Why These Keywords Are So Pricey?

The amount advertisers are charged per click not really matters, rather cost per conversion is significant.

Advertisers are ready to pay more per click as having the funds for a pretty high cost per acquisition and as that acquisition is so valuable to the business, it balances the advertising costs.

Marketing and advertising always end to ROI, and you’ll able to get strong ROI from AdWords even with high CPCs providing enough of those clickers are converting to clients.

The smart advertiser is confirming he keeps CPA low by holding costs as much as possible and optimizing for conversions.

Secondly, expensive keywords cover products or services that people look for urgently.

Don’t be scared of AdWords simply because the cost per clicks are higher; consider your ad costs within the perception of your whole business.

A few tips to help you make the most out of your CPC budget:
  • Be Specific: Target specific, 3-5 word keywords. You can use a Keyword Toolto generate specific keyword ideas, both short and long tail keywords.
  • Quality Score: High AdWords Quality Scores can help lower your average CPC. Tools like Keyword Niche Finder can help you divide large keyword lists into smaller, more targeted lists that you can write more targeted ad text for, succeeding in improved Quality Scores and better keyword rankings.
  • Use Negative Keywords: Use a negative keyword tool to find out keywords you do not want to disclose. Irrelevant keywords result in costly clicks that will never drive conversions.
