HOW IT WORKS |
PPC advertising is an online advertising model that allows you to place ads on search engine results pages (SERPs), social media sites, and other websites. With PPC, advertisers bid on keywords and pay only when a user clicks their ad. When users click your PPC ad, it brings them to landing page* on your website. ADVANTAGES OF PPC ADVERTISING 1. You set the maximum budget for your ads 2. You only pay when someone clicks your ad 3. You can compete even if your search engine rankings aren’t high 4. You can easily test different ads 5. You can gain more brand recognition 6. You can launch a PPC advertising campaign in no time 7.

STEPS TO SUCCESSFUL PAY PER CLICK MARKETING |
|
HOW TO MEASURE SUCCESS |
1. Set your Objectives -- Start off by clarifying what it is you want to achieve with this advertising campaign. Do you want more site visitors? More email subscribers? More customers? Define your business objectives before going any further. 2. Determine the Budget -- ...always seek to optimize your campaign to avoid wasted spend. Consider your industry, your competitors, and the keywords when setting your budget. 3. Define Your Target Audience -- Who are you selling to? Do you understand their needs and pain points? With multiple campaigns, you can target various audience segments. 4. Identify Valuable Keywords -- ...pick relevant keywords that relate to your business, and also to the needs of your target audience. 5. Narrow the Field with Negative Keywords -- Instead of wasting money on irrelevant clicks, stay vigilant by adding negative keywords to your campaign. 6. Identify Competitive Advertising -- When you have a good understanding of your audience, you can compare your brand favorably to the competition, making your ads more attractive to prospective leads.
7. Optimize Your Landing Page -- Your landing page must have a strong focus on CRO (Conversion Rate Optimization). Try:
8. Track Conversions -- Performing regular analysis here will help you find the most effective keywords and ads, which help you cut your losses and invest in the areas that are generating results. 9. Focus on the Channels that Work -- Analyze your results in the early period, and adjust as you see fit. 10. Search Network vs. Display Network -- The Display Network is a little different. It helps your brand reach people while they are browsing. Over time, you can determine which avenue works best for you and your goals. 11. Learn From Competitors -- With an in-depth competitor analysis, you can glean insights that help you improve your own strategies and methods. 12. Determine Device Bids -- You can adjust your bids at the campaign level, or at the ad group level if you want to adjust each device bid individually. Knowing your audience will help you with these decisions. 13. Identify the Right Reporting Tool -- You should keep a close eye on all your campaigns and analyze the key metrics to determine if your ads are successful.

Out of a number of possible KPIs (or Key Performance Indicator*), these are the most vital PPC metrics you need to focus on to determine your PPC campaign result: 1. PPC ROI/ROAS -- ROAS (Return on Ad Spend) is concerned with ratio of ad spend to income or revenue, while ROI (Return on Investment) looks at whether the money being made is greater than money spent. 2. Cost Per Acquisition/Sale --The average spends for conversions and clicks may vary broadly by ad group and campaign. Consider factors such as your keyword bid rate, investment amount, and quality scores . Decrease Cost Per Acquisition by:
3. Conversion Volume -- the number of users that convert in a certain time frame 4. Close Rates** -- A lot of conversions are simply opportunities, not sales or customers... If your campaigns close rate is a lot less than the conversion rate, it’ll offer you the opportunity to enhance the internal transit right from acquisition to closing or improve lead scoring. 5. Cost Per Click -- have control over the amount you spend on certain keywords by managing your bids right from the keyword level 6. Average Order Value*** -- tracking your Average Order Value weekly or monthly offers insight into the purchasing habits of your customers 7. Lifetime Value -- how much a single client or customer spends on your business before ending the relationship and not coming back. This isn’t just a powerful investment; it will also massively enhance the probability of future conversions. 8. Quality Score -- largely depends on three factors: possible click-through-rate; ad relevance; landing page quality SOURCE and for detailed information on how to measure success of CCP Advertising, please refer to: * WIKIPEDIA -- A performance indicator or key performance indicator (KPI) is a type of performance measurement.[1] KPIs evaluate the success of an organization or of a particular activity (such as projects, programs, products and other initiatives) in which it engages. ** The Online Advertising Guide -- Close Rate is the percentage of leads which turn into conversions. You calculate it simply by dividing your conversions (from your leads) by all the leads you had (and then multiplying by 100 to turn it into a per cent. *** Big Commerce -- Average Order Value (AOV) is an ecommerce metric that measures the average total of every order placed with a merchant over a defined period of time. |

AFFILIATE MARKETING | ||
|

WHAT IT IS | HOW IT WORKS | |
Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing tactic in which a retailer, typically an online one, rewards a website with a commission for each customer referred via the website’s promotional activities. The website, often called an affiliate, will only get paid when their promotion results in a transaction. SOURCE: HUBSPOT

|
|
STEPS TO SUCCESSFUL AFFILIATE MARKETING |
HOW TO MEASURE SUCCESS | |
1. Understand what is driving the rise of affiliate marketing and work with it, including great content, putting more budget into affiliate marketing and working at a more personal level. 2. Look for the main trends that influence affiliate marketing at any given time, and incorporate them into your strategy. 3. Build an affiliate marketing performance-partnership that works for both sides, be selective about who you work with, and ensure they match your brand, as well as help drive new customers. 4. Look to work closely with those affiliates who provide you with the biggest turnover, but also deliver on quality and value metrics. 5. Ensure your affiliates understand your model and adhere to it, and monitor and review at regular intervals. |
Key Performance Indicators to Watch: 1. Clicks vs number of sales This is, in essence, your conversion rate. It should go without saying that your affiliate conversion rate is a vital KPI to keep watch over. There could be a few things at play here. The audience may not actually be getting the product they thought they were, suggesting that either the publisher is pushing your product to the wrong audience or that the product or service is being marketed incorrectly. On occasion, this kind of discrepancy in numbers could also mean that a publisher could be engaging in illegitimate tactics to boost their numbers, depending on how you have established your commissions. 2. Cost Per Action and Commissions Calculating your Cost per Action (CPA) is an important affiliate marketing metric to be able to quickly assess if your campaign is running successfully. By looking at the overall CPA you can see which affiliates could be driving that number up or down. 3. Segmenting your affiliates Different types of affiliates can impact different stages of your end client’s buying process. Categorizing your publishers by how they’re making sales or the type(s) of content they are creating can help you understand which area works best for you and your business. 4. AOV Also known as Average Order Value or Basket Value, this is a great metric that goes just beyond how many final clicks a publisher garners. 5. Reversed sales rate Sometimes known as your chargeback rate, this is your gross sales vs net sales. While a publisher might be creating a large number of sales in the first instance, this assesses the quality of the customers. If an affiliate’s reversed sales rate is high they may be incorrectly representing your product to their audience. This dampens both their brand and yours. 6. Percentage of new customers ... a successful affiliate program should be continuously drawing in new customers. Without this growth, your money isn’t being well spent. 7. Growth year on year Over time it’s beneficial to assess your year on year growth with the program to identify areas for improvement. In this process, you could also identify your top 10 performing publishers and consider why they’re doing so well.
