Google AdWords: Cost vs. Payout


< back to articles


There are many ways you can advertise your business online, but one of the best methods is using Google AdWords. This program, linked with the search engine Google, is fairly easy to use and has the potential to reach millions of people around the globe. The payment plan is also very flexible, making it great for companies just starting out—you decide exactly how much money you want to spend. When buying advertising, it’s always important to look at cost versus payout, and AdWords is no different. Make sure you understand how you’re be paying and way, and then compare this to the business pulled in by the AdWords technique.

To set up a Google AdWords account, there is a minimal fee of $5.00. This activation fee is a one-time cost for as long as you maintain your AdWords account. After that, you get to decide exactly how much you’re willing to spend with the cost-per-click (CPC) method. Every time someone clicks on your ad, you’ll owe Google a little bit of money. However, if your ad appears on a page and no one clicks, you’ll owe nothing.

If you want the most clicks possible, Google will have your ad appear at the tops of pages. This means that the CPC will be higher. You can set your budget to a maximum CPC and view Google’s Traffic Estimator if their recommended budget is too high for you. This will tell you exactly how much traffic you can expect every day. The higher you’re willing to go with CPC, the more traffic will come to your site.

The best way to ensure maximum payout from your AdWords is to have your ads read by people who are actually interested in your site. How do you do that? Keywords. This is called search engine optimization (SEO), and you do this by inserting your keyword phrase into the content of your site. If you’re selling used guitars and purchase advertisements around that phrase, having the words “used guitars” on your website often will maximize traffic.

You can also get a higher amount of traffic from your AdWords account if you target the specific location of people who would be interested in your services. If you own an auto repair shop, your business may only be relevant to people within 50 miles, so by indicating your location preferences, you won’t pay for people in Japan to click on your ad.

No matter what AdWords methods you use to draw people to your site and how much you’re willing to pay per click, remember to examine your business after about a month of running AdWords. Are you seeing an increase in customers? If so, how much of an increase. It’s a good rule of thumb to want 5 times of your ad costs in business. For example, if you spend $100 on AdWords, it should generate $500 worth of business for you. If it does not, reexamine your investment. In order to do the best thing possible for your country, it is important to always examine the cost versus the payout and make business decisions based on your numbers.
