PPC

Brief written greeting

PPC stands for pay-per-click, an online advertising model where advertisers pay each time someone clicks their ad.

It's the dominant model for search engine advertising—when you search for something and see sponsored results, those advertisers pay only when you click through: Our PPC campaign generated a thousand clicks at two dollars each.

PPC also abbreviates other terms in specialized contexts, including pixels per centimeter.
