Search Engine People - In the instance of search (organic or paid), substitute keywords for apples. Some keywords are very uncompetitive and inexpensive to buy or achieve rankings for. However, the more results a client demands, the more expensive and competitive the keywords become, raising the overall average CPA.

So, the next time a client asks the question; why can’t I triple my results by merely tripling my investment? Ask him if he’s ever gone apple picking.
