WordStream analyzed over 15,666 Google Ads accounts and found widespread inefficiencies in how advertisers are managing search campaigns.

Some key insights to know:

• Average wasted spend was $1,127/month, over a third of typical budgets.
• 29% of accounts had zero conversions over 90 days, despite impressions.
• Smaller budgets often outperformed larger ones in conversion efficiency.
• Positive conversion rates were nearly three times higher in accounts using negative keywords.
• Many accounts still lack basic practices like negative keywords or proper conversion tracking.

Fotografiska’s photography museum in Stockholm is running a clever campaign to get folks in the door.

They’ve shrunken famous images by Elliot Erwitt to a nearly illegible (read: mobile) size across OOH spots, which is generating a lot of squinting.

The tagline is “Photography deserves more than your feed.”

It’s a great stunt to assert that art should be experienced at full scale, because a lot nuance is lost to thumbnails and grids.
