Hands down, Google AdWords<\/a> is still the very best way to drive quality lead traffic to your website and business. Even with cost per click prices seeming to be higher this year, AdWords still generates a positive lead flow. But are they higher?<\/p>\n

For more information on trends in AdWords cost per click, here is a great article to expand your knowledge<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ecommerce store<\/strong> for small dollar products 2015 = $0.59\u00a0| 2014 = $0.41- 20% increase in average cost per click.<\/p>\n

Medical services<\/strong> 2015 = $1.60 | 2014 = $1.79 – 6% decrease in average cost per click.<\/p>\n

Cosmetic medical services<\/strong> 2015 = $3.02 | 2014 = $3.67 – 18% decrease in average cost per click.<\/p>\n

Home services<\/strong> 2015 = $6.10 | 2014 = $8.36 –\u00a0 28% decrease in the average cost per click.<\/p>\n

Industrial equipment<\/strong> 2015 = $2.05 | 2014 = $3.14 – 35% decrease in the average cost per click.<\/p>\n

No wonder Google AdWords is changing the quality score and trying to boost mobile cost per clicks? Mobile activity has really mixed up the equation for advertisers impacting both cost per click and the number of lead conversions as well as the price to generate a lead.<\/p>\n
