Success of Paid Search
Engines
- Twenty-eight percent
of consumers go to a search engine and
enter the type of product they're looking
for, while only five percent go to the
shopping channel of a search engine
- Paid search engines
are faring well during the soft online
ad market because they are among the few
that have successfully aligned the needs
of both consumers and marketers.
- Paid search placement
models are succeeding because consumers
are finding relevant listings much faster
on paid search engines, while advertisers
are only paying for qualified lead traffic
on a per-click basis.
