Internet marketing

Sometimes, I talk to people saying one of the following:

• “Facebook constantly feeds me with lots of advertising”;
• “Facebook only rarely, if ever, shows me your messages.”

Sure, if you go to Facebook.com and allow Facebook to determine what is essential for you, then you’ll have the above issues.

How to fix this? Two solutions:

• Unfollow most people; I only follow a handful of people;
• Instead of allowing Facebook to create a newsfeed for me, I visit the people/entities profiles/pages; so, I don’t read Facebook.com, but I read, for example, Facebook.com/undeiesiminconstanta – I periodically visit URLs like these. I have created bookmarks and a folder for those bookmarks, and, with various periodicity, I visit those URLs.

Samsung sells both expensive and cheap phones.

Apple generally sells expensive phones.

When Samsung tries to sell a Samsung Galaxy Ultra phone, it creates a question in the buyer’s mind: “Am I buying an expensive or cheap product?”

When Apple tries to sell a cheap iPhone SE, people might ask – “Is this a cheap product? That’s hard to believe!”

There’s a reason why, in the car industry, BMW only sells expensive cars, while Volkswagen cars are average.

You don’t buy a luxury Volkswagen and a cheap BMW.

I believe Apple should sell the iPhone SE, and Samsung should create a separate brand for its top products.

Google’s deadline for organizations using its services in the EU/EEA and UK for advertising is March 2024. Companies need to implement a Google-certified consent management platform, like Cookiebot CMP. If they don’t, they will still be able to serve ads, but without access to personalization functionality. […]

Under the EU user consent policy, third parties that use Google’s platforms and services need to meet the following requirements:

• obtain legally valid consent from end users for:
  • use of cookies or other local storage where legally required, and
  • collecting, sharing and using personal data from audiences for ad personalization
• when requesting consent from end users, parties must:
  • retain records of users’ consent choices
  • enable end users to revoke their consent any time, with clear instructions for how to do so

Can you put a link to the site on the dark web for SEO purposes?

Let’s take this statement:

“The term dark web refers to encrypted online content that is not indexed by conventional search engines. Accessing the dark web can only be done using specific browsers, such as TOR Browser.”

Source: What Is the Dark Web and Should You Access It?

If the statement is true, in this case, Google will not see the link so it doesn’t affect you.

What happens if Google can access the link? If Google somehow sees the link, it matters a lot which site puts the link. It may be a legitimate site, and then the link helps, or it may be a dubious site, which at best does no harm, and at worst, if there are a lot of such sites that link, risk a penalty.
