Sometime, Google tends to not say the whole true and to exaggerate,
masking their real intent. Lets see what are the aspects that really affect us
as an agency.
Really???

5. Reality is sometimes different from what engineers expect
Google in an enterprise company and as a such they need to work in a
distributed environment where even the simplest thing requires ages.
As a result of this and this long and tedious internal communication process,
quite often the most obvious thing are left behind.

6. What does this change mean for SEO?
Google aims to help you find the best answers to your questions, and
sometimes the best answers come from your friends.
Search Plus Your World, is the name that has been given to this feature.
However, at a first glance, results mashing with social media are likely to not
produce the expected relevancy between user queries and results in SERPs.

7. What does this means on the analytics side?
No changes on how Google will handle information on websites visitors.
The only change for Google Analytics users under the new privacy policy is
that now information about how you interact with the Google Analytics
interface may be shared with other Googles products.
Not everybody knows this, but Google Analytics interface is tracked by the
team using Google Analytics itself.

8. What does this mean for PPC?
By sharing Google AdWords
campaigns insights, Google will be
able to analyse the historical
conversions and customer
reaction over time.
This is going to provide more
specific insights on the cost per
click with less room for
speculations.
Also Google will probably create a
new way to target consumers by
generating Personas like Facebook

9. What does this means for display?
Google will not link consumers Google account information with browsing
data collected through its DoubleClick cookie.
However, logged consumers activity will be integrated in the cross-product
targeting mechanism too. This will help Google bolster sales on its display
network, which has lagged behind others such as Facebook.

10. So the biggest advantage for Google is
A better customer segmentation, which will allow Google to create real
personas, thus helping them serve better Ads primarily, and secondly an
augmented search experience, more pertinent and in line with what the
user is looking for.

11. Ohhhh I dont really like this.

12. The Google answer is
As a matter of fact, yes you can,
but this will mean cancelling
your Google account.
As professional marketers, we
heavily rely on Google services,
so unlikely we will do this.
And with more than 70% of
market share on the search
space, I do think that customers
will accept the new policy
without questioning themselves
too much.

13. European Commission turned up the nose too
On a separate note, institutions raised questions. About two weeks ago, EU
commission asked Google to delay the introduction of the new privacy law.
EU claimed they want enough time to understand the implications of this
change and they have nominated the French Privacy Authority as the only
supervisor for this task.
Similar situation in the US, where some politicians enquired the company.
