marketing which operates on a basis of pay-as-you click. Advertisers are paid when a user clicks on
their ads, therefore it is named as "pay-per-click."

platforms like Google Ads and social media advertising, businesses can reach users based on
demographics, interests, and behaviour. This approach ensures that ads are seen by the most
relevant audience which ultimately increases the engagement with the brand.

2. Instant Visibility:
The traditional organic search engine optimization (SEO) take time to yield results, and allot of
efforts are required. PPC ads appears at the top of search engine results pages (SERPs) or within
social media feeds as soon as a campaign is launched. This immediate visibility can drive traffic to a
website which makes PPC a better option for businesses which also gives quick results.

PPC allows businesses to easily analyse how well their ads are doing and can make changes quickly if
required. It means they can track and keep record of how many people are clicking on their ads and
how many of those clicks turn into sales. If something isn't working well, they can adjust or change
anytime. So, PPC gives businesses the ability to measure their advertising efforts in real-time.

need to carefully manage their budgets and bidding strategies to ensure they are getting the best
return on investment (ROI) from their PPC campaigns.

Moreover, PPC advertising requires allot of management to maintain effectiveness. Advertisers must
continuously monitor their campaigns to keep up with changing trends, algorithms, and consumer
behaviour. This process can be time-consuming, cost consuming and required a wide range of
resources particularly for businesses with limited resources.

In conclusion, PPC advertising offers a


huge range of benefits for businesses
seeking to increase their online existence
and increase traffic to their websites. Its
targeted approach, instant visibility, and
measurable results make it a most
