Part 2 will discuss choosing a CPC ratio for your niche.

CPC ratio

The CPC (cost per click) ratio should be high enough to support your efforts. That is, the amount of money an advertiser is willing to pay you for each customer click. You can use a formula to determine a good CPC ratio to use. This is based on the visitors to your site and the retention of those visitors to click. In most cases you can expect a minimum 4% click thru rate.

To determine a good CPC for you, take the number of visitors to your site and multiply by .04, then multiply that number by the CPC offered by the advertiser (in the case of Google Adsense, divide this by 3). The result is an expected amount you would receive per day from those clicks.

For example, If you were to receive 100 visitors a day to your site, you would expect 4 of them to click. If your keyword is paying $6, then you would multiply the 4 clicks by $6 for $24 and then divide by 3 for a final income of $8 per day.

The amount of money you make per day is directly related to the traffic you generate and the CPC rate. The formula above merely illustrates a possibility of how much you should make if your site is optimized and receives targeted visitors.

As a side note: Targeted Visitors are extremely important to your success. If you use every method in the world to get traffic, be assured, the only people who will click are the ones that arrived at your site that is INTERESTED in your niche. For example, if your site is about dogs, don’t expect that someone looking for beauty supplies is interested in clicking your dog related ads.

For this reason, when you are choosing a niche, be mindful of the fact that you want to focus everything on THAT niche, including your traffic. Focus only on targeted traffic, and do not waste your efforts on getting thousands of unrelated, disinterested visitors.
