    The key performance indicators we keep an eye out for are amount of traffic to your website and visitor conversions. We regularly evaluate the amount of traffic that is directed to your website or that your website is receiving, and how many website visitors are actually converting into the desired result based on set goals.
    How much traffic can I expect?

    A specific amount of traffic cannot be stated because it will vary depending on some factors such as: 1) effectiveness of your campaign 2) your PPC advertising ad spend. The higher your advertising budget, the more results we can drive for your campaign.

    A specific amount of conversions cannot be stated because it will vary. We can track the amount of conversions by keeping tabs on the performance data of your ad campaigns and continually make gradual improvements to increase conversion.

    How expensive is advertising on search engines?

    PPC advertising can get expensive because you will pay for every click that leads to your ads destination page. But the quality of traffic is very high because the searchers going to your landing page are already in need of your product or services, which makes it worth the price.
