What is Cost-Per-Click?
CPC stands for "Cost-Per-Click". It is another term used for PPC (Pay-Per-Click). CPC refers to the actual cost or price you pay in your PPC marketing campaign for each time when your ad is clicked by a user.
CPC is a digital marketing metric which is used to figure out the costs of showing ads to the users on search engines like Google, Bing and other advertising platforms. It provides you with an idea about how much you have to invest in your PPC marketing campaigns that increase the productivity of a business and help to increase the growth rate as well.
CPC Formula
Actual CPC = [Ad rank of your competitor/Your quality score + 0.01]$
This CPC gives you an insight about your PPC campaigns and helps you to achieve your ROI.
