Did you click because you actually wanted a Northern Lights holiday, or because it was novel? If the latter, then your traffic was pointless - if you weren't thinking of buying, then they won't be interested in your visit.


I clicked out of interest, yes. But of course they should be interested, no matter what. 'Conversion rate', I believe it's called.


Conversion rate for the entity paying for the ad is number of purchases against number of visits. A low conversion rate indicates a bad marketing activity.
