Micro-Conversion Value

- Establish conversion values based on current media budgets & performance

- Analyze conversions by keyword

- Identify keywords and keyword segments that provide a relatively high return

- Layer additional data over keyword segments (e.g. technographics, time-of-day/day-of-week, etc.)

- Use this data to guide content/seo/media strategies

Micro-Conversion Value

- Apply conversion values to paid search as well

- CTR and CPC only matter to a certain extent

- If you are only monitoring campaign level metrics (e.g. CTR, CPC, etc.) you are wasting time and money
