PPC

PPC (also referred to as Pay Per Click) is a form of
internet
marketing where ads are shown on sites such as Google,
Yahoo! and MSN; each time a visitor clicks on your ad resulting
in a website visitor the respective company will charge you a
fee on a ‘pay per click’ basis. It is recommended that you have
analytics setup so you can
continually check your conversion rates, best landing pages,
best performing ad copy and your websites return on investment
for PPC campaigns.
Keyword
Research
When setting up a pay per click program, it is important
that you select the search terms that are descriptive of your
products and services. While most people select vague phrases,
you want to keep yours extremely targeted. This helps to drive
targeted traffic into your website, rather than broad / generic
traffic.
PPC Ads
Since the payment model is pay per click, you will want to
ensure that those who click are ready to follow through with
your specific call to action; whether it is calling you,
completing a form or placing an order. You can help increase
this conversion by ensuring that there is a call to action in
your ad. This tells the potential buyer/visitor/client what you
are expecting them to do once they get into your website.
Landing Pages
While your website may be a great representation of your
products or services it may not be best suited as a PPC landing
page. Normally landing pages provide key elements which
include:
- Bold Headings
- Introductory Paragraph
- Strong Call to Action
- Form / Order Button
To obtain the best results from your landing pages, strip
away the navigation buttons. As odd as this may sound, visitors
are more likely to click through and visit various pages within
your website and forget why they came; thus forgetting to
complete the call to action. When you are paying on a pay per
click basis you can't afford for this to happen.
