Auctions and Cost Per Click
Google will charge you for every click generated by your ad(s) at a predefined rate. This auction system is known as Cost Per Click (CPC). The ads with the highest CPC appear above the others. You will need to set maximum daily budget for your campaign beforehand and once this budget is reached your ad will automatically disappear from the Google's pages.
The importance of using the relevant keywords is you can freely choose the keywords for which your ads will appear. Popular keywords tends to be more expensive (some may exceed 40 euro per click). It is also important to define exclusion:
- Geographic
- IP
You will require a Google account (Gmail) to conduct and manage your Adwords Campaigns. For each of your Ads, you will need:
- A title
- A short description (2-line)
- A link (display)
- A destination link
