      I have a basic query but could not find a definite answer on the internet. I am currently running a campaign for the main website of a big education brand and they also have a secondary learning website on subdomain, and I want to add sitelinks of subdomain to the campaign, but I am not sure whether it is allowed or not.

      The brand I am running ads for is https://www.rauias.com/ and the secondary website is https://compass.rauias.com/ branded slightly different in a subdomain, so should I add the sitelinks of Compass to the main campaign?

      Also one more silly question

      My Max Conversion search campaign gave me this status today.

      "Learning (composition change): Campaigns have been added to or removed from the bid strategy. Google Ads is now adjusting to optimize bids.

      5 days left for learning"

      What does this mean exactly? And Why does it reenter the learning phase whenever I make a small change?

        @rauoff Adding sitelinks of a subdomain to the main campaign is generally allowed by Google Ads, but with certain considerations:

        1. Relevance: The subdomain sitelinks should be relevant to the main campaign and ad groups. Users clicking the ad should expect to find similar content on both the main website and the subdomain.

        2. User experience: Ensure a smooth user experience when clicking the subdomain sitelink. The subdomain website should be visually consistent with the main website and offer a positive user experience.

        3. Brand consistency: Maintain consistent branding across both websites to avoid confusing users.

        4. Performance: Monitor the performance of the subdomain sitelinks and adjust as needed. If they are not attracting clicks or conversions, consider removing them from the campaign.

          Hi everyone, We have been running Google Ads for a while now and last week all of our Google Ads were paused with reason Compromised Site. We reached out to Google and they identify this page as one of the affected page: https://manpower.com.vn/vi/dich-vu-san-dau-nguoi-and-tu-van-nhan-su-cap-cao? The malicious links they found are:
          • googie-anaiytics[.]com
          • vty68[.]net We have asked our Website vendor to scan and they found nothing. We would be greatly appreciated if you could help. I tried Google Search Console and even the tool Google Safe Browsing that Google itself suggested but both the tools showed that our website does not have any malicious links at all. And yet Google Ads support team keeps telling us our page contains these links. I am wondering if anyone in the community has experienced this before and how did you address this issue. Or could you guys please help to share any tools that you know can do a deep scan on this page and if possible our entire website to help us identify where the links are located? Please let me know if you need any additional information from us and I would be happy to provide it.

          Special Characters in Negative Keywords in Ads

          Howdy, fellow mozzers, I came across this weird suggestion in my Bing account (screenshot link: https://dmitrii-regexseo.tinytake.com/tt/NDY3OTc5NF8xNDgyMzY4OA) It almost that the dollar sign in the negative keyword is acting like a wildcard character, or being disregarded completely. I did some tests, it seems that in Google Ads that is not happening. Does anyone have an idea if this is normal behavior? I have never seen this before.

          304 "If Modified Header" Triggers Error in Google Ads?

          We have a client who is launch some Google Ads campaigns, and they recently asked us to fix 304 "Errors" on their website as per this feedback: "When we inspected the website we came across a number of 304 status errors. In order to get the ads running, we will need all of the website domain status codes converted to 200. “ Of course, all of their website pages return a 200 Status, it's just the HTTP headers that additionally clarify with a 304 Response (not an error). Has anyone else ever run into this issue with Google Ads? IMHO it makes no sense to remove this functionality. Google has even recommended in the past to use this it: https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2008/11/date-with-googlebot-part-ii-http-status.html Thanks for any tips or feedback!

          Strategy for writing meta descriptions and titles for case studies?

          My company is a B2B software company and we have A LOT of case studies.  I was doing an audit and rewriting my case study meta data when I thought maybe there was a better way to write the title and meta description for these case studies. My strategy thus far is to summarize the benefits our software had on the company the case study is about.   Lots of 20% increases,  reached 99% of this metric,  saved 100k in first year.  That kind of stuff. I wonder if this is the best approach, or if maybe asking questions or just explaining that this is a case study for this company in this industry would be better for SEO. What do you guys think?  Pardon the redundancy but are there any case studies about seo for case studies?

          Multiple keyword match types - same ad group, or separate ad groups?

          Hi guys, Looking at an account that has historically used broad matching, and i'd now like to take some of the better performing keywords and duplicate as phrase and/or exact match to increase the quality of traffic to the landing pages. I know I can add red shoes, "red shoes" and [red shoes] to the same ad group, however I've also read that people are creating separate groups for each match type. Other than easy of management (same group), or more granular targeting of ads (separate groups), should I go with either approach, or a blend of the two? My key objective in this restructure is to drop the currently high bounce rate on the landing pages by improving the relevance of the incoming traffic. Cheers, Jez
