doorzoeken. Marco gebruikt voor zijn 'scanwerk' deze scanner. Stefaan vertelt over de Mifi, een draagbare router die je kan gebruiken om verbinding te krijgen met het internet via 3G, waar je ook bent. Erg handig voor onderweg. Marco is trouwens sinds vorige week de fiere eigenaar van een Mifi en vindt het ding heel handig. Als tweede tip heeft Stefaan het over de Pogoplug, die zonder al te veel gedoe ervoor zorgt dat je pc en je bestanden waar ook ter wereld beschikbaar zijn. Filesharing zonder lastige configuratie van routers en dergelijke. Jan heeft het eerst over Bing Maps en vindt vooral het 'birds-eye' view dat Bing aanbiedt een sterke troef. Daarnaast is hij erg enthousiast over QR-codes, zeg maar streepjescodes die je zelf kan maken. Op de iPhone kan je ze lezen met QR-app (met dank aan @topanga in onze chatroom) en op Android is er deze. Zelf QR-codes maken kan je via deze link. Maartens eerste tip is in verband met Google Wave, alhoewel wij misschien de enige zijn die het nog echt gebruiken. Het is nu mogelijk om een email te krijgen als er een Wave is aangepast of wanneer je bent toegevoegd aan een Wave. Handig wanneer Waves bijvoorbeeld langere tijd niet meer veranderen en dan plots een update krijgen. De link om de notificaties te activeren: https://wave.google.com/wave/?configureNotificationSettings=true, via die link kan je de notificaties opzetten en ook aangeven waar en hoeveel updates je in je emailinbox wil krijgen. De tweede tip is een Android-applicatie. Last.fm is enkel te verkrijgen als een iPhone-applicatie. Je kan dan via WIFI of zelfs via Edge naar Last.fm luisteren (mits je betaalt voor een account wel te verstaan). Nu is er ook een applicatie voor Android die volgens @tiekenei perfect werkt, zelfs op Edge. Te vinden via http://www.csmarshal.com/. Feedback Het Tech45-team apprecieert alle feedback die ingestuurd wordt. Heb je dus opmerkingen, reacties of suggesties, dan zijn deze altijd welkom op reactie@tech45.eu. Ook audio-reacties in .mp3-formaat zijn altijd welkom! Items voor de volgende aflevering kunnen gemarkeerd worden in Delicious met de tag 'tech45-014'.

Main topic: GeoDesign Summit - Part 1. News: Google Maps labs, updates to Bing Maps, and ArcPad.
New Microsoft Bing Map Beta starts today. The new Microsoft Bing Map is loaded with feature. Bing Maps uses Silverlight Technology to give a great 3d views and street level views. If you have Geo tagged photos you can add them to the map and Microsoft Photosynth will stitch them in. Cnet has a demo video here. Microsoft Store Dancing Employees. I know people are trying to think out of the box, but I don't think this dance of the dead is the next great idea. Wanted Reliable Information on the Loch Ness Monster, Big Foot or the Apple Tablet. The Apple Tablet is still changing size, price and features at will. Two weeks ago it was reported that the Apple Tablet would be over two thousand dollars. I like Diggnation's Alex Albrecht quote "I was shocked at how cheap the price point is going to be." We will see, Kevin and Alex are very sharp guys, but the Apple Tablet has fooled the best.
