Wesley Yuhn & ACHDP LLC DBA Media Oasis for Pay-Per-Call 
Pay-per-call (also called Cost-per-Call) is a Performance-based advertising model and compensation 
method. Pay-per-Call is similar to online Pay-per-Click (PPC) advertising. Pay-per-Call advertising 
was first introduced in the US around September 2004 and registered as a Trade Mark in 2005. Voice-contact 
is particularly suited to local businesses, and to high-value and consultative purchases, where 
customers wish to talk to vendors before committing to buy. 
Given the high rate of reported click fraud, Pay-per-call is believed to be a better solution to connect 
potential customers to advertisers. In recent years, the Pay-per-Call model has been experiencing signi-ficant 
growth and industry adoption, partly attributed to the growing popularity of web-enabled smart-phones. 
Pay-per-call (PPC) was originally a billing system generally known as "900" calls (because most 
pay-per-call services used numbers in the 9xx range), where the phone company bills the caller a 
fee which is passed on to the owner of the number called. This service used Premium-rate 
telephone numbers predominantly for billing phone sex services on a pay per minute basis. 
Further Pay-per-Call in the performance marketing industry is an inverted variant of Premium Rate 
telephone numbers. Here, the phone company charges Advertisers to receive calls, instead of 
billing callers. And the actual pricing model of Pay-per-Call is termed as a Cost Per Action model. 
Pay Per Call System 
Call Tracking is a key part of the technology that enables Pay-per-Call - The ability to track calls 
in a similar way to clicks, allows Pay-per-Call providers to account for results and to reward 
partners for performance, on a revenue-share basis. A majority of original direct PPC providers 
used web forms or optimized landing pages to help generate phone calls. On web based 
advertising platforms, merchants define their relevant terms and choose desired categories and a 
geographic area for the ad to appear (local, regional or national). From there, they create their ad, 
containing their company name, address, a short description and imbed a track-able toll-free 
telephone number of the PPC provider, which redirects to the advertiser's actual phone number. 
This type of advertisement is popular with Yellow Pages companies. The PPC provider system is a 
virtual PBX hosted phone operation used to track, record, forward and account for every call, and 
captures all caller details – caller info, date and time, calling number etc. Calls can be 
automatically forwarded to the advertiser or sent to a call center where potential prospects are 
qualified before being passed along to advertisers. Average call durations in 2012 were reported by 
one Pay-per-Call network to last between 2 and 4 minutes.
Pricing: The cost per-Call charged to the advertiser is usually higher than the cost per-Click. Pay-per- 
Call providers claim the higher charges are because calls convey higher consumer intent to 
purchase - and - have a higher conversion rate than Clicks. Providers also report that captured call-data 
is more detailed and actionable than click-related data. 
Online & Offline: Pay-per-Call is referred to as a ‘bridge’ between online and offline advertising, 
because unlike Pay-per-Click it extends beyond online advertising - it can be used Offline (in 
traditional media such as print, TV and outdoor). Pay-per-Call is also available to businesses that 
do not have a website, because it routes prospective customers to a telephone, instead of to a 
website. 
ROBO: Pay-per-Call enables a growing number of ‘ROBO customers’ (customers who ‘Research 
Online and Buy Offline’) to dial telephone numbers, or Click-to-Call links that they see online. 
Calls usually terminate ‘Offline’ on the advertiser’s fixed or hand-held telephone/device. 
Pay-per-Call and the Mobile web: In 2010, Click-to-Call functionality was extended for smart 
mobile phones so that the user could connect by clicking the phone number link, without having to 
dial the number manually. Web-enabled Smartphones and their inherent click-to-call and search 
functionality play an important driver behind growth projections for the Pay-per-Call model. 
Pay-per-Call and Affiliate Marketing: In recent years, leading Affiliate Marketing Networks 
have proceeded to introduce Pay-Per-Call solutions. Pay-per-Call is reported to be one of the 
fastest growing areas in the affiliate marketing industry. 
Wesley Yuhn and Media Oasis and his team over at ACHDP.com are experts with respect to 
affiliate pay-per-call, inbound marketing, live call center transfers, IVR’s, call center operations,

several big brands and widely known within the affiliate pay-per-call space as an innovator and 
Growth Hacker by many seeking to expand their companies online presence and inbound 
marketing initiatives. 
The success of online marketing campaign depends on the tools and the measures utilized during 
the promotional drive. And generating qualified leads and segmenting the target market are two 
main measures that play a vital role throughout the campaign. In addition, marketers build a highly 
visible website for the company, sharing all the important information and details in a persuasive 
manner. Wesley Yuhn along with his experienced teammates leverage online industry strategy
