is there a script way to increase my Bid for one keyword when i'm below specific website for that keyword. Can you change your bid when you are below specific website? I'm trying to advertise my dad's website and i need to change my bid every 5 min to stay first ,because there is one website that's always above me how is that possible? I'm noob to google adwords, but i have money to spent i just need to know if there is way to set automatic rules or script that will make me first no matter the price.
You can do this with portfolio bidding in Google AdWords and choosing your optimization for outranking share but this is a really bad idea. Don't go for first position if you don't know which metrics you should check to judge performance.

I have the following scenario:
There are a list of headings:
Best Holiday Destination for you
Choose us for your next vacation
Don't miss out on this offer
What I want to achieve is, display the best heading for the right user through a ML model?
One approach is to show all these headings to different users through maybe an A/B/C test and see the statistics and feed the data into the model and optimise it for a certain goal? e.g click through rate, etc
Is there any other way to do something like this?
Do you want to use your own code, or is it fine for you to use an external tool?
If it's fine, I can suggest twik personalization tool.
If you want to use your own code, you need to start with the A/B/C testing, but you need to collect more info about each user (i.e., age group, location, interests & socioeconomic status), not only the text click-through rate. This way, your code will be able to know better to which audience presents each variant.
The Apple App Store has some fairly strict requirements on what content an app can display and still meet the age ratings. I'd like to add a feature that can display content created by any 3rd party which means that, though "adult content" is not appropriate, it's not possible to guarantee that some spammer or vulgar person doesn't post inappropriate things.
I'm considering blocking access to that particular feature of the program for younger users.
How can an iOS app determine the age "category" of its user in order to choose what features to provide?
Other suggestions on how to deal with the issue of un-vetted 3rd party content is also welcome.
Ok so basically you want to know if there is a way to detect the users age and thus display certain features as is appropriate.
Well two ideas come to mind:
IDEA 1
You could try using the built in contacts API to see which contact the user has set themself as. If they have one, then check if it has a birth date. And thus figure out their age.
IDEA 2
Ask the user to enter their birth date in when they launch the app for the very first time. Then figure out the age and save it in a NSUserDefault. You can then use that value throughout the app to determine what features and posts to show the user.
For example playhaven allows to create a concrete set of applications to display. Even if they don't belong to me.
Is it possible to do the same with Flurry? It is hard to understand anything with their awful design. As I understand I must create "a new campaign" but it doesn't allow to advert with a zero budget/price
Are you looking to serve direct sold ads using Flurry? If yes, you can create an 'Advertisers' campaign under the Publishers tab, and set the value in the price field as $0.01. There is a bug in the system which doesn't allow the value to be $0.00. However, since this value is only for your self-reporting purpose, it wouldn't affect ad serving.
For any further queries, please write to support#flurry.com.

I have a strage requirement from a client, he needs to display a ramdom selection (100 - 200 items from mixed categories) of products for sale on & shipped by Amazon but ordered by price. The idea is to allow people find gift ideas based a user input price point.
I have been looking through the API docs but cannot see an obvious way to find search by price, I am thinking of writing a script to "copy" large parts of the amazon product catalogue into a local database & have it update every few weeks, then use this for user searches, but this does not feel right / their must be a better way.
Has anyone any experience with this type of problem? Thanks!
You would want to use the Amazon Product Advertising API. Using this API you would want to perform a SearchIndex-ItemSearch query. Possible parameters to ItemSearch are available on the API Docs here
You can see in the docs that you cannot query by MinimumPrice and MaximumPrice on SearchIndex: All. However, if you search specific indexes, it allows you to do a price related search.
I would guess that you can agree with your client which categories should the items be from. Then you can just query them one by one.
Amazon's database changes very often. Hence, caching data for a week without updating may not be desirable.
The functionality I'm trying to implement is used in a site called Wefollow ( http://wefollow.com/ ):
On this WeFollow each account is checked for
# of followers
# of statuses
How can reliably update the information for each account without bumping into the 2000 queries/hour limit imposed by Twitter?
I'm trying to build a directory and update the same details. How can I deal with this?
Help would be very much appreciated.
EDIT: I'm trying to understand how that site works, not promoting it. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear enough.
If there's a hard limit, there's a hard limit. I would do this by putting all accounts in a rotating queue and updating them in that order up to a given maximum. If you can't cover all accounts, that's too bad. You could also calculate activity values based on deltas per user and prioritise the updating of those users. If a user hasn't changed in a month then there's no point checking that user more frequently than every week. Likewise, if a given user is very active, they can be pushed to the front of the queue.
BTW I would say this is verging on not programming related.
You can apply to have your IP address and account whitelisted which will increase your rate limit to 20,000/hour if you are approved. (http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Rate-limiting)
At FanPageList.com, we update information for our accounts every 2-4 hours. If you look closely at wefollow.com, some of their counts are outdated. Even at TwitterCounter.com, they only claim to update their counts daily (unless you pay for their paid service, they will start tracking your account hourly).
