CPC (cost per click)
The average amount you pay for one click on your ad.
CPC is total spend divided by the number of clicks. On Google Search you can also set a maximum CPC, the most you are willing to pay for a click; the actual CPC is often lower, because it depends on the auction.
Example: 450 SAR of spend and 300 clicks give a CPC of 1.5 SAR. CPC connects to CPM and CTR: with a 5 SAR CPM and a 1% CTR, each click costs about 0.5 SAR.
