Does Emily have a blog running? Probably more interesting. #soimtravelingaroundafricawitha******bag
I noticed today that his facebook updates are now appearing in my feed as "sponsored" content... Usually, stuff that I have "liked" show up organically based on date and/or activity. He is now paying to have his stuff show up in feeds.
Wonder how he's financing THAT?

Who is taking the pictures? They all look professional to me.

I think Emily is the photographer?
he bought a canon 60D, so pics are probably a combo of his and hers. what few pics that are in her portfolio (portraits of people they've met in morocco, and monkeys) are better than some of the pics he's posted. But as Guitarsoup pointed out several pages back, she has a tendency to way overuse flash.

If he's marketing it on any scale at all nationwide, he is spending multiple hundreds of dollars.

lol, i know on facebook ads, you can target people that "like" certain things on facebook, are in specific age groups, in specific states or towns, etc. I wonder if he is targeting ads to people that like TexAgs? Almost all the pages i've liked are outdoor/wildlife photographers (so the ads could be reaching me that way), Texas Country Singers, Aggie related pages (FTAB, TexAgs, Aggie Athletics).

Nothing I've seen is something the average person that has a passing interest in photography couldn't do.
I really hope he is spending money to target ads at TexAgs users
quote:i think he is, he's getting a ton of page hits from here. even if you don't go to his page, the hotlinked photos are generating hits. I could be getting his ads b/c of outdoor photographers i follow, but it could be b/c of TexAgs. I do not like or follow anything that he hastags (other than maybe travel photography). There's nothing in my likes for 4x4, jeep, overland, africa, etc. I have zero books, movies or TV shows listed on my page.

If anyone else that follows TexAgs on facebook are getting his ads, let us know what kind of pages you follow that might cause his ads to show up.
somebody sent him a DOSS sticker for the jeep.
I followed him on instagram because of this thread. thats it. I also looked at his blog from my computer. And I got a sponsored ad.

Umm... Facebook is the one watching you.
If you use the same browser for Facebook or their fb login on a site or visit a site that uses the FB share widget (see the bottom right of TA), Instagram (owned by FB), Zuckerberg and company is tracking you the pages you visit all over the web and serving up ads based on where you go.
Dan doesn't have to be smart enough to make the connection to TexAgs - Facebook is doing that for him as they, like Google, have scanned the web and the links shared on their sites to built a massive search index. When they see AggieChemist has read the Texags thread on Dan and then goes to Fb, they decide AggieChemist would be someone one to show sponsored ads about Dan's adventures to.

this pic from emily's website
I presume it's the leader of their camel caravan. Pic was taken with a Canon 5D mk3 on 6/21/16. So Dan is keeping true to his 2-month lag on posting.

So you're saying... We should follow his website and instagram, but don't "Like" his page. Therefore we can use FB's algorithms to target his adds to us, and deplete his ad budget.
Brilliant!
Brilliant!
she also has a pic of the 3 little kids, and it was taken on 6/19

Either Dan and Emily parted ways, or they are already in Senegal together. Emily has a Senegal album, with pics taken from July 21 to Aug 3rd

Edit, If she's in Senegal, what happened to Mauritania?

Is he dead yet?
Doesn't it cost him money every time one of us sees his Facebook ad? If I understand correctly, he has to pay to boost his page and the boost buys him a certain number of views. So, if we all get on Facebook and jump the view count he will keep having to buy more?

Click through every time you see it. That should make him continue the Texags targeted ads.

this monkey pic on her website was taken on 6/18
Looks like you are right.
Wonder why he is delaying everything two months. That has got to be a pain in the ass to keep up with, while trying not to be killed by the locals.
