How to predict CPC of the keyword?
You can predict CPC for the keyword you are targeting. For instance, I am entering blogging tips as a keyword in keyword planner. The Results I got is given below.
The Search volume of blogging tips is 4400 Monthly, and Suggested bid is 80.40Rs. In this case, we have to see suggested bid. While Suggested bid is not CPC but according to Google, they share 60-70% of the money they get per one click.
In this case, If Suggested Bid is 80.40Rs then we may get 50-70% from that 80Rs per 1 click. For instance, I am ranking on this keyword, and someone visited my site from search engine. He clicked on the advertisement that belongs to this keyword. Now, Google will pay me anything between 50-70% from that 80.40Rs.
In short, I or anyone else can earn about 0.5$-1$ by ranking on this keyword. By these way, You can predict CPC of the keyword on which you want to rank. Do you know that CPC also vary from niche to niche and keyword to keyword? Yes, it happens. Let me tell you the exact reason behind it.
Why do CPC vary from niche to niche?
Must remember, If company owner will get more benefit from 1 click than they will pay you more. For instance, If you are working on some cheap keywords like facebook hacking tricks then you will not even get 1Rs per click. Here is the situation of that keyword,
These happen because there are almost no facebook hacking tricks. Moreover, advertisers will pay less to the Google because they are not earning well. Opposite to this, If you will see the information about “home insurance” in keyword planner, Scene will be completely different. Here is it,
Yes, I know you think that it’s unbelievable. You can earn this much if you can rank for home insurance. The Single click can give you lots of money. They give this much money to the publisher because from 1 click; they can earn a lot! It is because if anyone is interested in taking home insurance then the company can make a lot of money from 1 client.
Now, Let me tell you directly that on what thing, CPC depends.
1. Niche – If the advertiser pays more money to Google, You will get more money from Google. It is simple, If advertiser gets more money from 1 client then they will pay more money to Google.
2. Country – Click from Countries like United States will give you more money than click from countries like India and Pakistan. It is because visitors from United States are more converting then visitors from India and Pakistan. If you target traffic from countries like below given list, you will get more CPC.
- United States

- Canada
- New Zealand
- Slovakia
- Germany
- Norway
- Tunisia
3. Cookies – No one till now told you about this right? Let me tell you. Every time, Google is not going to show advertisement that belongs to your keyword. For example, If the visitor will visit your blog after searching a lot about watches then Google will show him/her ads related to watches. No matter your niche is of 2Rs or 2000Rs, you will be paid according to that advertisement.
