Cool

I've just started looking at PPC and was trying to develop a spreadsheet that would work for me. I've seen some spreadsheets that would challenge Einstein, so this one here is a breath of fresh air. Its a great start because its simple and straight to the point. Thanks!

BTW, math is awesome, stats specifically
This may be a dumb question, but I thought when calculating ROI, shouldn't it be profit/investment? I see here you are using revenue/investment. I guess my main question would be is 0% ROI breaking even or is 100% is breaking even?

PPC is the safest bet. I probably wouldn't do neither one of those anyway.

Provided that anyone still reads this, I have a question - how do you verify that the CTR is correct? I mean, what if you have a completely different demographic/banner than the last advertiser?

According how you state this exercise, and assuming that 1,000,000 impressions will cost you about $350 with let's say 0.25% of clicks and getting a 4% conversion, that is 100 "sales" x $20 $2,000

I think is the best option is C, with a killer banner.

Print adds $9000 = 6 phone calls 4 sales $15000 gross 7 net = don't quit the day job

CPC = $1.70 = WTF I hate google so much I had to buy a few shares

SEO = 2nd year in after quitting the day job making more and working.... in sweats scratching my balls until I feel like going outside

That is the math I bet most of you are doing...

Thanks for the spreed sheet I like the 9900% ROI it came with on pops!

This math is so stressful to take it in head. However, when it's time for the real money then I can do maths well. This post helped me to figure out that I am in the right direction. Thank you very much!

bigdiscount has a spectacular aura about
good question

Personally I'd go with A, but pay for C myself as a goodwill gesture to my client (because C is hardly a risk)!!
B may well be the right decision, but PPC requires a decent level of skill at campaign level. If we assume that the PPC guy/girl has solid experience, then fine - maybe go with it. But if the PPC bod is new to the game, then this option would be a waste of money. Also, PPC campaigns don't generally make money until they have matured and been streamlined. A $500 budget would not allow for that to happen.

More than maths is required in my opinion: common sense.

Very well explain…
Both Do follow and No follow are good to gain your website backlinks. If dofollow links pass link juices , then the nofollow links can bring your huge traffic to your website.
