PPC comes with heavy costs. You must pay for the “perceived ranking” and once the amount you have deposited runs out, the traffic disappears.

You must have focused on how to beat the pandemic without doing irreversible damage to your economy in the process. This could have led you to take all sorts of decisions that included remote working, telemedicine, outsourcing, and online marketing. All these measures taken to sustain the life of your business are in order, but you probably didn’t take the cybersecurity risks involved into consideration.
