Where Will Your Adverts Appear?
Your targeted ads will appear in the sponsored links section of a search engine when a user types in a keyword that matches your product or service. These typically appear to the right hand side of the organic results.

This shows where your Pay Per Click adverts will be placed

Organic Results
The search results in the left column are what the search engine deems to be the most relevant results for the search term. No business can buy a position here.

The only hope somebody has to acquire this type of traffic is to use Search Engine Optimization to try to increase the organic position. This can be very costly and results can never be guaranteed.

Why Pay Per Click?
If your website does not receive any of the highly profitable traffic from search engines then Pay Per Click marketing allows you to achieve first page position almost immediately. You pay a small fee each time a potential customer clicks on your advert. The cost per click is managed so that it will always be profitable. If it doesn't work out, PPC can switched off at any time.

Every sale/lead from Pay Per Click can be precisely tracked so that the exact Return on Investment is transparent at any time.

But I'm Already High on the Search Engines?
Many websites already achieve a good position on the organic search results for a limited range of keywords. A website selling Playstation games may already be at position 3 for the search query ‘playstation games’. But what is the position for the search queries –

Playstation games online (page 3?)
Online playstation games (page 5?)
Buy playstation games online (page 2?)
Playstation games next day delivery (page 100?)

The keyword combinations (and your associated website position) are endless. Pay Per Click allows us to bid on a broad range of keywords and achieve first page position for every single one, maximising the profitable traffic that search engines can offer.

Additionally, many users are now looking immediately to the sponsored links when they want to purchase goods or services. They are seen as the commercial results and are immediately relevant to a user who wants to buy goods or services.

Users tend to first review the organic search results when they are searching for free information.

Why Employ consumm8» to Manage your Pay Per Click Campaigns?
Easy to get into and difficult to master; PPC is a marketing minefield.

Establish Agreed Target Cost Per Action
A Cost Per Action (CPA) is the cost that you are willing to spend for a user to reach a desired goal – typically a signup, enquiry or sale.

Lets say that your website sells widgets for £500. Each widget sale brings £100 profit. The CPA would be the cost of generating a single sale. We could agree on a target CPA of £50 so that we use 50% of the profit in each sale to spend on PPC marketing. By working to this formula, the campaign is always profitable.

It is our job to maximise on the quantity of goals reached within the CPA target.

Professional Keyword Selection
Our experience in selecting the right keywords (and covering every possible combination) will ensure that your adverts get displayed when a customer is searching for you. This ensures maximum exposure and increased traffic volumes. Poor keyword selection is usually a major contributing factor in an underperforming campaign.

The search engine is trying to be helpful and expand your exposure. This often has a detrimental effect on campaign performance. consumm8» will manage this waste out of a campaign and spend the money saved back into those search queries that do perform.

Effective Bid Management

Example
Lets say that your website sells widgets for £500. On each widget is a £100 profit. The CPA would be the cost of generating a sale. We could agree on a target CPA of £50 so that we use 50% of the profit in each sale to spend on PPC marketing.

If the keyword BUY WIDGETS ONLINE regularly converts @ 1%, we will ensure that you are spending no more than £0.50p per click to meet the CPA target meaning that each sale will be made on average for £50 or less.
