2. Understand your ad budget and Cost-per-Click (CPC): Plan your costs properly

Your ads run on a Cost-per-Click model (CPC).

The click price (CPC) depends on various factors such as category, competition, and performance history. A good understanding of CPC logic helps you use your budget strategically and efficiently:

• Each category has its own CPC.
• If you select multiple categories, your final click price is the average of the selected categories.
• Only clicks from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland are billed. International clicks appear in your dashboard but don't cost you anything.
• Billing occurs monthly at the beginning of the following month.

Monthly budget limit: To start, you don't need to set a limit. If you want to cap your spending, we can set up a monthly budget for you at any time. Once it's reached, your campaigns automatically pause and restart at the beginning of the next month. You won't be charged beyond your agreed budget.

3. Set up your campaign: Configure your campaign effectively

To optimize your campaign, you need to make the following decisions:

1. Select categories:
   Choose the categories where your product should be advertised.
2. Select articles:
   Choose content or placements that best match your target audience.

Your selection determines where your ads appear on OMR Reviews and which users you reach. You'll get an overview of all integration options from your OMR Reviews contact person. You can find more information and contact options here.

Your ads will then be displayed dynamically by category and article. There's no fixed list of specific URLs where your ads run permanently.
