Make the Right Decisions for Your Brand With PPC Advertising

Today, the digital landscape keeps growing and websites are proliferating at warp speed. From small companies and franchises to eCommerce businesses and entrepreneurs, almost everyone is on the internet, figuring out advertising avenues and maximizing all possible conversion paths. Increased marketing opportunities, however, come with greater challenges.

Despite the availability of advertising tools and digital marketing channels, some businesses remain invisible to their target audience. As a result, market players are in an uphill battle, barely making progress with their internet marketing efforts.

Major challenges online companies face:

  • Increased competition
  • Surge in ad blockers
  • Strict industry regulations
  • Changing customer demands
  • High digital ad spending
  • Varying market standards
  • Elusive consumers

Even social media marketing has become a big hurdle for many companies. Before, social media platforms allowed businesses to reach millions of prospects worldwide for free. Over time, social media giants have started launching ad regulations that require advertisers to pay more to get their content in front of their ideal customers. This becomes an issue because not all marketers have the capacity and resources to launch and support on-going social media campaigns at scale.

Besides web development and social media marketing, search engine optimization (SEO) is also one of the most crucial aspects of gaining higher brand exposure. The problem with SEO and other internet marketing strategies, however, is they take time, effort and a relatively large investment of capital before you see the results.

If you’re looking for an immediate campaign boost and a fast return on investment (ROI), pay per click advertising is a profitable choice. Maintain full control of your paid search marketing efforts and acquire positive business outcomes with targeted PPC services.

 

PPC is the acronym for pay-per-click. It's a digital marketing tactic and it buys web traffic to your website. You, the advertiser, pays a small fee each time one of your ads is clicked on by a user. Search engine advertising is the most popular form of PPC. However, many other platforms such as social media giant, Facebook, now offer PPC ad models. You can promote your company in search results, on websites and across social media platforms. PPC ads can feature text, images and video.

Ads that appear in search results are targeted to meet a specific audience and often earn almost half of all page clicks. Users who click on paid ads are usually ready to make a decision and therefore more likely to buy a product or service by comparison to an organic visitor. With PPC ads, your ads are targeted for the online users searching for your type of business. This can make a significant impact on your bottom line.

The cost of running a PPC ad campaign varies. Different cost factors include your industry type, business type and business size. These will influence the pricing of your PPC ad campaign. Pricing can also be affected by the type of strategy you're rolling out. However, expect to spend up to $5,000 per month for a small-to-medium company. This price includes both your ad spend and professional services from your chosen PPC agency.

Your PPC costs must be calculated based on your bid, your targeting and your ad quality. The amount of money you're willing to spend for a user to click on your ad is called your bid. You enter your bid into an ad auction and the highest bidder wins, so you could end up paying less than your bid amount, but never more. Targeting factors include all aspects of your goal, from the keywords you’re ranking for to the demographics of your audience. The more competitively you want to target, the higher the costs. For instance, bidding on a very competitive keyword costs more because it features a higher cost-per-click (CPC). Google also monitors the quality of your ads. If your ad quality is high, you can often maintain lower costs because Google will rank your ad ahead of competitors with low-quality ads. Understanding and accounting for all of these factors are how you determine your PPC budget.

PPC is a flexible online advertising method that lets you create a budget and adjust it at any time necessary. Most importantly, you can target your ideal audience directly, which is impossible with traditional advertising or digital marketing campaigns. The insights gleaned from the data tracked from PPC campaigns is invaluable because it gives you a better idea of your users' behavior. Your paid advertising campaigns appear ahead of all organic results in search results, helping you to instantly outrank your competitors and support your search engine optimization (SEO) efforts.
