What's new @ Google? Tips and tools for agencies
Top topics of 2009, an Agency Blog retrospective
Tuesday, December 22, 2009
The end of the year is typically a time to reflect on the past 12 months and plan for the next adventure. Taking inspiration from our favorite pre-holiday work distraction, we are pleased to bring you the Agency blog's own "best of 2009." Your visits and time spent on site helped us identify the information, ideas and resources that can best help you move your clients' businesses forward.
1. Google Content Network tips and tools
- Knowing that the Content Network offers the opportunity to scalably expand your clients' reach, we posted on a number of
Content Network topics
, ranging from
tools
to
optimization tips
to
training resources
. We hope that they enabled you to plan, execute and measure your Content Network campaigns in the most impactful, efficient and cost-effective ways possible.
2. Quality Score
- A key element of successful campaigns is ensuring that they have the strongest Quality Score possible. Whether you're brand new to search marketing, or were one of the first search advertisers on the scene, there's always something new to learn about Quality Score. To help you get the strongest Quality Score, we ran our
Quality Score series
and will continue to post new tips as they become available.
3. Case studies
- One piece of feedback we heard is that agencies and advertisers value case studies, as they inspire and instruct with "best in class" examples and useful data points. We also heard that sometimes they're not easy to find. As a result, we added case studies to the 2009 blog list, with topics ranging from
online-to-stores successes
to
effective integrated media campaigns
.
4. Training resources
- With the frequency of additions and updates to Google's media solutions, you could spend as much time keeping up to speed as you do managing your clients' campaigns. Knowing your time is precious, we focused on
webinars and on-demand videos
that work with your schedules and deliver just the right amount of information. In addition, we introduced you to
Google AgencyLand
, our new learning and resources platform for agencies.
5. Analytics
- Whether you love data, or love to hate data, data is central to successful campaigns. We want you all to love it, so we posted our favorite
Analytics
60-second videos, product updates, as well as useful tips delivered from in-house experts, including Analytics Evangelist Avinash Kaushik.
6. Local marketing resources
- Sometimes your clients' customer is half way across the globe; other times the customer is half a block away. Regardless, it is important to market to consumers where they are, and Google has made it easier to do that with new and improved
local marketing features
, such as
Location Extensions
and
Place Pages in Placement Performance reports
.
It's been a pleasure blogging for you in 2009, and we look forward to bringing you fresh new tips, tactics, resources and updates in 2010.
