What difference between clicks and impressions?

LyleRedus · 03-09-2015, 02:34 AM

Impression is the number of times your Ad is displayed for a particular keyword, click means when the visitors clicks particular Ad.

samreeen · 03-09-2015, 03:19 AM

In simple terms, impression is the number of times that image/website link/keyword appeared on any computer screen anywhere in the world.
A click-through is the actual number of times someone has taken their curser, placed it on your advertising image and used their mouse to click on that image and be taken to your website.

Impression means number of times the website is displayed for a particular keyword and clicks means when a visitor actually clicks your website

Kalpart · 03-10-2015, 01:37 AM

The number of times the website is visible in search engine for the particular keyword is called the impressions while the number of times the user clicks on the website is called the clicks.

I have got some very good information from here so thanks.

Each time an ad displays it is counted as one impression and click is counted when a user clicks on it.

Web terminology can be confusing, sometimes even to an experienced internet marketing professional. Most individuals that manage a dealership’s web presence are familiar with the difference between an Organic Optimization campaign and a Pay-Per-Click campaign. A smaller majority of those individuals are familiar with the difference between an ad impression and an ad click.

An ad impression is simply the number of times your ad, whether it’s a banner, button, or text link, has been (or will be) exposed to a potential viewer. In simple terms, this is the number of times that image appeared on any computer screen anywhere in the world. As an advertiser this is the least advantageous way to purchase advertising. Yes your ad is being viewed, but what is it really doing for you?

A click-through is the actual number of times someone has taken their curser, placed it on your advertising image and used their mouse to click on that image and be taken to your website. This is the most advantageous way to purchase advertising for the advertiser, because it really takes all the guess work out of the equation. You’ll know exactly how many visitors will visit your site relative to the ad purchase. Once the end-user is on your website, it should be engaging and interactive enough to generate some sort of emotion to make contact with you.

It’s important to know the difference between these terms because it will make a difference when perusing a Pay-Per-Click campaign.

If you are hiring a third party or reseller to manage a campaign for you, remember, you have the right to know exactly how many clicks and impressions your site received as well as how much money was spent. You can get more information about Google’s best practices policies regarding third party resellers from their AdWords Advertiser Guide.

Impression is how many time your website seen by user and clicks is how many time click on your website by user.

Clicks is where someone presses your link to your website and impressions is where your website shows in the search
