Yes!!
I’ve dying to be able to talk about this externally!!!
We’re finally lunching our +1 Button.
Let’s say you search something on Google and there’s a result you love. How do you indicate that? You just click on +1.
Do you find an ad displaying all the relevant information that you need? +1
Do you really want your friends to know that a particular page is worthy and relevant? +1
How do we share search results? +1
How can we help to get more relevant results and make sure than the rest know which those are? +1

The best way for you and your friends and family to say: This is something you should check out.

Soon, you’ll be able to +1 more than search results. Soon you’ll be able to +1 our ads and website!!
Isn’t it exciting?

AdWords Headline Extensions… The fight for the first positions!

Feb 10
2011

And what a great idea to make the ads more visible uh?
I’m sure some of you have noticed the change. Now there are ads with a longer headline (the blue underlined line of an ad text in AdWords).
The title has been linked to the first line of text for some ads and the result? More visible ads… more chances to be clicked!

The best part… what if we have an ad with the super headline and sitelinks? Yes, you guessed it. That ad will probably have a higher clickthrough rate.

Position has always been very important but now it should be one of your priorities. Have a look at the Capital One ad!

AdWords Headline Extension

You can find an example and some more information in our Official Blog!

The New Advertising Threesome: Offline, Online and Social

Oct 04
2010

After a meeting  I had with a client today, I could confirmed how the different media available at the moment isn’t correctly utilized. Advertisers don’t always realize the potential. It’s like a tale…

Chapter 1: When Offline meets Online. Offline is not single anymore.

We know offline is important. TV ads, billboards, magazines, radio etc… have a massive reach and it’s our traditional stuff right? A TV ad at a particular time, we’ll be reaching almost a whole nation. But, bear this in mind, whatever you advertise  offline, has to appear online. People will search for you. People will Google your slogan or go to your website or search for your videos on YouTube. If you say on TV that you’ll be offering a 50% discount, believe me, audience will try to reach your website. Offline falls in love with Online.

Chapter 2: Why not? Let’s try a threesome!

I’m surprised of how often big companies and institutions forget about what I call “The Media Threesome”. Offline and Online, both meet Social.

You can monitor the instant effect of any online or offline campaign in your Twitter account, on blogs, Facebook, Orkut etc. The audience searching for your page after watching a TV ad, will post on Twitter how great your offer is or blog about the great shopping day with your 50% discount. Offline, Online and Media are in love with each other.  You can’t love only one, you’ll have to love the three of them. Poligamy is now legal in the advertising world.

The end: Love is in the air…  orgy next?
