Why this is the answer
Paid Search (e.g., Google Ads, Bing Ads) primarily operates on a Cost-Per-Click (CPC) model, where advertisers pay each time a user clicks on their ad. This is fundamental to how search engines monetize their advertising platforms. Influencer marketing often uses flat fees or performance-based models like Cost-Per-Acquisition (CPA) or revenue share, not typically CPC.
