Advertiser Education: What is Return on Investment?

[ForexReviewsCentral]

thanks for the lesson. I'll keep in mind.

[WinGreenMarketing]

Nope. You can think or wish whatever you want, but you're incorrect.  Breakeven is 0% ROI. Positive ROI, i.e. anything greater than 0%, is more than breakeven, by definition. Return on Investment = Return divided by Investment. At breakeven, return is zero. Like I said, you can hope or wish whatever you want, but in this life, mathematical constructs have nothing to do with opinion, they're indisputable facts, and there are often many many wrong choices while only one choice is correct.

The ability to track ROI is one of the best features of Google AdWords. It's difficult to track individual parts of integrated media campaigns. Tracking the business derived immediately (even within 30 days of a visitor's initial click) can help one optimize keyword lists, ad verbiage and more. If you've got other matters to attend to at your business, AuthorClicks can help. We'll create and manage your campaign for you. Ask us for a quote today.

[geramartgmail]

Any way, I don't understand....

All my ROI are wrong, hahaha

[scrtuber]

Really ads you should get 250 to 700% ROI on ads but they do cost much more to place but that is the real world of advertsinging expectations. Even if you make money you still have overhead to cover for placing the ad and outstanding costs so is why should be over 300% ROI IMO

[y0ungst3r]

do u guys know what tangible benefits are

[WinGreenMarketing]

At 0:55, the guy says that "when ROI is 100%, you're breaking even. When it's higher, you're making money.".

This is incorrect. At 0% ROI, you're breaking even. Anything above 0% is "making money".

[snoutotu]

He was correct in how he phrased it because ROI is relative to your investment.

If you spend $100 and make $50, you only received 50% of your investment back so your ROI is 50%. 0% ROI means you've not made a single penny from your investment.

[WinGreenMktngSystems]

ROI is the ratio of return (profit) over investment, i.e. "return" "on" "investment". If you spend $100 and you get a total of $50 revenue back, you have lost $50 for an ROI of -50/100 or -50% ("minus fifty percent"). If you spend $100 and your total revenues are $100, you have $0 profit. $0 profit divided by $100investment is 0% ROI. So, spending $100 to get $100 (total, i.e. 0 dollars profit) is "breakeven" or 0% Return. A 100% ROI would be a SPECTACULAR investment, not breakeven.

[lauriepgrant]

Yes, isn't that was "breakeven" means?...that you have not made any money but you haven't lost any money either?

[manns101101]

100% retorn on investment = you have got 100% of your investment (your ad spend) back ie you have just broken even. He is correct.

[mkghuy]

yup....that other commenter doesnt know maths..!

[DancingSpiderman]

@mkghuy DON'T SAY "MATHS"...

SAY "MATH" INSTEAD... TRY IT. IT SOUNDS MORE NORMAL.

[mkghuy]

@DancingSpiderman

lol ok yeah

[DancingSpiderman]

@mkghuy I was being facetious. Only people in the USA say "math", and it seems to me now, that the overwhelming majority of the people I communicate Mathematics topics with are NOT American, and so , even I now use the more popular "maths".

When I watch technology documentaries I even hear American scientits say "maths" nowadays.

Maths it is, mkghuy.

But I still like to use the spelling scientits.

[mkghuy]

@DancingSpiderman

all right my dancing dude...i got wat u said after all

"Don't take things so seriously;

comments are only one's opinions" :D

[mkghuy]

he's correct dumbass....go learn some maths..!

[Homitzky]

@WinGreenMarketing Sure...

[DGFrogz]

@WinGreenMarketing Wrong! ROI is a division sum Benefits/ Costs x 100. 100% means costs = benefits and you are breaking even

The guy on the video is correct

[topmentor4u]

I like the video and it is very helpful

[einerus]

[UKGear]

I'm scared!!

[biggestclassifieds]

One of the best topics. However, we wish it can be simpler in presentation and more enjoyable to watch. Nevertheless, informative.

[MyChemicalSweetheart]

BO-RING!

[josephchong]

this video doesn't play

[nagarjun424]

Of course it does!!

[avartan]

great video...very helpful...adwords is so confusing!

and these googlers have so much charisma.

[nagarjun424]

It isn't actually. It is the easiest, most efficient and reasonable way of advertising (at least for me). I agree with you though, Google rules!
