03Pay Per Click: Determining the Rate per Click of your Ad
Filed in: Internet Marketing by Sean Galusha on 07-03-09Online advertising has been a major component of the internet. Online advertisements may be in the form of banners or text links. For an owner of a website, hosting these ads are means to compensating his efforts in making his website and giving information in his site.
Putting ads on website also gives the website owner an opportunity to make money from his website. Pay per click is even one moneymaking venture in the internet that can be participated in by website owners. It is important to take note though that making money through pay per click depends on the clicks to the ads posted in your site and not just by merely posting them.
In pay per click, the number of clicks that the ads in your site can generate will be the determinant of your earnings. In this scheme, business owners will only pay you for every click of an ad, which eventually means, every interested online customer that will be sent to the business website.
However, the rate or the cost of one click is determined in two ways in pay per click marketing. One way is using a flat rate and the other one is using the bid-based rate.
In the flat-rate method, the cost of a click is determined by an agreement between the business owner and the owner of the website. The rate is usually based on the traffic to the website, and of course the relevance of its content to the business. Business owners also usually keep a list of rates for every webpage he wants to put his ads to.
In the bid-based method, the cost of a click is determined by how much a business owner is willing to pay for one click to his ad. If the business owner wins the bidding, the maximum amount he bids for a click will be the cost of a click to his ad. The bid-based pay per click is usually used in advertising in search engines like Google. The winning bidder will then have an ad spot in the search engine results page.
The cost in pay per click though has no standard rates. It is generally based on how much a business owner is willing to pay for a click on his ads, whether the ad spot is on the search engines or in websites. One important thing in pay per click though is that, more traffic would eventually mean, having an opportunity to have a higher pay per click of the ads posted on it.
