Cost Per Acquisition (CPA)
Cost Per Acquisition first involves creating a target action (e.g. purchasing a product), then calculates how much money is being spent in advertising dollars for one of these actions to be completed. Reducing CPA in your marketing channels, and comparing types of ads to see which is more effective, can be a useful way to reduce unnecessary costs.

Keyword
Keyword is a bit of a misnomer, because it can refer to a word or entire phrase that appears in web searches.
However, in either case, it refers to a word or phrase representing a specific search term and idea. Websites will build strategies to rank for particular keywords that are closely related to their products or services, in order to generate more traffic and leads.

Hero
In the context of web design, the Hero area (sometimes used as “Hero Image” as well) refers to the primary spread on a webpage, usually the site’s homepage, at or near the top of the screen and generally just below the navigation menu.
Your hero area should be the most visually prominent area of the page, and also have the most immediate, actionable information for the user to your site.
