When I started managing paid ads campaigns back in 2006, tracking was a nightmare. We’d spend thousands on Google Ads and Facebook campaigns, and at the end of the month, we’d get a bunch of traffic numbers that looked impressive but told us absolutely nothing about which specific ad copy actually converted customers. Fast forward …
The Real Talk About Traffic That Doesn’t Convert I’ll be honest when I first started managing digital marketing campaigns back in the late 2000s, I was obsessed with one metric: traffic. More visits meant success, right? I’d spend hours optimizing for impressions, click-through rates, and absolute visitor numbers. My clients would get excited seeing their …

By Amit Tyagi — Senior Digital Marketing Specialist & Web Development Strategist I’ve watched businesses pour their entire marketing budget into the front door and then act shocked when customers walk out the back. The numbers on this are not subtle. The average business spends roughly five times more to acquire a customer than it …
By Amit Tyagi — Senior Digital Marketing Specialist & Web Development Strategist I spent the last few weeks pulling conversion data on a set of clients who were genuinely winning at video SEO.

If you’ve been managing Google Ads campaigns lately, you’ve probably noticed something new in your account. Google has quietly rolled out a “How this ad was made” section in its My Ad Center—and it’s automatically labeling ads built with generative AI tools. It’s the kind of change that sounds simple on the surface, but for …

Hi everyone, Amit here. I wanted to post a quick, honest update for anyone who’s been watching their rankings bounce around over the last few weeks and wondering whether something’s wrong on their end. Short answer: probably not. Here’s what’s actually going on. What’s Happening Google has been through a genuinely unsettled stretch of algorithm …
Over the last two years, alongside running client marketing programs, I’ve spent a genuinely significant chunk of my time getting hands-on with large language models directly — not just using ChatGPT the way most marketers do, but actually understanding how these systems retrieve, weight, and reproduce information. I built that foundation formally through AI and …

I read a lot of platform announcements in this industry, and most of them don’t warrant a second look. This one did — enough that I spent a good part of my week going through the press materials, the executive statements, and the early trade coverage before writing a word of this post. On July …
