In this episode of The Marketing Rundown, we cover an urgent technical threat: Cloudflare's default "block AI bots" setting (rolling out Sept 15) could accidentally block Googlebot and Bingbot from indexing your site. We also break down a step-by-step audit to expose Performance Max "brand leak" where Google claims credit for conversions you already owned, reveal how Amazon is reselling ChatGPT ad inventory via Amazon DSP at near-zero fees, and examine why labeling your mid-priced offer as "Recommended" boosts conversions by 58%.

📋 Also Worth Noting:

  • AI Overviews & Shopping Ad CTRs: AI Overviews are absorbing low-intent search queries, causing Shopping ad impressions to drop while CTR rises—track total traffic and impression volume, not CTR alone.
  • OpenAI Blocking Competitor Ads: OpenAI is declining ad approvals for competing image and audio AI tools in ChatGPT.
  • Snapchat Dynamic Product Ads in Sponsored Snaps: Extending DPA targeting into Snapchat's highest-reach placement.
  • Legacy Brand De-Aging (Chili's & Barnes & Noble): Leaning into traditional core strengths when broader category shifts make old identities relevant again.
  • Away Luggage's Scripted Social Series: Replaces traditional scrolling ads with appointment viewing via a multi-episode narrative series.
