September Issue – Good Bye & Hello
Goodbye Summer
It’s sad but true, we are moving into the Autumn and soon many people’s thoughts will be on keeping warm and cosy. Its an important time too for business leads & transactions as we find it’s the time of year when staff have returned from their vacations and sitting down to discuss plans.
Remarketing with AdWords is a great low cost way to remind previous website visitors about your business https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2453998?hl=en-GB
Seasonal Sales
The next few months are particularly important for retail sales of furniture and homeware and plans for positioning to take advantage of this should be at an advanced stage.

What’s Hot?
At Crescent Digital, we love data and we’re always looking for trends to help our clients. One of the biggest spending Google AdWords clients this time last year were retailing Christmas jumpers with AdWords spend exceeding £500,000 in the run-up to Christmas. One trend showing strong growth throughout 2016 is the fashion for military and retro clothing, such as bomber jackets:

Hottest Selling eBay Category
Many successful clients started by retailing through eBay & Amazon and several of our clients sell multi-channel through eBay & Amazon in addition to their own web site.
Incidentally, our data shows the hottest selling item category (past 30 days) on eBay to be … Moth Balls.
We didn’t believe it either, but a quick glance at some products shows that there is potential for good revenue within these niches – 201 items sold @ £506 = £101,706 revenue for one product:
Google Penalising Mobile Pages With Pop-Ups
From January 2017, if your website contains pop-ups that cover some of the content; or the user has to dismiss before accessing the main content, your mobile search results may not rank as highly in Google.

Thanks for the explaination. I did everything accordingly, and now waiting for the 24h to pass for it to show up in my Analytics. However, the small one-sentence confirmation is not appearing anymore, when someone fills in the contact form on our website. Could you please give some input on how to fix this?

Unfortunately not I’m afraid. It does vary with the type of activity and LinkedIn frequently change their policies, but at present, LinkedIn’s maximum is 30 days.
