CPC (Cost Per Click)

CPC is the amount an advertiser pays each time someone clicks their ad. It's the cost side of a click, the mirror image of EPC.

Why it matters for your earnings

If you buy paid traffic to affiliate offers, profit lives in the gap between your EPC and your CPC — earn more per click than you pay and you scale; don't and you burn cash.
