Old Good Broad Match
An Overview Of The Topics Discussed At 2021 PES@Home Summit
What did we talk about during the summit? You should know already, I have been saying that for years!
Back in my first teaching days in specialisation courses at the IULM University in Milan, a student used to make fun of me by repeating “reverse, reverse, reverse”.
Then we took a walk together in San Francisco, to the Plex, home of Google, to attend a summit and he saw with his own eyes how things do look like: there are two Google worlds.
I mean Google Ads, of course… the PROFIT world of the Google Ads Community and the SALES world, more focussed on Partner agencies and Premier Partners.
Both are winning philosophies for Google, but on one hand the performance is like a lemon squeezed to the last drop… on the other hand instead it comes from the choice of turning a blind eye and pretending nothing inappropriate happens… so that we can be awarded a nice soccer table we can brag about and take some selfies at the office!
Well… putting (sterile) controversies aside - and I do not intend to spark any controversy - let’s get back to the very first sentence I wrote at the beginning of this column: I have been saying that for years.
2004: Google AdWords hits Italy in 2003 and I immediately started working on it, right after my career as publisher at Overture by Altavista & Co. had begun. A story that most of you already heard of.
But, what do I really mean? Basically that the key to winning ways, and a lot of people still take KEYWORD for QUERY (search term), proving they cannot tell which is which yet, has been and is always going to be generic correspondence.
The difference is that in the past you needed to fill your account of reverse correspondences, but today this needs to be done less and less, if the Machine Learning system is allowed to perform at its best.
Back on September 13th this was one of the topics discussed at the Product Expert Summit. Just a little breeze for now… meant to blow as a hype wind soon.
Long live Broad Match!

Cara Vecchia Broad Match: di cosa abbiamo parlato al PES@Home Summit 2021
Un mio vecchio allievo, dei miei primi anni di docenza ai Master IULM, mi “prendeva in giro” dicendo “inverse, inverse, inverse”.
Google Ads intendo… quello PROFIT della Community degli inserzionisti Google e quello SALES, più verticalizzato sulle agenzie Partner e Premier Partner.
2004, Google AdWords arriva in Italia nel 2003 e io inizio a lavorarci nel 2004, dopo aver iniziato la mia carriera di publisher con Overture di Altavista & Co.
Storia che tanti di voi già conoscono.
La differenza è che prima avevi bisogno di riempire l’account di corrispondenze inverse… oggi, se lasci lavorare il Machine Learning, di fatto le inverse da inserire sono davvero poche.
Per ora un soffietto leggero… poi diventerà notizia di dominio pubblico.
