In any case your jobis all about working with data.| As a data scientist you don’t spend most of your time producing cool visualizations or finding great insights. The majority of your time is spent wrangling with URLs, figuring out how to stitch together two tables, hoping that the dates, won’t break, without you knowing, or trying to generate the next 124,538 keywords for an upcoming campaign, by the end of the week!| advertools is a Python package, that can hopefully make that part of your job a little easier.I have a tutorial on DataCamp that demonstrates a real-life example ofhow to use `Python for creating a Search Engine Marketing campaign`_.I also have an interactive tool based on this package, where you can`generate keyword combinations easily`_... image:: app_screen_shot.png:width: 600 px:align: centerMain Uses:~~~~~~~~~~-  **Generate keywords:** starting from a list of products, and a listof words that might make sense together, you can generate a fulltable of many possible combinations and permutations of relevantkeywords for that product.The output is a ready-to-upload table to get you started withkeywords... code:: python>>> import advertools as adv>>> adv.kw_generate(products=['toyota'],words=['buy', 'price'],match_types=['Exact']).head()...        Campaign Ad Group           Keyword Criterion Type0  SEM_Campaign   toyota        toyota buy          Exact1  SEM_Campaign   toyota      toyota price          Exact2  SEM_Campaign   toyota        buy toyota          Exact3  SEM_Campaign   toyota      price toyota          Exact4  SEM_Campaign   toyota  toyota buy price          Exact-  **Create ads:** Two main ways to create text ads, one is from scratch(bottom-up) and the other is top down (given a set of product names).1. From scratch: This is the tradiditional way of writing ads. You havea template text, and you want to insert the product name dynamicallyin a certain location. You also want to make sure you are within thecharacter limits. For more details, I have a `tutorial on how tocreate multiple text ads from scratch`_... code:: python>>> ad_create(template='Let\'s count {}',replacements=['one', 'two', 'three'],fallback='one', # in case the total length is greater than max_lenmax_len=20)["Let's count one", "Let's count two", "Let's count three"]>>> ad_create('My favorite car is {}', ['Toyota', 'BMW', 'Mercedes', 'Lamborghini'], 'great', 28)['My favorite car is Toyota', 'My favorite car is BMW', 'My favorite car is Mercedes','My favorite car is great'] # 'Lamborghini' was too long, and so was replace by 'great'2. Top-down approach: Sometimes you need to start with a given a list ofproduct names, which you can easily split them into the relevant adslots, taking into consideration the length restrictions imposed bythe ad platform.Imagine having the following list of products, and you want to spliteach into slots of 30, 30, and 80 characters (based on the AdWordstemplate):.. code:: python>>> products = ['Samsung Galaxy S8+ Dual Sim 64GB 4G LTE Orchid Gray','Samsung Galaxy J1 Ace Dual Sim 4GB 3G Wifi White','Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Dual SIM 64GB 6GB RAM 4G LTE Midnight Black','Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Dual SIM 64GB 6GB RAM 4G LTE Orchid Grey']>>> [adv.ad_from_string(p) for p in products]... [['Samsung Galaxy S8+ Dual Sim', '64gb 4g Lte Orchid Gray', '', '', '', ''],['Samsung Galaxy J1 Ace Dual Sim', '4gb 3g Wifi White', '', '', '', ''],['Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Dual Sim', '64gb 6gb Ram 4g Lte Midnight', 'Black', '', '', ''],['Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Dual Sim', '64gb 6gb Ram 4g Lte Orchid', 'Grey', '', '', '']]| Each ad is split into the respective slots, making sure they containcomplete words, and that each slot has at most the specific number ofslots allowed.| This can save time when you have thousands of products to create adsfor.-  **Analyze word frequency:** Calculate the absolute and weightedfrequency of words in a collection of documents to uncover hiddentrends in the data. This is basically answering the question, ‘Whatdid we write about vs. what was actually read?’Here is a tutorial on DataCamp on `measuring absolute vs weightedfrequency of words`_.| The package is still under heavy development, so expect a lot ofchanges.| Feedback and suggestions are more than welcomed.Installation~~~~~~~~~~~~.. code:: bashpip install advertoolsConventions~~~~~~~~~~~Function names mostly start with the object you are working on:| ``kw_``: for keywords-related functions| ``ad_``: for ad-related functions| ``url_``: URL tracking and generation.. _measuring absolute vs weighted frequency of words: https://www.datacamp.com/community/tutorials/absolute-weighted-word-frequency.. _Python for creating a Search Engine Marketing campaign: https://www.datacamp.com/community/tutorials/sem-data-science.. _generate keyword combinations easily: https://www.dashboardom.com/advertools.. _tutorial on how to create multiple text ads from scratch: https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/eliasdabbas/ad_create/blob/master/ad_create.ipynb* Free software: MIT license* Documentation: https://advertest.readthedocs.io.=======History=======0.1.0 (2018-07-02)------------------* First release on PyPI.
