| Overture Site Match Information and Cost per click
schedule
How Site Match Works
Submit
URLs for review and pay a non-refundable annual fee for editors
to review the quality of content on your submitted pages.
Once
reviewed and accepted into the program, your pages are added
to a database of sites that powers search results for major
web portals such as Yahoo!, MSN, Alta Vista, Lycos, All the
Web, FAST and others.
When
a user clicks on your Site Match listing in search results,
you pay a cost-per-click fee for that lead. You must maintain
a positive balance in your cost-per-click account for your
pages to remain active in the program.
Options for managing your budget
Here
are the three options for managing CPC Funds under Overture
Site Match.
Non-Stop
Traffic Plan:
You authorize Overture to charge your credit card the specified
amount when you have 3-5 days of funds left in your account.
This ensures uninterrupted service with minimum account management.
You'll be notified by e-mail when your credit card is charged.
If your URLs are currently deactivated, you must deposit money
to reactivate them.
Charge my credit card $___ when my account balance falls
to $___ .
(Note: We will not bill you more than once during every 24-hour
period.)
Fixed
Budget Plan:
You set a monthly budget that you want to spend on Overture
Site Match. When your balance reaches $0.00, your URLs will
be deactivated until the next month. We'll automatically turn
your account back on and charge your credit card for your
budgeted amount on the day of the month that you originally
signed up for this payment plan. For example, if you sign
up on the 5th of the month, your account will always be turned
back on the 5th of the month.
Charge my credit card each month to bring my account balance
up to $___.
Pre-Payment
Plan:
You choose when to add money to your account, giving you flexibility
over the amount and timing of the deposits into your account.
When your account is depleted, your URLs will be deactivated
until you add more money to your account. We will send you
an e-mail notification 7 days in advance of this occurring,
and again if your URLs are deactivated.
Pricing
Overture
Site Match has two pricing components: an annual review fee
and cost-per-click fee based on product category. (see below)
When
you initiate your Site Match subscription, a non-refundable
annual review fee is charged for setting up your account and
for editors to review the quality of content on your pages.
Site Match subscribers who submit fewer than 1,000 URLs pay
the annual review fee, which breaks down as follows:
Annual URL Review Fee
First
URL $49.00
URLs 2 thru 10 $29.00 ea.
URLs 11 thru 999 $10.00 ea.
(Pricing
tiers are based on the number of URLs per domain/host.)
Subscribers
then pay a fixed cost-per-click when a potential customer
clicks on one of their listings (URLs). The fee is either
15 cents or 30 cents, depending upon the URL's content.
