Cost-per-click (CPC)

Cost-per-click (CPC) is a measurement of cost within the Pay-per-click (PPC) advertising model that indicates the cost an advertiser pays each time their ad is clicked by a user.

This measurement is primarily used to drive traffic to websites, and the cost is determined by the competitiveness of the ad’s keyword.

CPC is popular in search engine advertising and helps advertisers control their budget by paying only for actual user engagement with their ads.
