66 billion searches are made globally every month and a large proportion of these are made by consumers looking for products or services to buy over the internet. Gaining visibility for your business via the search engines is therefore of paramount importance if you are to make a success of selling online.
Pay-Per-Click (also known as PPC / Sponsored / Paid Search) is an online advertising model used on search engines where advertisers pay if a user clicks on an advert to visit the advertiser's website.
When a user types a keyword query matching an advertiser's keyword list, the advert will be displayed on the search engine adjacent to or above the 'natural' or organic search results. Advertisers bid on keywords / phrases relevant to their target market.

The big advantage of using PPC over Search Engine Optimisation (which boosts 'natural' or organic results) is that it delivers instant results and is therefore particularly relevant for new online businesses or to support seasonal and short term campaigns.
Over the longer term too, many businesses find that a combination of PPC and Search Engine Optimisation is actually the most effective way of marketing their products.
