Many online businesses are choosing Sponsored Search as the basis of their advertising programs. Based on the belief that surfers are more likely to click on the first one to three results on a search results page, sponsored search, or PPC allows advertisers to bid for top placement. In Google Searches, these are the yellow shaded listings at the top; there are additional paid ads along the right hand side of the page.  Ads are tied to specific keywords or search terms. Sponsored Search offers an enormous amount of flexibility by allowing advertisers to choose a budget, determine the time of day they wish their ads to appear and tailor the advertisements to fit targeted searchers.
