Even in the internet’s short history, pay-per-click (PPC) advertising has become an established and easy method of advertising for manufacturers and publishers alike. The main program which administers PPC advertising throughout the web is Google’s Adwords. Manufacturers enroll in the program, choose targeted keywords and create anchor text and a short sales copy, and Google displays the ad on websites whose content and keyword match the product.
For an advertiser, Google Adwords can be a highly effective campaign. However, the profits generated will depend on the depth of your targeting and the amount of money you are willing to pay for each clickthrough. Since PPC advertisers pay for clickthroughs to their landing pages (from which they make, or hope to make a sale), the publisher does not have to sell the product, only display its advertisement.
This makes keyword selection and targeting crucial for the success of a PPC campaign – if you don’t pick the right and most profitable keywords, you could end up losing a lot of money very quickly. Your visibility for a given keyword also depends on the amount you are willing to shell out for each click, so the more you spend, the greater your chances of getting a clickthrough. However, as I said before, a clickthrough does not necessarily mean a sale.
For publishers too, AdSense (Google’s corresponding ad enrollment program for publishers) can be frustrating. Unless you have an already popular website with lots of traffic and the kind of keywords that generate sales, you will most likely not make much money with AdSense.
Pay-per-view (PPV) marketing has emerged in recent years to address the above issues in PPC marketing. In PPV advertising, when a user visits a webpage, he or she is first shown an advertisement for a certain amount of time. The user may click on or close the advertisement, and correspondingly go to the landing page of the advertiser or the page he or she originally clicked on.
In PPV advertising advertisers pay for each view, not for clicks. However, it is not accurate to think of PPV advertising as impression-based. What it effectively does is put the advertiser’s landing page before the publisher’s, so that the user is required to consider the ad for a few seconds. Within these few seconds, if the user is attracted by the copy and product advertised, he or she is highly likely to click on the ad with a view to purchase.
Pay per view can be a highly profitable method of advertising. For publishers, income does not depend on huge amounts of traffic and the probability of clicking, but rather on the number of page visits to the publisher’s webpage. Every visitor who comes is shown the ad, and the publisher gets paid every time this happens. That said, it is still very important in PPV advertising for a publisher to create the kind of content-driven website that people will actually visit. This will not only directly increase their income from publishing ads but also make their website more lucrative to advertisers.
At the manufacturer or advertiser’s end, PPV marketing can be the most targeted and effective form of advertising available today. You don’t simply pay for a small unobtrusive place on a publisher’s website, but rather push your marketing to every user that visits their page. Furthermore, since PPV advertising is driven by interactive video and image features, it is much more influential on users and has a far greater chance of converting them to sales. While you do not pay for actual clickthroughs, the chances of a clickthrough (and a sale) are increased exponentially, depending on the relevance of the website you display your ad on and the power of your advertising copy.
In this regard PPV marketing may be considered to combine the best of traditional advertising – which is more about pushing a product to users, such as on television and radio – with the best of online advertising, which offers options and means for targeting users like never before. Given its features and high ROI, PPV may indeed replace or displace PPC as the most common form of internet advertising.
