You may notice that we shined up the design on PPC-Advice tonight. Hope everyone enjoys the new look and feel as it marks only the 3rd official redesign in nearly 3 years.
It’s true, I’ve been doing this nearly 3 years. How appropriate that my 3rd anniversary for the blog falls around the time of Connected Marketing Week and SES, the best sponsors and partners a guy could ask for.
As most of you know, I advocate making small, educated changes to any design, so I didn’t want to change too much, but I felt the great content on my site outgrew the very narrow columns of the old design. I’m a bit embarrassed to admit it, but I didn’t really test it across multiple browsers, so feel free to leave a comment if the new design looks a bit bizarre on your browser and we’ll address the problem ASAP.
Thanks for sticking with us through the years, it’s been a blast so far, and I have no intention to stop anytime soon!

PPC-Advice.com has finally outgrown it’s web hosting. I’m going to be moving the blog this weekend, so if it doesn’t show up for a few hours, please come back monday morning. Everything should be smoothed out, and faster, by then.

We’re still kicking the tires on this one, but the new design will definitely enable us to support a lot more options and content on the same amount of real-estate. For those of you that are bound to ask, the fish didn’t make the first cut, but they’ll be back sometime later this week when the header graphics are done. In the meantime, feel free to kick the tires, and if there are any bugs that we’ve overlooked, please don’t hestitate to point them out.
If you’re too tired after the Google dance the night before, Day 3 has you covered. Looks like Kevin Ryan was nice enough to pace everyone in attendance with two coffee breaks wednesday morning, plus a roundtable discussion. Sessions don’t start until 10:30, so if you sleep in you won’t be sauntering into a smaller conference room. Good thinking! Anyways, my predictions for Day 3 at SES San Jose continues… Read more…
Search Engine Strategies New York is quite possibly the most attended online marketing event in North America. The best and brightest in our industry join in various cities throughout the year on the SES tour, but seldom is the turnout as high as in New York City. I had the privilege of attending this year, and on Day 1 of the conference, I’d have to say the session on Auditing Click Fraud was the best. Read more…
I wasn’t planning on writing today, just because it’s a statutory holiday and all, but I saw something today that made me laugh. In preparing a post for tomorrow detailing the Omniture Excel Client, I noticed that when you revert your Internet Explorer 7 settings back to default Google notices! If anyone was ever afraid that Google’s starting down the lines of becoming Big Brother, your fears may be warranted. Read more…
