Video: Cost of Advertising with Google Ads

If you’re looking to launch a PPC campaign, you’re likely curious about the cost. However, with platforms like Google Ads, there is no one-size fits all answer. Since Google Ads is such a customizable platform, you can control your PPC budget and increase or decrease your ad spend as you see fit.

To better understand how much you should expect to pay for PPC, let’s take a closer look at how Google Ads works.

Let’s get started!

How much does PPC cost?

Getting started with Google Ads

With Google Ads, you choose the keywords you want to trigger your ads. Then, you set a maximum bid for how much you’re willing to pay each time someone clicks your ad.

If your bid is among the highest for a keyword or phrase, it will appear at the top of search results with a small tag that shows it’s a paid ad.

One of the best parts of using Google Ads is that you only pay when people click your ads. In other words, you won’t waste money trying to market to people who aren’t interested in your products or services.

While industries like legal and rehab should expect to pay upwards of $30-$40 per click for PPC, less competitive industries may only pay a few cents per click.

How much does PPC retargeting cost?

With PPC, you can also use retargeting to show your ads to people who have demonstrated interest in your business and they browse other websites. Since 96% of people leave a website without making a purchase, retargeting is a great way to remind them of your business and earn more conversions.

But how much should you expect to pay for retargeting?

Just like traditional PPC ads, the cost of remarketing ads varies depending on your industry. On average, you can expect to pay $0.66-$1.23 per click on remarketing ads — slightly less than PPC costs. And it’s estimated that companies spend roughly 10 percent of their ad budgets on remarketing.
