Retargeting and Display Advertising - Moz data
-
Hello Dr Moz'ers
So we have a new competitor in our market (6 months) that has basically copied our business model 100%, grrrr. We have been in the market since 2008 .This new website is ranking well considering how difficult our market is.
This new website is using the re-targeting display advertising and within 6 months his Moz data is showing around 45,000 back links, is this because of the re-targeting display advertising?
Is there any link juice from the re-targeting display advertising because the MOz data says the site has 100% follow even though its an image.
Cheers

Hey Steve!
We will index any HTML links if they can be found but not links embedded in JS as most ads are with their redirect structure.
Hope this helps!

Much appreciated Jasmine.

I am fairly sure it doesn't even see ad links, but let me check with the Moz team & get back with you.

Cheers guys,
Is there a way to PM the site domain name for more detail incite as it's not making much sense to us. The data is very confusing.
Even though there is no google juice can the MOZ data be confused by the ad links?

Remarketing should have no benefit to rankings whatsoever. Remarketing ads are loaded via javascript, are generally in iframes with nofollow and they go through a redirect chain before leading to the website. This means that they aren't actual links that Google sees or counts for SEO benefit.
They may be using some sort of blackhat method to gain links that fast, but remarketing is not that method.

Will Google penalize a text ad if the display URL goes nowhere?
Today I had a colleague ask me if Google Adwords will penalize text ads that have display URLs that land on 404 pages. I fully understand the policy that the domains in display URLs and destination URLs have to match up or Google will disapprove the text ad. However if the display url contains the proper domain (and a target keyword phrase for a file folder) will Google penalize the text ad quality score if the display URL lands on a 404? I had trouble finding specific evidence for this.

Has anyone used Adroll (Facebook retargeting)with any success?
Hello! I am wondering if anyone out there has had a good experience with Adroll. I set up a campaign a couple months ago, but have yet to see any return on my investment. I'm now considering stopping this service because it seems to not be living up to its hype. What has your experience in using this service?

CPC or CPM for Google Display Network?
HI all I'm setting up my first Remarketing campaign on the display network. I'm targeting those that have visited a specific product page at the moment and therefore there won't be a massive amount of traffic to remarket to - roughly no more than 50 clicks/day. My question is - what is the best bidding option for a campaign like this? Not sure whether to go for CPM or traditional CPC. I have previously found CPM much better for Facebook but obviously thats very different to Google. All help appreciated!

Cost of Retargeting (Remarketing) Ad Clicks
If you run an Adwords banner campaign with retargeting, how is the cost per click determined? My hunch is that it would be different than text ads in search result pages.

Redirecting AdWords Display URLs
I feel it's a best practice (from a user experience POV) to create a 301redirect when using a fictitious display URL in your PPC ads. And according to the AdWords help page (http://support.google.com/adwordspolicy/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=175906&rd=2) Google doesn't have an issue using a redirect. "Redirects used for tracking purposes are fine as long as the final landing page has the same domain as the display URL." I'm curious if there is ad score penalty if one does not ionclude a redirect - i.e. the user types in your display URL and gets a 404. Has anyone seen an evidence of this?

Is there any correlation between the on-page factors being complete in moz and having a good quality score in Adwords?
I've been optimizing the website for a few keywords we're targeting and I'm looking to improve the quality score for my Adwords landing pages. My on-page scoring is great, but my scores in Adwords are low. Ideas?
