Bid-Based Pay Per Click – How it Works

In the bid-based pay per click marketing, competition amongst the advertisers is the main keyword.

In bid-based pay per click marketing, it usually starts with the website owner or publisher opening up a space in his website for online advertisements. Interested advertisers will then be asked to enter into a contract which will mean they will have to compete with each other in getting that space to put up their ads.

Website owners then ask for the maximum amount each advertiser is willing to pay for a click on that advertising space. This is usually determined by the targeted keywords of the advertiser. When an online user clicks on the ad, auction then starts.

If however the ad space is that of a search engine results page, the actual biding starts by the time an online user types the keywords on the search engine search box.

Important bid information like the bids on the keywords, the time and location of the searcher are then collected and all bid data are then compared. The website owner then selects the advertiser with the best offer, most often, the advertiser with the highest cost per click because that would mean more money for the website owner.

This is the case when only one ad spot is being opened for bidding. If there are multiple advertisement spaces, multiple advertisers can also win different ad spots on the website. It is also easy to know the winning advertisement since it will be the first to show up.

The winner of the bidding is usually determined by the amount the advertiser is willing to pay, but other factors also determine the winning bid. These factors include relevance of the ad and quality of the ad.
