Initial Thoughts
The Merger Myths:
• cost per click (CPC) rise
• cost per acquistion (CPA) rise
• conversion rates fall
• click thru rates (CTR) worsen
What we’re actually seeing:
• Traffic spiked, of course
• We did see an initial rise in CPC, but…
• CPC have begun to fall
• CPA have decreased in many
instances
• CTR has been mixed
