PPC stands for Pay Per Click advertising. Google were the first to start PPC and is one of the reasons for their amazing success. Started in 2000 and branded AdWords, their DIY pay per click advertising system connected business with customers. In this system, anyone can bid to have their ad shown next to the organic search results for specific keywords. Currently Google shows these sponsored ads on the side and (usually) the top of the organic results.
Generally speaking, the more you bid for a keyword, the higher your ad will appear on the page. What makes this model so popular over other advertising methods is the fact that you “pay per click”. In other words, you only pay if someone actually clicks on your ad and visits your website.
Advantages of Pay Per Click Advertising
- Instant Traffic – After you setup a PPC campaign, your ads will often start showing within about ten minutes. Your site can be launched and guaranteed visitors within minutes.
- Targeted – It’s easy to monitor which keywords bring visitors that actually convert and which don’t. Then you can focus your ad spend on the highest converting keywords.
- ROI – If you could spend a pound to make two pound, how much would you spend? That’s exactly how a well optimised PPC campaign works. Over time your campaigns will become leaner and focused on ROI. This can be done with constant monitoring and detailed analysis.
Disadvantages of Pay Per Click Advertising
- Every Visitor Costs Money – Some visitors may remember your site and come back again, but overall when you stop paying, the visitors stop coming.
- A High Converting Website is Critical – A good PPC campaign can drive lots of targeted traffic to your site, but if your site doesn’t convince those visitors to convert, it’s all wasted money. A good web marketing company will help to optimize your site to convert.
- Competition is Growing – The amount of competition for those top 10 ad spots is growing every day. This can only drive the cost per click up over time.
