Finance businesses utilising search engine marketing are ahead of the game when it comes to achieving low cost-per-acquisitions (CPA) in the competitive loans marketplace.
(PRWEB) February 4, 2005 — Finance businesses utilising search engine marketing are ahead of the game when it comes to achieving low cost-per-acquisitions (CPA) in the competitive loans marketplace.

A recent online advertising campaign, aimed at generating loans enquiries on UK pay-per-click (PPC) search engines, Google UK, Overture, and Espotting achieved CPAs of 45.00, half the industry average.
Managed by Neutralize the leading UK search engine marketing agency, the search engine campaign beat industry averages of around 60-70 CPA for large, well recognised, high street brands, while less well known loan providers would normally be averaging CPAs of between 80-200.
Caroline Bielby, PPC Manager for Neutralize said; The CPA achieved by Neutralize proves that it is possible to work towards and achieve cost effective acquisitions in the loans sector, one of the most competitive finance markets online”
Individual keyphrases in the loans market can cost over 10 per click to be in the top tier. By using their in-depth industry knowledge, strategic tracking tools and analysis techniques, Neutralize were able to place their clients ads in the best position to achieve the highest number of conversions. Caroline Bielby said The best position isnt always Number 1 or 2, and it often varies dependent on the keyphrase, search engine or even the copywriting of the ad itself”
The competitiveness of the finance sector, means companies are investing more heavily in search engine marketing as a cost effective lead generation tool. Search engine marketing budgets have grown significantly in the last year with UK finance firms investing between 10,000-250,000 per month in search. However in response to this increased investment companies are also looking at sophisticated cost-per-acquisition CPA led objectives.

Neutralize optimise the campaign to continuously deliver loan applications at the target CPA, up to the clients budget ceiling or enquiry processing ability.
