PPC (Pay-Per-Click) Advertising
A Smart Way To See Quick Results
Your customers are using the internet to search for products and services, which means there’s an active audience looking for what your business offers, and an opportunity to make a sale. PPC (pay-per-click) advertising helps you get in front of your target audience through a precise level of advertising.
What is PPC?
PPC is an online advertising model where businesses run ads over the internet and pay a fee each time their ad is clicked or viewed.
It provides an opportunity for advertisers to place a bid for ad placement on various online platforms for their business. Advertisers use PPC to drive traffic, sales, and inquiries from their target audience to their business.
With PPC advertising, you have much more control over your ad campaign’s performance because of the data collection available. Most PPC platforms provide detailed information to help with targeting, meaning you can position your ad to get in front of customers that fit your exact demographic. Additionally, you can evaluate each ads’ views and clicks, and make any changes necessary to improve your campaign’s performance.
Benefits of PPC Advertising:
- A targeted and effective way to reach your ideal customer
- Only pay for clicks, so you’re in total control of your budget
- Everything can be measured, which means you can refine your ads until they produce a positive ROI.
- Drive warm leads and improved sales when you reach customers more likely to convert
Different Types of PPC Ads:
When it comes to PPC there are many different types of ads to consider:
Google Ads
This option lets you run ads on Google. These are the most common ads you’ll see in search results and are tagged with the word “ad” to indicate paid content.
Bing Ads
Bing Ads, also known as Microsoft Advertising, lets you run ads on Bing, Yahoo, and AOL.
Display Ads
These ads appear on Google’s partner websites. Instead of being all-in text ads, these typically include a photo and text.
Social Media Ads
Social ads are one of the most popular types of paid advertising. These ads appear in social media feeds on a variety of platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. These ads are tagged with the word “sponsored” to indicate paid content.
How to Choose the Right PPC Campaign
Determining your customer demographics and where to best reach them is another important factor in choosing the right PPC channel for your business. Essential information like your audience’s buying behaviors will help you determine the best platform to connect with them. Finally, some PPC channels charge more per click than others, so it’s important to factor in your budget when making a decision.
