The document discusses various pricing and performance metrics used to evaluate online advertising campaigns. It describes the Cost-per-Thousand Impressions (CPM) model, which measures cost per 1000 impressions. It also covers Cost-per-Click (CPC), which measures cost per click, and Cost-per-Action (CPA), which measures cost per a defined user action. Additionally, it defines performance metrics like Click-Through-Rate (CTR), Conversion Rate, and Return on Investment (ROI) that are used to assess campaign effectiveness and success. Regularly monitoring these metrics can help identify opportunities to optimize spending.

CPM (Cost-per-Thousand Impressions)
Formula: CPM= Media Cost / Impressions x 1000
This formula is a performance based pricing model that tracks and
measures cost effectiveness of online impressions, which are sold by the thousand. The CPM formula is the most common pricing model used in the media industry.
2. CPC (Cost-per-Click)
Formula: CPC= Media Cost / Clicks
This calculation will help you understand and compute how much you will pay each time your audiences engage with your media or advertisement by clicking on it.
3. CPA (Cost-per-Action)
Formula: Media Cost / Number of Defined Acquisitions
This is a pricing model in which payment by your company is based
solely on your audience completing a qualifying action(s) that you define. Some examples of actions are completing a sign up form, filling out a survey, or even completing a purchase. In this situation, your KPI (Key Performance Indicator) will be the “action” that needs to be completed. For this model, that means whatever you are measuring to judge the success of your campaign is what you will divide into your media cost.
The second group of formulas we’re going to cover are performance
metrics. These models are essential to fully comprehending a campaign’s success. 1. CTR (Click-Through-Rate)
Formula: CTR= (Clicks / Impressions) x 100
The click through rate model is simply a ratio of exactly how many advertisements are seen by audiences, in comparison to how many people are actually engaging with your advertisements by clicking on them. Calculating your click through rate is one way to measure the effectiveness of your advertisements.
2. Conversion Rate
Formula: Conversation Rate= Number of Desired Actions Taken / Visits
x 100
This formula calculates the percentage of audience members who take
a desired action defined by your company such as purchasing a product, registering for a membership of some kind, or subscribing to your company’s newsletter. In order to achieve a high conversion rate, the interest level of the visitor needs to be high. This can be improved by making sure your advertisements are reaching the visitor at the right place at the right time in their path to purchase. Your company will also need to ensure that the offer is attractive enough for the visitor to actually complete the desired action. Typically, smaller, less-intensive actions have higher conversion rates.
3. ROI (Return on Investment)
Formula: ROI= (Revenue – Cost) / Cost x 100
The return on investment model calculates the ratio of profits or losses
to the amount that was originally invested in the advertisement or media. This metric can be difficult to calculate with the growing number of channels from display, SEO and pay per click working together in one advertisement.
All of the metrics mentioned above should be closely monitored
throughout the duration of your campaign. Comparing the performance over time can help you identify optimization opportunities to more efficiently spend your budgets.
