There are some advantages of online advertising over offline methods. One of them is that it is available round the clock. People log on to the internet anytime. Thus, it is a perpetual marketing machine. On the other hand, television advertisements are unlikely to get much attention late at night. However, online advertising is rarely more expensive. This is an important consideration for many businesses. In addition, online ads are incredibly responsive to changing conditions.

Low cost
Using social media to promote your business is a great low-cost way to reach your target audience. By boosting your posts, you will increase the visibility of your content. You can target your posts to a certain audience, such as your existing customers. In addition, boosted posts are more likely to receive clicks than standard text ads. These types of ads are especially effective for reaching the right audience for your products. But how can you make use of them?

Traditional forms of advertising can cost you thousands of dollars, but a new method has emerged called pay-per-click. With this method, you pay a set price for each click, which may range from a few cents to several hundred dollars, depending on the complexity of the ad. In a small to medium-sized business, the average monthly bill for this form of advertising is around one-fifth to one-tenth of anticipated revenue.

Specific prospect targeting
One of the advantages of online advertising is the ability to target your prospects. You can use retargeting to serve ads based on past engagements, and you can also create an ideal customer profile to target. Once you know what your ideal customer looks like online, you can use this information to serve your ads to others who have exhibited similar characteristics. In this way, you can increase the chances of conversion with your ads.

Cost
One way to measure the cost of online advertising is to use Pay Per Click (PPC) ads. These advertisements run on a bidding system and require the advertiser to pay a certain amount each time their ad is clicked by someone. The cost per click may range anywhere from pennies to hundreds of dollars. For a small to medium business, this means about $9,000 - $10,000 per month. Using this method, the cost of online advertising is usually divided into CPCs and CPMs.

Depending on the number of followers you want to attract, you can pay from $48 per day to $450 per month. You can also pay to promote your business on social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. However, be aware that the cost of social media advertising may vary widely from platform to platform. Facebook ads tend to be more expensive, but Instagram is a lot more affordable than Facebook. In order to get your website noticed by search engines, you may need to invest thousands of dollars every month.
