Paid search engine ranking (PPC) is just buying advertising for your business. PPC is sometimes called “buying your way into search results.” With PPC, the goal is for the search user to not only see your ad, but to click on it to get to your website (click-through), and buy your widget (conversion to sale).

Traffic attribution identifies which sources drive visitors to a web property. If we can’t determine where the traffic comes from, we can neither attribute conversions to their original sources of traffic, nor can we find out the true cost per acquisition (CPA) or return on ad spend (ROAS) for each marketing activity.
