    What Is Pay-Per-Click? When To Use It - And When Not To
    Copyright © 2006, Robert Fuess

    The only way to really guarantee top placement is to use pay-per-
    click advertising. (This is an advertising mechanism in which you 
    pay for every click of a potential customer.) Most search engines 
    offer this on a bidding basis, and if it generates more money 
    than you spend on it, it can be sound business advise. In most 
    cases, you would DO THIS LAST - after you optimize your web 
    site and implement other promotional techniques. If you do an 
    effective job with your website optimization and promotion, you 
    may already come up top naturally and not have to use pay-per-
    click for several keywords. (This is expecially true for MSN or 
    Yahoo.) Or if you choose to make a big (temporary) advertising 
    campaign while you are optimizing (and have the money for this), 
    then you may consider this.
    
    Some keywords will cost more than others, depending on 
    competition. Some will generate more paying customers than 
    others. Do the math as you go along. Figure out the return on 
    investment. This is seldom a one shot deal and often takes a few 
    months of tweaking to get the optimum pay-per-click bid amount 
    for the different keywords.
    
    YOU WILL FIND SEO COMPANIES THAT GUARANTEE YOU TOP PLACEMENT FOR 
    YOUR FAVORITE KEYWORDS. THIS IS HOW THEY DO IT. They use pay-per-
    click as part of the package and point to the pay-per-click 
    listing, showing you your top placement. The natural links are 
    normally much cheaper in the long run, since once you achieved a 
    top ranking without pay-per-click you will have a steady stream 
    of customers without having this kind of per-click fee.
    
    Google is, of course, an exception. For the first year you will 
    not likely rank for most of your desired keywords despite any 
    valiant efforts on your part. During this period, I would 
    encourage using Google's pay-per-click (AdWords). Although Google 
    is the slowest to recognize your natural ranking - it will give 
    the greatest return in the long run. While you do this - use the 
    information they give you while you manage your pay-per-click 
    keywords. See what is used most often - and what gives you the 
    most sales (conversions). They have tools to help you with that.
    
    ANY SEO FIRM that promises or guarantees top placement for 
    competitive keywords is either selling you pay-per-click or is 
    being boastful. Be wary with your money. You don't need an SEO 
    expert to sign up for pay-per-click. You may use one to help 
    you find the right keywords or perhaps to handle optimization 
    techniques. If they are selling you a package, pay-per-click is 
    often a justifiable part of it. However, don't let such a promise 
    be a decision factor in selecting an SEO expert.
