深入定义
CPC is the pricing model for performance campaigns — you only pay when a user acts. It is the right metric to compare when the goal is traffic rather than awareness. Healthy CPCs depend on niche: fashion and beauty run cheap, legal and finance run expensive. Many marketers use CPC benchmarks to decide when to shift budget from organic social toward paid search or back.
