PPC FAQs

What is PPC?

PPC, or pay-per-click, is a model of advertising used online which charges advertisers each time one of their adverts is clicked. This model was popularised by search engines and is now widely-used across a variety of platforms.

Paying for clicks, rather than reaching a specific number of people, allows advertisers to be more confident their advertising budget is being spent on reaching potential customers and ensures ROI is maximised.

How does PPC work with other marketing channels?

Managed correctly, a PPC campaign is the perfect accompaniment to any marketing campaign, digital or otherwise.

Whether you’re looking to keep in touch with people who have visited your site but not converted, ensure you’re always front-of-mind when people are searching for products or services in your industry, or reach entirely new groups of people quickly and effectively, PPC can help.

Alongside this, insights only gained through PPC can give you a fresh perspective into how your customers behave online. Feeding these into the rest of your team can help your marketing campaign as a whole become more effective and help you better meet the needs of your customers throughout the sales funnel.

How long does it take for PPC to work?

You can start seeing results from PPC almost as soon as the campaign is launched.

However, all campaigns require time to fully ramp up and need alterations following launch, meaning we’d typically advise holding back on making snap decisions for at least three months. 

Unlike other marketing activities, however, your PPC campaign will be directly generating revenue throughout this bedding-in period. Search campaigns, in particular, can be made profitable very quickly. The difficult part is ensuring your ROI is maximised consistently.

What are the different PPC platforms?

There are a huge number of online platforms which provide the ability to buy ads on a pay-per-click basis. Some of the most popular platforms include:

  • Google Ads
  • Bing Ads
  • Facebook Ads
  • LinkedIn
  • Twitter
  • AdRoll

Each of these has different strengths and allows you to reach a variety of audiences at different stages of the buying cycle. Whether you’re looking to reach people when they search, increase your brand awareness amongst relevant audiences or implement a comprehensive retargeting programme, there’s a PPC platform perfect for your needs.

How much does a PPC campaign cost?

The cost of a PPC campaign varies dramatically depending on the industry you’re working in and the network you’re using to advertise.

On Google Ads (the world’s most popular PPC platform), the average cost per click is around £1.50. Industries such as insurance and law, for example, can see these increase to £50 per click or more, however. On the other hand, you can buy clicks for less competitive terms for pennies.

If you’re operating on a tight budget, we can help establish a baseline of what may be required to achieve success on any platform.

What do I do if a competitor is bidding on my brand name on Google?

Businesses bidding on the brand names of their competitors in an attempt to entice them away is becoming an increasingly common practice on Google. And, unfortunately, there’s often no way to stop them from doing this.

If a competitor is bidding on your brand and using your trademarked name in the ad you will be able to request that specific advert is taken down, but bidding on a brand as a keyword is not against any terms or laws, meaning businesses will be free to continue doing so as long as their ad copy is compliant.

The simplest way to combat this is to bid on your own brand name. Your ads being highly-relevant will typically be enough to ensure you get the top spot in the paid listings for your own name for a much lower CPC than average.

Before doing this, however, it’s important to double check your rival meant to bid this way. It may be an honest mistake from their PPC manager which can easily be rectified.
