7 Reasons To Implement Google’s Dynamic Search Ads In 2019

Posted on by Matt

https://mywebbro.com In this video, let’s take a look at the top 7 reasons that a business should consider implementing Dynamic Search Ads in the Google Ads Platform. Dynamic Search Ads differ from traditional Keywords campaigns in that we let Google’s Artificial Intelligence determine how to display the ad to a specific user depending on the query they typed into the search engine. The old traditional keywords method of creating Google Ads was much more labor-intensive and required a lot more trial and error to reach a highly optimized state. This translates to savings in the form of labor but it is still highly recommended that a trained and certified professional manage these campaigns if you want to see their full potential.

This Is Why Your WordPress Website Is Stuck On Version 4.9.3

Posted on by Matt

https://mywebbro.com On February 5, 2018, WordPress released update version 4.9.3 to fix bugs and errors that were introduced in update 4.9.0. While this update was important, it contained a critical error that would cause a website to get stuck on this version and not automatically update to version 4.9.4 Although I do not recommend you set your WordPress website for automatic updates it is important to understand that if you do rely on automatic updates your website will not update again until you manually do so. I anticipate that this will have a negative impact on a number of websites in the coming months as business owners continue to operate, unaware of the change.
