Why do people pay for pay-per-click advertising? Huh, why?
I'm looking at the marketing services the eBay owned Pro Stores is offering its ecommerce clients:
OK, so Pro Stores is charging $100 monthly for 50 visitors and $500 monthly for 250 visitors.
The reason I ask "why do people pay for pay per click advertising" is because.....we have never spent one cent on any type of advertising for our site GoSearchFor.com and...well see the referrer counts for the first 19 days of this month from the google and Yahoo search engines below:
7122 http://www.google.com/search
5063 http://www.google.com.sa/search
950 http://search.yahoo.com/search
738 http://www.google.ae/search
441 http://www.google.co.il/search
umm, yeah and ProStores is charging $500 monthly for 250 visitors from Google AdWords and Overture...think I'll pass.
