NEWS YOU CAN USE

Google's making some big changes to its Local Services ads that could impact millions of small businesses! 

Starting November 21, only businesses with a verified Google Business Profile can run these ads, which are a key marketing tool. If your business info doesn't match what's in your ad, your ads could get paused. Verification isn’t too tricky, but it might take up to seven days, so make sure your business address is claimed and verified ASAP.

PRIVACY

Meta is ramping up its fight against scams by testing new facial recognition technology aimed at protecting users from deceptive celeb-bait ads and helping recover compromised accounts. This innovative approach will help verify identities through video selfies, making account recovery faster and more secure. Prices for using Meta's services are generally free, but premium features may apply depending on your needs!
