With the growing importance of privacy awareness as a result of the new GDPR law that was implemented in the EU on May 25, 2018, WordPress is encouraging its users to take advantage of the new privacy features that are available in their most recent core update. This enforced law ensures that websites and the businesses that run them remain transparent about the personal data that they store, use or share. To help accommodate this transition, WordPress 4.9.6 has been released as a Privacy and Maintenance release.

No Comments on Experimental Phrase-Free AdWords Campaigns Serve Local Ads

While there is currently no way to request access to this program, it was initially unlocked for some small business advertisers in late February. Although still in early-development, phrase-free AdWords campaigns may provide effective local ads in the future.
