Is there a way to find out what a company spends on pay per click and what keywords a company bids on?

Is there a tool or technique to research what keywords a company is bidding on for pay per click (PPC) marketing, aka CPC marketing aka search engine marketing (SEM)? I am trying to research where – and on what terms – a company is using their online advertising dollars and any tips or suggestions would be great.

Thank you.

How do social networking sites like Friendster and even Youtube generate revenue?

Is it thru CPM (cost per impression), CPC/CPA (cost per click/action), affiliate marketing?

Is there a search engine form on sites that for specific keywords opens my page, instead of his?

Do u know if exists third parties on the net, that supplies search forms for site owners, and when somebody search specific keywords, that search form will redirect immediatelly to my site (my site could be also a search engine, or a static webpage on a specific topic)?

For example: I enter on a normal site, I see there a search engine (on site and on web), I choose "search on the web", I put a specific keyword, press "search" and mypage.com will appear to the searcher. And I pay for the number of visitors that the search form sent to me. A cost per action type of.

Thank u.
I am not interested in clasic cpc programs (which i know very well). I want to know specificly this: I enter a website, I see a search form (on site/on web), I search a "ballerina shoes", I EXPECT THAT A SEARCH RESULTS PAGE APPEAR, but instead of this APPEARS MY PAGE, ballerina_shoes.com. (so me as a searcher I'm tricked). But if I search "pink bears", the normal results page should come up, from the search supplier. I am only interested in several keywords.
I don't care how obscure are the suppliers for this service, I just need to know the names of the suppliers, if any. Thank u:)

I want to promote one of my videos on youtube, but i dont understand the Cost Per Click, and the Budget thing?

this is what it says…

The daily budget controls your costs and affects the frequency of your promotions. The budget is shared by all your promotions. Raise or lower your budget as often as you like.
Max. daily (average).
$ __{content}.25__per day

This is the approximate maximum you want to spend per month.
Current Maximum Monthly Budget
Approximately .00 per month

and then it says

The max CPC is the highest price you're willing to pay each time a user clicks on your promotion. The CPC influences the position of your promotion compared to other promotions.
