Understanding Pay-Per-Click
Using PPC to Make More Money Online
The sponsored listings, or pay per click (PPC), offered by Google Adwords, Yahoo, MSN and others have supercharged ---and complicated--- online advertising. Simply put, PPC enables you to bid your way to the first page of the search results for any term related to your product or service. Properly managed, PPC is a powerful, cost-effective action-driven marketing tool. It can revolutionize your business by directing pre-qualified, demographically targeted clients to your web site, immediately. BUT, without proper controls and monitoring, your PPC campaign results will range from disappointing to disastrous.
Successful PPC Campaigns
Let's agree that the goal of your PPC campaign is to have search engines direct more of the right visitors to your web site for less cost. Let's also agree that 'the right visitors' are those who:
- Respond to your contact us prompts, or
- Add your products to their shopping cart, or
- Call your 1-800-number.
The PPC Question
If you have ever run a PPC campaign, you'll know why you have to constantly monitor and adjust:
- Bid amounts
- Keywords
- Visitor Conversion Ratios
- Visitor navigation footprints
and other variables that can dramatically impact your PPC return on investment (ROI) Without continuous monitoring, your PPC campaign will work only to increase Google shareholder value, not your bottom line. Successful PPC campaigns continually 'fine-tune' the parameters of your promotion so that:
- Your ad doesn't drop below the radar in a keyword bidding war
- Your costs are kept under tight control
- You attract 'the right visitors'
- You convert more visitors to clients
There are so many interlocking variables to adjust, this can become more an 'art form' than a science. Apart from that some of the information you need to optimize your campaigns just isn't available.
Call tracking for example. How do you track the source of your 1-800-number calls? How do you know if they are the result of your PPC campaign or other marketing efforts? How do you get these details in time to make corrections? Well, of course, until VizMax you couldn't.
