What is PPC for Hotels?
PPC is short for Pay-Per-Click and is part of an online advertising model in which advertisers pay a certain amount of money each time someone clicks on an ad placed by them. This type of advertising is often used on search engines, social media and other platforms to drive traffic to a specific website.
PPC for the Hotel Industry
PPC ads are an extremely effective method for hotels to target potential guests, direct them to their own website and increase the hotel’s visibility on search engines like Google. The ads are placed for specific search terms (keywords) that prospects use in their search. This way, hotels are able to precisely address the target group that is most interested in the hotel’s offers and therefore most likely to make a booking.
Advantages of PPC for Hotels
Ads with PPC enable a precise target group approach so that ads are only displayed to people who are already interested in a trip or stay. On top of that, hotels can flexibly adjust their planned budget and monitor the success of their campaigns as well as market changes in order to make adjustments if necessary.
