PPC Advertising

The value of online businesses has dynamically increased due to the credibility of Pay Per Click Advertising (PPC) that has given them a chance to get their ads or search listing indexed at the top of the pack, right up front, perfectly matched to the searcher's query. With PPC advertising various search engines has enabled small online businesses to burgeon. Contemporarily, in the internet marketing the biggest and most powerful PPC system is that of Google AdWords. Positioned down the right hand side of Google’s search results, they are a remarkably commanding method of advertising in the genre of World Wide Web. This branded text-based pay-per-click (PPC) advertising service is 100% keyword targeted aimed at the target audience. This means, if properly carried out, the AdWords advertiser triggers at the right audience that is willing to buy his products/services. The only obligation in the process is that advertisers specify the words that should prompt the flow of traffic to their ads and the maximum amount they are willing to pay per click. The ordering of the paid listings depends on other advertisers' bids against the value of their chosen keywords. The more popular keyword is, the more will be the bidding prices. Every time a search is conducted the keyword or keywords call up these paid ads under sponsored links ensuring the visibility. If the advertisers are ready to pay more for the bidding, their site could also become a feature of other associated search engines. For example Google’s interested top selections are AskJeeves, AOL Search and Netscape. Keeping in view the bidding made by an advertiser, the chosen keyword/s determines the content network that shall feature your ad.
Where Google’s AdWords has become the king of internet marketing, Yahoo’s overture has derived a substantial profit for portals like Yahoo, though it is not a great success. But the core of both services is to get a good ratio of traffic to buying customers by closely targeting the traffic. For that it is essential that the right keywords are used. The performance of PPC campaigns is the cumulative outcome of; the impression rate, the position of ad, Click thru rate (CTR), and Conversion rate. Precise information on the cost of each click on your site can be regarded as potential customers and therefore a proper knowledge should be kept about the site visitor to control the advertising expenditure.
The Pay Per Click ads should be build in accordance with:

· The credibility of the Destination Page Overview. Just having the adword or PPC land on the product page is not enough. You have to sell your/service.
· Content Management
· Construction of the destination page (Each destination page should have a single, specialized and obvious goal)
· Unique Selling Proposition (benefits of the product/services, individuality and superiority of the product/service, influential approach)
· Analytical approach

Google’s AdWords follow up program AdSense is equally lucrative. As an extension of AdWords program AdSense allows webmasters to place text and image advertisements on their sites.
