Protection from Click Fraud

Unfortunately, PPC is not free of crime. Click fraud has spread throughout the net and has increased the cost of PPC advertising. Click fraud occurs when someone clicks on your ad with no intention of buying.

That means that you will be charged for the click, but will not generate any revenue. These costly clicks can be perpetrated by a malicious hacker or by your competition.

The most conservative analysts consider that one out of ten clicks can be considered click fraud. But there are those who think that as much as 1 out of 2 clicks qualify. So, how can you protect yourself? The best way to begin is by consulting your provider about anti-fraud solutions that have proven successful with their programs in the past.

When you begin a PPC program, start with the most basic package. If you choose poor keywords or don't get your webpage content on target, you won't suffer financially. You can expand your package as your understanding of the program grows more sophisticated and you have a sense of how well your ad is performing for you.

Consider the amount of money you have invested in the campaign and compare that amount to the number of visitors who have come to your site and the percentage of those who did and did not make a purchase. Subtract the income from the pay per click cost of the campaign and you can calculate your ROI (return on investment).

So, as you can see, profit, PPC and ROI should be considered synonyms in relation to Internet advertising. PPC programs are available to any kind of organization from the smallest family startup to huge, multinational corporations. Besides the incredible benefits, the adjustable cost of PPC advertising will convince any manager of the potential of the ad genre to maximize his marketing options.
