= = = = = Per Click = $0.01 = 5000 Clicks = 5% CTR = 100,000 Impressions = $50.00 Per Click = $0.10 = 5000 Clicks = 5% CTR = 100,000 Impressions = $500.00 Per Click = $1.00 = 5000 Clicks = 5% CTR = 100,000 Impressions = $5000.00 = = = = = If you think of this plot as a daily target, 100,000 impressions could be anything around the region of 70,000 daily uniques. If you think about the CTR as well, 5% is actually very high as an average. I guess most people go for $50.00 as a daily target and so this is why I used this figure. I know clickrates vary, but how many $0.01 (or less) rates do you see these days thanks to the economic crisis and the arbitrage folk? If you believe 100% that you can manage $0.10 clicks, then to reach $50.00 daily you would require 10,000 impressions which could be in the region of 7000 daily uniques, again using a high average of a 5% CTR. If you can average out dollar clicks then obviously this goes down to 1000 impressions and 700 daily uniques to reach that magic $50.00. I know that these figures can come and go and are a little rough, but atleast it gives a fresh outlook on what's required these days when you are opting for the Gung-Ho approach. Cheers.
So far my status is $0.20 CPC, 5%CTR, 400 impression per day Therefore, aiming to get more traffic now, target on 2000 impression per day id good enough for me
I hope Google soon update the accounts allowing you to study more the average CPCs, also providing more infomation on where the converting traffic is coming from. You both seem to be on the right track, keep it up. Mine is all over the place, I got a $1.29 click in the morning and shortly after a $0.01 click - which shows just how difficult it is to average out the number game (in relation to traffic estimates).
