great video
@MrEspozita it’s not calculated this way. look at the values of each click at the $5 bid – they do not correspond to A,B,C in the $4.50 bid.
So to get $10.30 he subtracted the totals ($21.60-$10.30) and then divided by 2.
so the Maths holds.

@x2xHalox2x No, this is considering your wholesale COST not advertising cost AND if your ads are converting you can pump it out BIG TIME!

Great way to explain such a process, but i would like to understand why is it that complex? Why doesn’t Google figure out an easy way for us to do this? The majority of people advertising at Google do not get into this much details. They just want their Ad’s delivered at a price within their budget ranges. They do not need rocket scientists to do this process for each product they have! Suppose i have an eshop with hundreds of products. I won’t be able to repeat this process for everything!
Did the Chief Economist of Google really just say that $4.50 + $4.80 = $10.30?!?!?!?
Google’s making it so fast they forget how to count…

great video
This video has some great tips, check out my blog for more tips on Adwords and feel free to comment.
in this example Google is making over 20% of the sale. Pretty nice margins for Google for doing Nothing
@cabbagedavidge – about the figures. You have a max bid on $5 but that is not your actual cost. Your avg. cpc is 3.35 which is the amount you times with numbers of clicks. Which gives you the exact cost
Only question, on the graph where you show bid $5 – Clicks 208 – Cost $697.42 etc How did you arrive at the figure of $697.42?
Thanks for any help with this.
Your presentation was a great way to help understand. Thanks for such clear easy to follow explanation. I have grappled with trying to understand Adwords bidding, you have now made it so much easier.

There is a reason why that comment was deleted. Why don’t you address how you’re making a profit if you are paying $100 per conversion at a sale price of $300, and your wholesale cost is $200. Address that.
I read your other comment, and you clearly understand the video less and less the more you watch it. None of the statements are contradictory. You rarely pay the full maximum CPC bid for a click, which is why when you bid $5 you would at worst break even, but probably turn a profit. This is not contradictory to saying that if you paid your full CPC max bid of $5 you would be breaking even.
This is just a semantic question – Hal is calling revenue the money you generate from the sale before you factor in the cost to you for the advertising
Paying up to $100 for each conversion would lead to a break even scenario. He says at this point you can still make a profit on the sale. I highly doubt this guy works at Google, they wouldn’t hire someone this incompetent.
Revenue is $300, not $100.
