cosbgn··on Show HN: Hop.sh a private, bookmark manager for teams
Hello, I've built this bookmark tool for teams which shares a very handy "omnisearch" feature. It allows you to search directly on almost any website you want (like Duckduckgo !bangs). It's very handy to use it for customer support teams to search for an order ID on Gmail, or a doc on Google Drive, or an article on an internal wiki.
cosbgn··on Show HN: Jump.sh – A Twitter List Search Engine to Find You New Customers
Hello,

TL;DR: You can now target your twitter ads/promoted tweets to list members/subscribers!

Twitter ads have a very poor targeting options, so I've built a search engine to find Twitter lists where your customers are. Try to search for example for "Wedding","Crypto", "development", "Marketing" or anything else.

The tool will find most of the list in this topic (I'm still improving the search engine). Once you find a list which you like you can export it as a CSV file and upload it to Twitter as a custom audience and target your ads/promoted tweets only to the member/subscribers of the list.

I've just used it to extract 800K twitter handles of PPC professionals!

Let me know your feedback. Thanks!

cosbgn··on Show HN: Weather.Marketing – A tool to sync FB and Google ads with the weather
Hey there, I've built this clean serverless app. To test it out you don't even need to login, try for example https://weather.marketing/new-flow let me know your thoughts!

Yes I've recently learned that! Imagine that my previous name was SKAG.io I was hoping that the rebranding would be a good move!

Vue is the best! Vuetify is actually more a pain than anything else. Eventually I'll re-write the css. I've been thinking to integrate the Bing editor but the demand has been really low for it so far.

Thank you! I'm happy you like the UI, I put a lot of effort on having many features while keeping it clean!
cosbgn··on Show HN: Fiuti.com – A tool to create Google Ads campaigns 20X faster
Hi it really depends on your setup. To create something like this is nearly impossible with the Google ads interface. The tool for example cross-negates all the keywords and sets them as negatives all the other ad groups, plus you would need to create the same ad for each ad group. If you have 3 maybe it's ok but with 10+ it gets really complicated!

To be honest SKAGs are very popular and I haven't heard that Google would restrict them. Hundreds of Agencies use SKAGs on a daily basis. This said I don't recommend to SKAG 1000 keywords, I usually suggest to create SKAGs for the top 10 converting keywords and group the rest in small topic related ad groups (you can do that with Fiuti using the topics tab)

It's actually 20,000 ad groups per campaign. So yes, you probably don't want to add more than 20K keywords.

Most ad-blockers don't block Google Search ads! If you want to block them you need to set it up. Most ad-blockers have a Acceptable Ads switch.

Hi, you should add that keyword in the keyword planner at https://fiuti.com/app/keyword-planner and click on the keywords you want, look at this quick video I just recorded for you: https://cl.ly/c731c0

Hello everyone, SKAGs (Single Keyword Ad Groups) is on of the best way to structure your search campaigns, however it's very hard to create. Fiuti.com automates the whole creation part and outputs a CSV file which can then be uploaded to Google Ads (So we don't require access to your account). If you have questions please ask!

cosbgn··on Show HN: Topics.io – Automate ads based on weather, CRM, etc.
Yes exactly, the idea is very similar to Zapier, ideally even creating a framework (or API) for users to connect their own integration.
cosbgn··on Show HN: Topics.io – Automate ads based on weather, CRM, etc.
Yes UX is important. We are trying to keep it as simple as possible, with just 3 tabs. Ads, triggers, actions.

Hi, what do you mean with dynamic creative optimization?

as for "already available elsewhere", adwords is definitely the most powerful out there, they do offer AdWords scripts which can be used (knowing javascript) to accomplish most of this, you are right.

As for Facebook and others, I don't think this is the case. Googling I found this: https://www.facebook.com/business/help/community/question/?i... and it's for weather (probably the most common trigger), imagine CRM, or Google Analytics Goals. Could you please point me out to some docs on how can I accomplish this nowadays on other platforms?

Interesting, I can't find their price on the website. Do you mind telling me more or less their price point?

How about "blacklist all countries where bounce rate is > than 80%". Would that make sense?
cosbgn··on Show HN: Topics.io – Automate ads based on weather, CRM, etc.
Yes, exactly. Weather will be more for local businesses, restaurant deliveries etc. CRM and Google Analytics goals/page views more for SAAS/ecommerce.
cosbgn··on Show HN: Topics.io – Automate ads based on weather, CRM, etc.
I don't think they use weather, but honestly, working in this field I would stay as far away as possible from auto-optimizations. For example adwords express delivers much worst results than a normal adwords campaign. As of today, I would keep all optimization in my hands, in the future, this will probably change. (This said do keep the pixels they offer many other advantages!)

Also, can you think of any trigger which could make or break your business?
cosbgn··on Show HN: Topics.io – Automate ads based on weather, CRM, etc.
Hi @hartator, yes we don't plan to add 100 triggers, however, we do plan weather, Google Analytics (for Goals, inventory and all that) time/date and few CRMs. I think these are important to build a solid product, in any case, we will release one at the time.

Regarding make or break I understand. We are working on a tool where you can set up triggers and it analyzed your past data to tell you if your market depends on that trigger. E.g. you set weather is sunny, we check in the past 60 days your conversions for sunny days and not sunny days and tell you if there was a difference or not. If there was, we can save you money (or make you more money) if there wasn't we will tell you directly that you won't need this for your market.

Hi @sunsetMurk, did you signup for the beta? We are reaching out to each user to build user stories and build a set of templates based on those. In any case, AdWords should be out in ~10 days and Facebook shortly after.

cosbgn··on Ask HN: How to generate a truly random and verifiable number online
Yes that's exactly what I mean. However I can't solve 2 problems on this kind of approach, first it's not within a range (e.g. 1 and 144) and secondly I'm not sure every number has the same probably to come out.
cosbgn··on Ask HN: How to generate a truly random and verifiable number online
Thanks, I'll read it
cosbgn··on Ask HN: How to generate a truly random and verifiable number online
Hi Colin, with verifiable I mean that I don't need to make a screen-recording of me going on Random.org and get the number. I want something which can be checked and verified by anyone, some sort of "true" unique random number, the national lottery could be one because anyone could open a newspaper/browser and check it, it would be really hard for me to fake it.

Nice! Looks useful
cosbgn··on Show HN: AbTest.io a free url shortener with A/B testing features
I don't add any cookies. What I do is that I add Google Analytics tags, for example if you select the page /home and /home2 I'll split the users between /home?utm_campaign=AbTest&medium=a&utm_keyword=abcd and /home2?utm_campaign=AbTest&medium=b&utm_keyword=abcd (or something like this). So then I can filter the results and show you exactly the conversion, bounce-rate, exit-rate and all those metrics for that precise test. Does it makes sense?

I think my messages is still a bit unclear. I'll work more on the landing page.
