The website you've just visited has tried to provide you with search results from Google. Unfortunately, the site violates our terms of service so your search could not be completed.
I have been in contact with few of the local advertisers that show up on my site, and have found their web site guy, in long conversations we have found out that my site does convert very well ( 1 in 3 clicks from my site convert to a transaction for them ).
they also told me that it's been costing them less when the clicks come from me ( i don't understand how but I'm not an AdWords member ).
so I think that the Google machine takes my sites, finds good conversion ad's ( increasing my crt ), drops the price for the advertiser ( keeping his cost lower, and my revenue flat - ecpm flat ) and overall does a better job for the visitor and the advertiser ( happy visitor means more people saying hello )
So I am making less revenue per click, which is fine. I am helping my local businesses, which is great, and when a visitor to my site does complete my form I end up happy ( since my goal is to get the information )
in long conversations we have found out that my site does convert very well ( 1 in 3 clicks from my site convert to a transaction for them ).
Let me tell ya, if I could get 1/3 conversion ratio out of an ad campaign, I would be loving life. That is a great ratio. The sponsor should site target your site.
