New Reddit and Windows ads, another cookie update, and more

Shopping? On Reddit?

Sure, why not: Reddit’s new Dynamic Product Ads are currently in a public beta, but apparently early tests have shown a 1.9x greater ROAS compared to conversion campaigns.

Sounds like they’re worth testing… as long as you respect Reddit culture.

And speaking of channels, Windows 11 now officially hosts ads in its Start menu. You knew it was coming.

Heads up: Users can turn these ads off pretty easily. Just something to be aware of if you decide to try them. They haven’t been popular among Windows users in the past…

Let’s do it next year: As we mentioned yesterday, Google is pumping the brakes on deprecating third-party cookies… for the third time.

Delaying moving is delaying the inevitable, especially since Google has disabled cookies for 1% of users.

Last thing: Apple just made Search Ads available in more countries, so if you’re in Brazil, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, and the others on the list, you’ve got another channel to try. Hooray.

We mentioned this at the end of last week, but… In case you missed it, TikTok has no intention to sell. So if the bill goes to court and loses, marketers in the US will have to kiss it goodbye in about a year. Once again, if it’s your main platform, it might be a…
