How
does my website benefit from using E-cola.com's Bid-Per-Click
system? |
|
| |
When a business bids
with E-cola.com's Bid-Per-Click system, the business only pays
when a interested customer clicks on their link. This insures
that your business only pays only for the actual hits you get
to your sites. This is a superior method of advertising since
you only pay for people who are actually clicking your ad to
make an actual visit to your site, which gives you a chance
to turn them into a customer. When you pay for clicks, 100%
of your budget goes toward paying for customers who come to
your site. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
How
does the bid process work? |
|
| |
The E-cola.com Bid-Per-Click
system works on an auction basis. You are bidding for your placement
in the E-cola.com Search Listing based on how much you are willing
to pay for each visitor to your site. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Can
I use any keyword I want? |
|
| |
Since E-cola.com is dedicated
to providing our customers and advertisers the best possible
search results possible we reserve the right to deny key words
to advertisers on the basis of relevancy and appropriateness.
. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
How
long does it take to get listed? |
|
| |
Our online sign up process
can take as little as 5-10 minutes to sign up. Simply visit
the "Sign Up " section of our site to access our online form,
fill out the requested information, and be ready to start receiving
traffic to your site.
Once you complete your order, it takes only minutes for your
order to be processed. You will receive verification via an
email confirmation from E-cola.com once your account has been
approved. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
What
position I should bid for? |
|
| |
There are many factors
that determine what position you should aim for: The relevancy
of the term to the website, current bid prices, ranking, etc.
The options of how much to spend on each keyword is totally
determined by yourself. That's the beauty of E-cola.com's Bid-Per-Click! |
|
| |
|
|
| |
How
does the Bid-Per-Click system handle tie bids? |
|
| |
If two or more keywords
are bid upon at the same price, E-cola.com will give the keyword
to the first advertiser who bid on that keyword the higher position
in the search listings. For example, if there are 3 advertisers
who bid 5 cents on a keyword, they will be listed in order of
"seniority" at the 5 cent price. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Do
I need to bid on both the plural and singular forms of my keyword? |
|
| |
Yes, E-cola.com's Bid-Per-Click
search engine makes a distinction between plurals and singular
instances of words. For instances if you bid on the keyword
"canary" you will also need to bid on the keyword "canaries"
to cover both terms. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
How
much should I deposit into my account? |
|
| |
A deposit of $10.00 is
needed to initialize your account and begin bidding on keywords.
After the initial deposit of $10.00 the amount of funds to keep
in your account should be determined by the number of keywords
that you are bidding for and the amount you are bidding. If
you choose to bid after some of the more popular keywords, you
will want to make a larger deposit so that you do not run through
your funds too quickly. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Are
the funds that I deposit refundable? |
|
| |
Due to the amount of
time that we dedicate to setting up new accounts, any and all
initial and/or first time deposits to E-cola.com are non-refundable. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
How
do I know when the money in my account is almost gone? |
|
| |
When your account gets
low, we will notify you via email. You may also check your client
statistics and add money at any time. |
|
| |
|
|
| |

Type of Payments does E-cola.com accept? |
