Many thanks to Michael Trusov (Robert H. Smith School of Business, University of Maryland) for sharing his latest research on the question of what predicts a firm’s visibility on search engine results pages. His proposed model helps managers to better assess an ad’s location performance and optimize rank bidding strategies. Michael is a leading scholar in social media marketing, search engine marketing, social networks, clickstream analysis and other topics in the broader field of internet marketing. We thank Michael for his visit at WU and for sharing his knowledge with us. Our upcoming guest speakers will be announced soon.
