With each new addition the visual components are more enhanced and making data more meaningful at a glance. The tool also gives information to the web publishers about what internet users are looking for on the internet.

 Let’s talk about what these nine new features include.
  • Specify a time period

This feature provides the keyword suggestions and estimated volume around the specified time period. In addition to this a graph also provided which displays a visual of changes over time. If you move a mouse pointer over one of the bar, it will give you the details of the corresponding month.


  •  Period of time comparison

Visual graph display the time period comparisons which we can also perform. This comparison can be made by choosing one of the options i.e. Previous period, Same period last year, and Custom.

Previous period: If this option is selected then it means the set range (for example April 2014 to June 2014) will compare and displays the result for the previous time period i.e. January 2014 to March 2014.

Same period last year: The set range (April 2014 to June 2014) will compare and displays the result for the same period in last year i.e. April 2013 to June 2013.

Custom: This will allow you create your own custom comparison. For easy visuals Google will graph the comparison time if the comparison is set ON.

  •  Visualizing Mobile Trends

In this, a graph is displayed which shows the comparison between the mobile device (green) and all types of devices (blue). Placing the cursor over the bar gives you the volume of the corresponding month.

  • By comparing two periods look at the relative and absolute changes for keyword’s volume and each ad group

This is used to understand what keywords are on the decline or in-flux and this can be done by reviewing total change or percent change.
  • Flexible time periods

The results can be scale (Time period based) to achieve monthly, quarterly, or annual results. Advertisers can specify the time period based estimates in addition to daily estimates.

Intel Unveils A Trio Of New Mobile Chips: Atom x3, x5, and x7 - Coming To Phones, Tablets, And Other Stuff

This week at MWC, Intel revealed its 2015 and 2016 mobile chipset lineup, as well as the fact that the company is adopting a similar naming scheme to its Core line of processors with these new chips. They've been dubbed x3, x5, and x7, and as with the Core processors, bigger is generally better. Intel has long been something of a dark horse in the mobile industry. The company has seen negligible penetration in smartphones to date (though not  none ) and competes almost exclusively in the low to mid-range segment in Android tablets. Of course, as the ultraportable market changes and small, super-thin laptops and convertibles become more common, Intel is swooping in with design wins left and right, keeping the likes of Qualcomm, NVIDIA, MediaTek, and Samsung out of a lucrative market. The Ultrabook swing was a huge help to Intel, a beacon of hope as the world's top chipmaker failed to break into mobile. While Intel struggled to foist itself into a viable position in the ...

Game of Thrones: A Telltale Games Series stars House Forrester. They appeared in George R. R. Martin's novel A Dance with Dragons but haven't been seen in the TV show yet. The Forresters reside in the Wolfswood in northern Westeros. Their stronghold of Ironrath has stood at the edge of Westeros' largest ironwood forest for fifteen hundred years. "Ironrath is a testament to the strength and endurance of Ironwood," Telltale explains . "The Forrester house words are 'Iron from Ice', which echoes their belief that - like the ironwood itself - the adverse conditions and unforgiving landscape of the North only makes them stronger." Like their bannermen at House Glover, the Forresters are loyal allies of the Starks. This puts them right in the middle of the War ...

HTTPS As A Ranking Signal

Security is a top priority for Google. They invest a lot in making sure that their services use industry-leading security, like strongHTTPS encryption by defaul t. That means that people using Search, Gmail and Google Drive, for example, automatically have a secure connection to Google. Beyond their own stuff, they are also working to make the Internet safer more broadly. A big part of this is, they are making sure that websites people access from Google are secure. For instance, they have created resources to help webmasters prevent and fix security breaches on their sites. They want to go even further. At Google I/O a few months ago, They called for “ HTTPS everywhere ” on the web. They have also seen more and more webmasters adopting HTTPS (also known as HTTP over TLS , or Transport Layer Security), on their website, which is encouraging. For these reasons, over the past few months they have been running tests taking into account whether sites use secure, en...
