Google Adchoice - where to begin?
-
I know many of you may see this as cheating but I've been given a Adchoice budget so I'm going to make the most of it!
One problem... where do I begin?
Adwords doesn't seem to have any information about Adchoice and Adsense, as far as I can see, is placing adverts on my site which is not what I want. -
That's great! As you come across more questions about Adwords or Analytics, post more questions! I'm always on the lookout for the PPC questions on the Q&A forum here.

Thanks John,
After spending more time using Adwords and linking to Analytics I am starting to get better results

Google Adsense is for publishers to place Google display ads on their pages. Google Adwords is about buying ad placements on Google searches, and Adsense publisher websites. It sounds like you're looking for Google Adwords if you're looking to put your own ads out there.
Ads are not cheating! Here, we bid on some keywords for things that we don't even have on our site, because the people doing those searches haven't realized yet what they should be looking for is our product. Since those keywords aren't even on the site, we don't have the opportunity to rank for them organically.

Search results vary in chrome vs other browsers even in Incognito mode: Google's stand?
Hi all, We use incognito mode or private browsing to check the Actual results which are not impacted by previous history, location (sometimes), etc. Even we browse this way, we can see the different search results. Why would this happen? What's Google's stand on this? What is the actual way to browse to get the unbiased results for certain search queries? I have experienced that Chrome will rank our own websites bit higher compared to the other browsers even in incognito mode. Thanks

How to count number of app's installations for users who install app from https://play.google.com?
The task is to find out which banner on my site provides more installations of the game. The banners' urls link directly (refferal source in the url is specified) to the game page on https://play.google.com. Google Analytics and Google Play are connected but I've faced the problem that Google Analytics counts only visitors who install app via Google Play app so visitors from the banners to play.google.com aren't counted at all. That's the question, is there any way to count visitors to the app page on play.google.com and to count the number of installations by these visitors ?

Google News query
Hi Moz community! I have a client who have been rejected for inclusion in Google's news results. This is their web site: www.irishracing.com they are not a gambling/gaming web site, but they do advertise gambling on the site, and I am thinking that this may be an issue for them. We asked Google and obviously got a generic 'see our guidelines' response, with no actual specific feedback. Any ideas anyone? Kind regards. Gavin

Is the search volume insight in Bing more accurate as it is in Google?
Does anybody know if Search volume insight in Bing is more accurate than it is in Google?
SERP Trends | | Seeders
Moz is showing Search Volume insight in Bing now (not sure about the reason, probably Moz has no access to Google? Or is it because it is more accurate?)
For some words I have my doubts about the Google Keyword Tool. I don't know about Bing.
For the first time I compare two words on Bing with Google I found out the ratio in Bing is very different compared with Google. Example:
When you check out the words: espressomachine and koffiemachine
**Google, local search in the Netherlands: **
espressomachine: 6600
koffiemachine: 8100
Bing, local search in the Netherlands:
espressomachine: 549
koffiemachine: 361 So..., are Bing users typical kind of users who uses other search phrases?
Or... is one of these two more accurate? Does anybody know?0 -
