Pricing and Ranking of Ask Sponsored Listings, the internet marketing tool.

Our Pricing and Ranking Model
You'll be charged on a cost-per-click (CPC) basis. This means you will only be charged after a prospective customer clicks on your listing and visits your website. CPCs vary based on the targeting options you choose for your listings, your Max CPC and market demand.

Overview

Keyword Pricing:	CPC Based
Minimum Bid:	Global minimum = $0.05 - where there is no reserve price established. The minimum CPC may be higher than the global minimum to ensure placement.
Bid Model:	Keyword auctions based on eCPM ranking (CPCxCTR)
Reserve Prices:	For the most commercial keyword, minimum CPC to guarantee top placement on the page. Reserve Prices will be based on market intelligence and existing Ask.com CPCs.

Ranking is based on a combination of your CPC for a selected keyword and the number of clicks your listing receives - in comparison to other listings based on the same keyword.
