This week we get started off with Google offering local businesses a way to show their inventories online for free This means you will have additional editing capacity on your Google My Business page.

Google is the king of fake news sites. Studies are saying that about half the fake news sites are found on their platform. Ensure that you find a way to guard your ads against appearing on fake news sites. 

Getting the ball rolling we recently learnt that the United States spent more on cross border retail purchases than any other market in 2021. Almost $270 Billion Dollars. If you have an international Ecommerce store then this information will help you choose new markets.

We have been on a sabbatical for 3 months due to the Covid19 impacting upon our health in April and May 2021. However, we are now continuing the digital marketing newsletter journey from this issue onwards.

This is the first issue of our Digital Marketing Weekly newsletter.

We have tried to cover mostly everything happened inside Digital Marketing Industry lately in the 2nd week of March 2021. Brave Browser is launching its own ads-free search engine. Google published its Annual Ads Safety Report and disclosed that it has blocked over 3.1 billion ads for violating its ads policies. A fire at an OVH Data Center in France took down thousands of websites including WPRocket, Imagify, etc and the outage may continue until March 22, 2021 for some customers.

This is our introductory issue of digital marketing weekly newsletter thus it goes for a celebration. I want to thank everyone who has impacted the digital marketing industry with knowledge, information, data, books, courses, etc helping our digital marketing community move forward.

We have several sponsorship slots available. Please reach out to me through email, or say hello on Twitter.

Thank you. Now it’s time for the news!
