Is the following statement from this marketing company nonsense?

A customer for whom I do non website related work started a Google Ads campaign with a marketing company as part of their contract. This is a paragraph they attached when they sent the email to confirm the campaign started.

This seems quite absurd to me. If this were a gift shop and the customer would search for things like "gift shop near me", how the hell would it lower the click through rate? Especially if you're not even searching for the name of the company specifically or are logged in with that particular google account. (which I know they're not). I mean you want to verify that your ad is actually running and active right?

They just found out the ad had not been running at all and only just got activated today. So now it sounds like that paragraph was even more intentionally deceiving to keep customers from checking on their own ad. Currently they don't know how long the ad has not been running.

Is there a way to know how much Adsense dollars were spent by this company without access to this companies account through which the ads were supposedly bought? We requested the Google reports from them, but they're dragging their feet.

Although we know it's tempting, it's best to resist the urge to search your position on Google. By conducting searches to bring up your ad, you may generate too many impressions without clicks. These lower your click-through rate rate and prevent your ad from appearing as often as it should. If you continuously search for your ad, but do not click on it, you might stop your ad from appearing altogether. This occurs because Google's system is designed to stop displaying ads you don't seem interested in.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

are my YT keywords being ignored?

I have 3hr+ YT videos, so I chapter them out quite extensively. I've read in a couple places if I have too many keywords just grouped together they will all be ignored. Are my keywords being ignored...or are they even being crawled...through my chapters section? Also, is hashtagging in a chapter name good, bad, or not at all relevant? example chapters: Bookmarks: 0:00 Intro 4:25 Little Panda #littlepanda 13:04 Royale With Cheese Megaways #royalewithcheesemegaways 24:48 Big Bass Bonanza #bigbassbonanza 33:02 Book of Cats #bookofcats 44:11 Tractor Beam #tractorbeam submitted by /u/bauerwelson [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/3Gx8IPZ
