Sommerpause? In der Google-Welt eher nicht. Diesen Monat kommt einiges zusammen – AI Max, eine neue Briefing-Funktion, eine verschobene DSA-Umstellung, eine lang vermisste Gebotsstrategie im Shopping, automatisch generierte PMax-Videos und eine Änderung an den Gebotsstrategien zum 17. August. So unterschiedlich die Punkte wirken: Sie zeigen in dieselbe Richtung. Google übernimmt mehr Entscheidungen und gleicht dabei immer weniger aus, was in deinem Konto nicht sauber aufgesetzt ist. Wer ein gutes Setup hat, profitiert. Wer eins mit Lücken hat, sieht die Lücken jetzt schneller in den Zahlen. ---- AI Max: hilfreich, aber kein Reparaturwerkzeug • In einigen Konten bringt AI Max inzwischen wirklich sinnvolle zusätzliche Suchbegriffe und Conversions. • Manchmal liegen die Begriffe aber weit weg vom Angebot – der Blick in den Suchbegriffe-Bericht bleibt Pflicht. • Google kündigt eine Briefing-Funktion an: Markenstimme, Regeln, ideale Zielgruppe und Ausschlüsse lassen sich künftig mitgeben. • Wichtig: Schwächen im Setup skalieren mit. KI heilt keine schlechte Kampagne, sie verstärkt sie. ---- DSA: eine Verschnaufpause • Die Zwangsumstellung dynamischer Suchanzeigen auf AI Max ist verschoben. • Neue DSA sind bis Februar 2027 möglich, die Abschaltung beziehungsweise das automatische Upgrade folgt einige Monate später. ---- Shopping und PMax: zwei Updates, die zusammengehören • Standard-Shopping-Kampagnen haben endlich die Gebotsstrategie „Conversion-Wert maximieren" – ab Tag 1 nutzbar, später jederzeit auf Ziel-ROAS umstellbar. • Das ist zugleich ein Signal: Standard Shopping wird so schnell nicht abgeschaltet. • PMax „Feed Only" gibt es faktisch nicht mehr: Google holt sich Bilder aus dem Merchant Center und baut daraus automatisiert Videos. • Prüfen kannst du das in der PMax-Kampagne unter Statistiken und Berichte, dann Kanalleistung – dort siehst du die Verteilung auf Suche, YouTube und die übrigen Netzwerke. ---- Der 17. August: aus dem Richtwert wird ein hartes Ziel Bild aus dem Alltag: Du gibst Vollgas, fährst aber im ersten Gang – und ziehst dabei die Handbremse. Genau so sehen viele Setups aus. • Beispiel: 50 Euro Tagesbudget, 200 Prozent Ziel-ROAS eingestellt, tatsächlich erreicht Google 300 Prozent. • Bisher hat Google das erkannt und den ROAS faktisch verbessert, statt das Ziel wörtlich zu nehmen. • Ab dem 17. August wird das eingestellte Ziel als hartes Ziel verwendet – im ungünstigen Fall werden dieselben 50 Euro mit deutlich höheren Klickpreisen ausgegeben. • Das betrifft Ziel-ROAS und Ziel-CPA gleichermaßen. Eine pauschale Empfehlung gibt es nicht, das hängt am Setup, an der Conversion-Art, -Anzahl und den Werten. ---- Neues Asset: Haftungsausschlüsse • Für Suchanzeigen gibt es jetzt Texthaftungsausschlüsse als Asset, maximal 90 Zeichen. • Sie erscheinen in der ersten verfügbaren Textzeile und überschreiben dort angepinnte Assets. Kompatibel mit AI Max. ---- Alle Updates laufen auf dieselbe Frage hinaus: Ist dein Setup sauber genug, dass mehr Automatisierung für dich arbeitet statt gegen dich? • Suchbegriffe-Bericht regelmäßig prüfen, wenn AI Max aktiv ist. • Bei PMax in die Kanalleistung schauen – läuft dort längst Video, wo du keins geplant hattest? • Vor dem 17. August durch die Kampagnen gehen: Passen Tagesbudget und Zielwert zusammen? Ist dein Zielwert durchgerechnet, gib so viel Budget wie möglich frei. War er nur eine Hilfsgröße zum Anlaufen, entscheide dich: Budget hoch oder Zielwert strenger. Beim Ziel-ROAS heißt strenger: Wert hoch. Beim Ziel-CPA: Wert runter.

Meta ve Google reklam panellerinde "Kampanya Oluştur" yeşil butonuna basmayı herkes biliyor. Hangi tuşun ne işe yaradığını, Advantage+ veya PMax kampanyalarının nasıl kurgulanacağını YouTube'daki on dakikalık ücretsiz bir videoyla bile öğrenebilirsiniz. Panel kullanmak kolaydır; çünkü panel günün sonunda kodlanmış basit bir arayüzdür. Peki, sektördeki e-ticaret markalarının %90'ı neden hala reklam bütçesini çöpe atıyor, neden ROAS ekranlarında sahte illüzyonlarla avunup ay sonunda banka hesabında gerçek bir kârlılık göremiyor?Bu sorunun cevabını, geçtiğimiz günlerde yayınları sıkı takip eden değerli dinleyicimiz Mustafa Altay'dan gelen çok samimi bir itirafla masaya yatırıyoruz. Mustafa'nın sorduğu, aslında bugün milyonlarca lira bütçe yöneten ajansların ve pazarlama direktörlerinin en büyük kanayan yarası: "Abi her şeyi anladım, psikolojiyi ve reklamı anladım ama şu müşteriyi araştırması kısmını, pazardaki müşteriyi anlayıp ona göre reklam çıkma matematiğini bir türlü oturtamıyorum."Filtresiz Dijital'in 97. bölümünde, reklam panelinden önceki o konuşulmayan "Karanlık Bölgeye" dalıyoruz. Altınızdaki araba bir Ferrari bile olsa, navigasyona yanlış adresi girerseniz sadece yanlış yere çok daha hızlı gidersiniz. Bu Bölümde Hangi Ödünsüz Gerçekleri Deşifre Ediyoruz?• Demografik Çöplük ve "Gece 3 Sancısı": Ajansların Excel tablolarına yazdığı "25-45 yaş arası, büyükşehirde yaşayan, yoga yapan kadınlar" gibi içi boş personaların neden birer çöplük olduğunu yüzleşerek konuşuyoruz. İnsanlar yaşlarına veya oturdukları semte göre değil, amigdalalarını tetikleyen acılara göre satın alır. Müşterinizin gece saat 3'te yatağında tavana bakarken hangi problemi yüzünden uyuyamadığını (Gece 3 Sancısı) bulmanın ve ona ürünün özelliğini değil, acısız bir akşamı satmanın formülünü veriyorum.• Dijital İstihbarat ve Rakip Yorumlarını Hacklemek (Review Mining): Masa başında kahve içerek "bence bizim müşteri şunu sever" deme devri bitti. Pazarın lideri olan en dişli 3 rakibinizin Amazon, Trendyol ve Hepsiburada'daki 1 ve 2 yıldızlı yorumlarını nasıl birer istihbarat madenine dönüştüreceğinizi anlatıyorum. Rakiplerinizin lojistik, kumaş veya müşteri hizmetleri zaaflarını alıp, kendi reklam kampanyalarınızda müşteriyi ensesinden yakalayan o yenilmez kancalara (Hook) nasıl çevireceğinizi adım adım gösteriyorum.• Sosyal Dinleme (Social Listening) ile "BS Detector"ü Kapatmak: Anket verilerinin neden her zaman yalan söylediğini, rasyonel ön lob ile duygusal satın alma beyni arasındaki farkı inceliyoruz. Ekşi Sözlük, Reddit ve Kadınlar Kulübü gibi insanların maskelerini çıkardığı platformlara sızarak kitlenin sokak jargonunu nasıl kopyalayacağınızı anlatıyorum. Sizin o plaza dilinizi değil, kendi kelimelerini reklam metninde gören müşterinin zihnindeki "yalan savar" (BS Detector) kalkanını nasıl indireceğinizi deşifre ediyoruz.• Yapay Zekayı Davranışsal Ekonomi Uzmanına Dönüştürmek: ChatGPT veya Claude'u sadece "Instagram metni yaz" diyerek hesap makinesi gibi kullanmayı bırakın. Yüzlerce filtresiz müşteri şikayetini yapay zekaya besleyerek; kitlenin en derin 3 korkusunu, duygusal satın alma tetikleyicilerini ve savunmaya geçtiği kelimeleri saniyeler içinde çıkaran o 2026 model özel "Nöropazarlama Analisti" komutumu (prompt) sizlerle paylaşıyorum.Siz de bu yayını dinledikten sonra e-ticaret sitenizi ve reklam kurgularınızı birer deneme yanılma tahtası olmaktan çıkarıp, salt bir insan psikolojisi ve veri madenciliği matematiğine dönüştürmek istiyorsanız, masadaki parayı rakiplerinize bırakmamak için şu an bu kanalı hemen takip edin ve bildirimleri açın.Bu işin sadece panel boyutunu değil, tüketici psikolojisini ve yapay zeka ile pazar araştırması mimarisini bir meslek olarak en ince detayına kadar öğrenmek istiyorsanız Joy Akademi eğitimlerimize katılın.

Google just announced the biggest change to search in its history — and not everyone is happy. At Google I/O, the search bar became a search box, signaling a full shift toward conversational, Gemini-powered search. The market is already reacting: DuckDuckGo rocketed from around position 400 to the top 100 in the app stores almost overnight, right around the May 20–21 launch. Mike Ryan and Chris unpack what a privacy-and-no-AI search wrapper suddenly surging tells us about consumer appetite — and why the relentless pace of change is exhausting retailers and experts alike.Then: fresh eMarketer data puts the AI advertising hype into much-needed context. AI ad spend in the US sits around $32B in 2026 (roughly a third of Google's search spend), but ~80% of it is just AI-search-adjacent — ads above and below AI Overviews. The chatbot-driven slice everyone is panicking about? Tiny. We dig into why OpenAI's $100B ad ambition looks unrealistic, what the 2030 projections actually say, and why the real takeaway for CMOs and CDOs is: prepare, but don't abandon your bread and butter.The throughline: everything is changing, and everything is staying the same. With limited budget and talent, the retailers who win are the ones who resist FOMO, pick their battles, and keep investing in the core campaigns that still drive the business.In this episode:Why Google's “bar to box” change is its biggest search shift ever — and what it implies about how Google wants you to searchDuckDuckGo's surge from ~position 400 to top 100: a clear sign some consumers find the new box too muchWhy the pace of change may now be too fast even for Google itselfAI Max for Shopping vs. PMax — the strategic misalignment Google may not even seeWhy standard shopping is here to stay (and the comeback we called early)The new eMarketer data: ~$32B AI ad spend in 2026, ~80% of it AI-search-adjacentWhy OpenAI's $100B ad goal and the 2030 chatbot-ad market projections don't line upThe real CMO/CDO playbook: prepare efficiently, beat the FOMO, protect your bread and butterAbout Smarter Ecommerce (smec):Smarter Ecommerce (smec) empowers e-commerce brands with AI-driven PPC automation that optimizes for profit and business outcomes while maintaining strategic control.The platform activates first-party data - profit margins, customer lifetime value, and key business metrics - to automate campaign optimization toward goals like profitability and efficient growth, while detailed campaign insights provide full transparency and enable PPC teams to focus on strategic oversight rather than manual execution.As a Google Premier Partner and three-time Microsoft Retail Partner of the Year, smec manages over €500 million in ad spend and drives €5B+ in annual e-commerce revenue for 350+ global retail clients including THG, Snipes, REWE, and Intersport.Make sure to follow smec - Smarter Ecommerce for more performance marketing insights:smec - Smarter Ecommerce: https://www.smarter-ecommerce.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/smarter-ecommerce-gmbhNewsletter: https://smarter-ecommerce.com/en/newsletter/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/smarterecommerce/

2026 ist das Jahr, in dem AI im E-Commerce vom Buzzword zum echten Wettbewerbsvorteil wird, aber nur für die Shops, die wissen, an welchen Stellen sie wirklich einen Hebel hat. In diesem Vortrag zeigt Dr. Sebastian Decker, wie Onlineshops einen AI-gestützten Stack aus Google Full-Funnel-Kampagnen, intelligenten Funnels und Offerpages aufbauen, der bei niedrigen CPCs gleichzeitig AOVs deutlich erhöht und Conversion-Rates planbar nach oben zieht. Das Ergebnis: ein besserer ROAS und POAS, und das nicht nur über PMax, sondern auch über YouTube- und Display-Kampagnen für Onlineshops. Grundlage ist die Erfahrung aus über 300 Shop-Projekten und Multimillionen € an monatlichem Adspend bei EVOLVE Digital. Du bekommst kein theoretisches Modell, sondern konkrete Frameworks: Wie du Demand Gen vom Test- zum Profit-Channel entwickelst, wie du informative Keywords mit 8 %+ CVR und 5er-ROAS erschließt und wie du den Traffic auf eine hochkonvertierende Landingpage führst, mit der du deinen aktuellen AOV um 30 bis 100 % und deine Conversion Rate um bis zu 100 % schlagen kannst. Folgendes hast Du nach dem Webinar gelernt: - Wie du als Onlineshop Google zum größten Neukundenakquisitionskanal machst und damit Meta schlägst - Welche Landingpage- und Offerpage-Typen für deine Branche funktionieren - Wo AI in der Konzeption von Angeboten, Offerpages und Funnels einen 5–10x Speed-Vorteil bringt — und wo sie Conversion zerstört - Wie du Angebote psychologisch so konstruierst, dass AOV, CVR und DB2 in deinem Shop gleichzeitig steigen - Welches Setup aus Kampagnen, Angeboten und Landingpages bei 4–5-stelligen Tages-Adspends stabil skalieren Zielgruppe: - Onlinehändler und D2C-Brands zwischen 1 – 30 Mio.

Google just dropped a PMax special — and there's a lot to unpack.In this episode of Growing Ecommerce, Mike Ryan and Chris break down three major updates reshaping how ecommerce advertisers run Performance Max and Shopping campaigns in 2025:1. Network exclusions for PMax: You can now opt out of Search Partner Network AND Google Display Network directly inside PMax. Years in the making, and a massive lever for both performance and brand safety. We walk through why it matters, when to use it, and how to check your own data first.2. Shopping Performance View: A new level of product-level reporting coming to PMax and Demand Gen campaigns via the Google Ads API. See performance by brand, category, product type, and item ID — the same parity you get in standard Shopping. Huge for anyone who's tried and failed to understand feed performance inside Max.3. AI Max for Shopping: The biggest one. Google is rolling out an optional AI layer for standard Shopping campaigns with three features:- Text customization: Google rewrites your product titles dynamically per query- Final URL expansion (FUE): Google picks landing pages from your site — including category pages- Optimal format selection: Text ads can now appear inside your Shopping campaignsWe discuss what this means for advertisers who run standard Shopping for control, whether there's real redundancy with Search and PMax, the campaign overlap and CPC escalation risk, and why Mike thinks this is actually bigger than AI Max for Search.Standard Shopping: confirmed not dead.

Viele Unternehmen setzen auf Performance Max, weil es modern klingt: Automatisierung, KI, maximale Leistung. Doch genau diese Kampagne verbrennt schnell Geld, wenn sie ohne sauberes Tracking, genug Daten und klare Kontrolle eingesetzt wird. ---- Warum PMax so oft falsch eingesetzt wird - Google empfiehlt Performance Max sehr offensiv - Viele Dienstleister nutzen PMax als schnelle Standardlösung - Der Name klingt nach maximaler Leistung, auch wenn die Voraussetzungen fehlen - Das Problem ist nicht PMax selbst, sondern der falsche Einsatz ---- Die 3 Grundlagen, ohne die PMax kaum funktionieren kann - Sauberes Conversion Tracking: Google muss das richtige Ziel sehen - Genug Conversion-Volumen: 20 Conversions pro Monat sind Minimum, 50 besser - Primäre Conversions müssen echte Ziele sein: Kauf, Anfrage, Termin oder Umsatz - Seitenaufrufe oder Kontaktseitenbesuche sind keine saubere Optimierungsbasis ---- Typische Fehler in Performance Max Kampagnen - Remarketing wird als Assetgruppe angelegt, obwohl Assetgruppen keine echten Zielgruppen sind - Wichtige Conversion-Ziele stehen auf sekundär statt primär - Markenbegriffe werden nicht ausgeschlossen - Die Kampagne optimiert auf Brand-Suchanfragen und sieht dadurch besser aus, als sie ist - Irrelevante Suchbegriffe, YouTube-Kanäle oder Apps werden nicht ausgeschlossen ---- Wann PMax sinnvoll sein kann und wann nicht - Sinnvoller bei hohem Budget und vielen sauberen Conversions - Schwieriger bei kleinen Budgets, B2B-Nischen und spezialisierten Angeboten - Für Online-Shops ist Shopping oft besser steuerbar - Für viele KMU sind sauber aufgesetzte Suchkampagnen oft der bessere Start ---- Prüfe dein Google Ads Konto - Gibt es überhaupt eine Performance Max Kampagne? - Sind Assetgruppen wie Remarketing oder Retargeting angelegt? - Welche Conversion-Ziele stehen wirklich in der Conversion-Spalte? - Kommen Markenbegriffe oder irrelevante Suchbegriffe vor? - Gibt es ausgeschlossene Keywords? - Wird auf echte Umsätze oder nur auf schwache Zwischenziele optimiert? ---- PMax ist kein schlechtes Tool, aber auch keine Wunderlösung. Nutze Performance Max nur, wenn Tracking, Conversion-Daten, Budget und Zielsetzung sauber aufgebaut sind. Wenn dein Geschäft nicht Standard ist, sollte auch deine Google Ads Strategie keine Standardlösung sein.

Episode description In this episode of Next in Media, Mike Shields sits down with Kristina Canada, CMO at Net Conversion, a 19-year-old independent marketing and analytics agency based in Orlando that's in the middle of a serious growth push — with a new Chicago office, a recent acquisition of CTV specialists Elevate the Outcome, and a philosophy rooted in measurable business outcomes over vanity metrics. Kristina and Mike dig into why independent agencies are experiencing a renaissance right now as clients seek out agility and transparency. They unpack Net Conversion's approach to making CTV a true performance channel without losing the brand-building benefits, and get into the agency's pragmatic but skeptical stance on AI — from arguing with Google reps about Performance Max to building their own internal chatbot and copilot tools for analysts.

Google Ads wird 2026 deutlich stärker KI-gesteuert. Das betrifft nicht nur neue Funktionen, sondern auch deine Kampagnenstruktur, deine Assets und deine Auswertung. In dieser Folge bekommst du die wichtigsten Google Ads Updates für Mai 2026 und erfährst, worauf du jetzt achten solltest. Links: - https://searchengineland.com/google-is-testing-ai-generated-animated-video-clips-inside-pmax-472340 - https://searchengineland.com/google-adds-seasonal-creative-theming-to-pmax-asset-groups-472762 - https://blog.google/products/ads-commerce/dsa-upgrade-to-ai-max-2026/- https://www.facebook.com/business/help/1238737454289085 Warum die Alphabet-Zahlen für Werbetreibende relevant sind - Die Werbeeinnahmen von Google bleiben stabil und wachsen weiter. - Google Cloud und Gemini entwickeln sich stark. - Für Werbetreibende bedeutet das: Google wird KI und Werbung noch enger verbinden. - Wer Google Ads nutzt, sollte sich nicht nur mit Kampagnen beschäftigen, sondern auch mit KI-Funktionen im Google-Ökosystem. Neue Funktionen in Performance Max - PMax Assetgruppen können jetzt stärker auf Feiertage und Aktionstage ausgerichtet werden. - Für Ereignisse wie Muttertag lassen sich spezielle Assets und Werbemittel hinterlegen. - Das kann besonders für Shops, saisonale Angebote und Aktionskampagnen spannend sein. - Wichtig ist: Nach dem Aktionstag sollten diese Assets geprüft, pausiert oder angepasst werden. Asset Studio: Bilder und Videos direkt in Google Ads erstellen - Google integriert Bild- und Videoerstellung direkt in Google Ads. - Über das Asset Studio kannst du Bilder bearbeiten, Hintergründe ändern, Auflösungen verbessern und Videos erstellen. - Besonders spannend ist das für Unternehmen, die bisher keine guten Video-Assets für PMax oder Demand Gen nutzen. - Auch animierte Clips aus Bildern oder Videos können eine Zwischenlösung sein, wenn echtes Videomaterial fehlt. Mehr Transparenz in PMax Kampagnen - In PMax findest du unter Kanalleistung bessere Auswertungen nach Google Suche, YouTube, Display, Gmail und Discover. - Der Zeitverlauf zeigt, ob Google Budget und Ausspielung zwischen Kanälen verschiebt. - Dadurch erkennst du schneller, warum sich Kosten, Conversions oder Impressionen verändern. - Gerade bei schwankender Kampagnenleistung ist diese Auswertung ein wichtiger Kontrollpunkt. Dynamische Suchanzeigen werden zu AI Max - Dynamische Suchanzeigen sollen ab September standardmäßig in Richtung AI Max überführt werden. - Google crawlt dabei weiterhin Inhalte, aber die Steuerung wird stärker KI-basiert. - Bisher brachte AI Max nicht in jedem Kundenprojekt klare Vorteile. - Trotzdem ist davon auszugehen, dass Google diese Funktion weiter ausbaut und verbessert. Werbung in Gemini, KI-Übersichten und KI-Modus - Google testet Werbung in KI-Oberflächen bereits in englischsprachigen Märkten. - Für Deutschland ist eine Einführung im weiteren Jahresverlauf naheliegend. - Werbeanzeigen werden damit nicht nur in der klassischen Suche erscheinen, sondern auch in KI-Antworten und KI-Erlebnissen. - Das verändert, wie Unternehmen sichtbar werden und wie Angebote in Zukunft gefunden werden. Weitere Updates für YouTube und Meta - Im YouTube Studio gibt es mit Ask Studio einen Gemini-Assistenten für Videoideen und Analysen. - Das kann helfen, neue Themen aus bisherigen Videodaten abzuleiten. - Meta führt ebenfalls Standortgebühren beziehungsweise Digital Service Taxes für bestimmte Länder ein. - Wer international wirbt, muss diese Zusatzkosten in ROAS, CPA und Kosten-Umsatz-Relation einrechnen. Prüfe jetzt drei Dinge: - Nutzt du in PMax und Demand Gen bereits gute Bilder und Videos? - Verstehst du, über welche Kanäle deine PMax Kampagnen wirklich ausspielen? - Bist du vorbereitet, wenn AI Max und Werbung in KI-Oberflächen stärker ausgerollt werden? Wer diese Punkte früh sauber aufstellt, wird weniger von Google Updates überrascht und kann schneller entscheiden, welche Neuerung wirklich Umsatz bringt.

Jeremy Packee and Emily Anderson break down March's biggest paid media updates, including OpenAI's shift away from experimental tools like Sora and Meta's continued push into AI-powered campaign management with Manus. They also explore Google's expanding Performance Max capabilities, new cross-channel budgeting tools in Google Analytics, and Apple's long-awaited move into ads within Apple Maps. The episode highlights major changes to attribution, increased visibility and control within automated campaign types, and the growing role of AI across reporting, creative, and media buying workflows. As automation accelerates, the hosts emphasize the continued importance of human strategy and oversight. Episode Highlights Biggest Shift Meta's move to click-only attribution removes engagement-based signals from conversion tracking, which could significantly impact reporting and perceived performance across accounts. Biggest Platform Signal OpenAI sunsetting Sora signals a broader shift away from consumer-facing AI experiments toward more scalable, revenue-driven products like ads and enterprise tools. New Feature to Test Google Analytics' cross-channel budgeting and scenario planning tool could become a major step toward unified performance forecasting—if the data proves reliable. Control Upgrade Microsoft finally introduces negative keyword lists in PMax, bringing much-needed control to a previously limited campaign type. Creative Reality Check Google's Veo video generation inside Asset Studio shows promise, but current outputs still lag behind tools like Canva and other creative platforms. Other Platform Updates • Meta is expanding Manus AI into Ads Manager and the Instagram Creator Marketplace • Google added more visibility to Performance Max, including budget pacing and audience insights • Apple is introducing ads in Apple Maps search and suggested locations • OpenAI is testing an Ads Manager for ChatGPT with early reporting features • Shopify is leaning into AI-powered product discovery within ChatGPT while maintaining native checkout • WordPress now allows AI agents to create and manage site content (with approvals) • Meta added new lifecycle targeting and expanded retargeting controls • Pinterest is pushing Performance+ campaigns as the default • Snapchat and TikTok continue expanding AI creative tools and premium placements • Instagram is testing post-publish carousel reordering Final Take AI is becoming deeply embedded across every major platform—but it's still not ready to replace human decision-making. The opportunity isn't in handing over control—it's in knowing where these tools can actually improve efficiency without sacrificing strategy.

It affects every major platform including Google, LinkedIn, Meta, Reddit, and CTV.How do I stop ad fraud on LinkedIn?Simply uncheck the LinkedIn Audience Network checkbox in your campaign settings. According to Dr. Augustine Fou, this one free action eliminates roughly 90% of the most obvious fraud on the platform.What is the difference between CPM as a price vs. a cost?CPM is a price per thousand impressions — not your total cost. A $3 CPM isn't cheaper than a $30 CPM if you're forced to buy 10x the impressions to hit your goals, most of which may be fraudulent.Is CTV advertising safe from ad fraud?No. Bad actors can fabricate CTV bid requests without owning any TV or streaming device, declaring fake inventory as premium placements. Independent third-party pixels are the only reliable way to verify where your CTV ads actually ran.What is an inclusion list in programmatic advertising?An inclusion list is a curated set of approved sites and apps where your ads are allowed to run. Since there are infinite fraudulent sites but a finite number of legitimate ones humans actually visit, starting with an inclusion list is far more effective than trying to block bad actors one by one.

Is the "clash of the titans" coming for your profit margins, and is Google about to take away your website traffic? In this episode of Growing E-commerce, Mike Ryan and Chris Sharma tackle two massive, existential shifts threatening the traditional online retail playbook.First, we dive into the aggressive European expansion of Chinese e-commerce giants. While JD.com (Joybuy) and SHEIN are making aggressive moves, Temu is completely taking over. We break down the official monthly active user data, revealing that Temu now commands a 40% overall market share in Europe – including a staggering 71.1% market share in Poland and 44% in Germany. Are European retailers simply becoming collateral damage in this war of attrition?Then, we unpack a recently granted Google patent that sounds like a sci-fi nightmare for marketers. The patent outlines a system where Google evaluates your landing page, and if it doesn't meet their qualitative standards, they will generate an AI replacement landing page within the ad ecosystem. We discuss what this means for the loss of your tracking data, zero-click purchases, and the ultimate "PMax-ification" of Google Ads.

Yet, 1 in 5 agencies still charge by billable hours (with heavy geographical differences: only 4-12% in the US/AUS vs. 25% in Europe).The PMax Paradox: 48% complain about a lack of granular control, leading to workarounds like standard shopping hybrids (37%) and feed-only builds (17%). Despite this, 65% are satisfied with their PMax results.The AI Elephant in the Room: On average, professionals report saving only 5.2 hours a week using AI. Furthermore, 70% state that quality and accuracy (hallucinations) are their biggest AI hurdles.The Tool Stack: Surprisingly, 62% of respondents don't use paid third-party tools for analysis or optimization, relying entirely on native interfaces and spreadsheets.Resources & Links:Read the full, unfiltered report for free at: www.ppcsurvey.comA massive thank you to Wijnand Meijer and the TrueClicks team for driving this monumental effort.Shoutout to all the fellow partners for making this happen: DataFeedWatch by Cart.com, God Tier Ads, Hero Conf, Optmyzr, Producthero, SMX Advanced Europe, Swydo, TrueClicks, and Smarter E-commerce (smec).Learn more about Smarter E-commerce: smarter-ecommerce.comAbout Smarter Ecommerce (smec):Smarter Ecommerce (smec) empowers e-commerce brands with AI-driven PPC automation that optimizes for profit and business outcomes while maintaining strategic control.The platform activates first-party data - profit margins, customer lifetime value, and key business metrics - to automate campaign optimization toward goals like profitability and efficient growth, while detailed campaign insights provide full transparency and enable PPC teams to focus on strategic oversight rather than manual execution.As a Google Premier Partner and three-time Microsoft Retail Partner of the Year, smec manages over €500 million in ad spend and drives €5B+ in annual e-commerce revenue for 350+ global retail clients including THG, Snipes, REWE, and Intersport.Make sure to follow smec - Smarter Ecommerce for more performance marketing insights:smec - Smarter Ecommerce: https://www.smarter-ecommerce.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/smarter-ecommerce-gmbhNewsletter: https://smarter-ecommerce.com/en/newsletter/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/smarterecommerce/

In this episode of Growing eCommerce, Mike Ryan and Chris debunk three persistent myths that are still holding retailers back in 2026. While everyone is distracted by the hype of UCP and Agentic Commerce, many accounts are bleeding efficiency due to outdated structures like the "Heroes & Zombies" matrix and one-dimensional margin buckets.We break down why these old-school tactics create self-fulfilling prophecies of failure and share what sophisticated retailers are doing instead to balance volume, margin, and the new reality of AI-driven search.In this episode, we cover:The "Zero Click" Wake-Up Call: Why the shift to walled gardens means you need to fix your tactical basics now before the ecosystem changes forever.Myth #1: Heroes & Zombies: Why classifying low-volume products as "zombies" is a logical flaw that starves your potential growth engines. We explain the danger of using historical data to doom new products.Myth #2: Margin Buckets: Why segmenting campaigns by gross margin % (e.g., 0-5%, 5-10%) is dangerous. Mike shares data showing how this ignores conversion volume and pricing strategies, leading to "death by optimization."Myth #3: PMax vs. Standard Shopping: It's no longer an either/or decision. We discuss the rise of hybrid setups and why Standard Shopping is actually gaining cost share again.Key Takeaways:Don't rely on single-dimensional data: Grouping products solely by ROAS or Margin % ignores critical context like seasonality, price competitiveness, and absolute profit.Standard Shopping isn't dead: Even Google is now advocating for hybrid use cases, such as using Standard Shopping for query filtering or specific inventory control.+1The "Self-Fulfilling Prophecy": If you put a new product in a "zombie" campaign with low budget because it has no data, it will never get data. You need a multi-dimensional scoring strategy.About Mike RyanBased in Austria and originally from Boston, Mike Ryan is Head of Ecommerce Insights at Smarter Ecommerce (smec).
