WTF Digital Marketing Moments

Digiday’s newest Tumblr WTF Digital Marketing is a place where people can share the digital marketing moments that make them scratch their heads. It’s happened to the best of us: bad ad placements, crappy landing pages, QR codes where there’s no wireless service.

Here’s some of our latest posts:
