Why BIMI Delivers Low-Cost Brand Impressions
BIMI can deliver brand impressions for as little as $0.10 or less per impression-far lower than traditional ad networks, where costs can range from $2–$6 per impression6. Over time, these impressions can drive more site visits, search volume, and revenue, making BIMI a cost-effective investment for most industries.
