Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good CPM?
CPM varies widely by industry and platform. Facebook/Instagram: $5-$15, Google Display: $2-$10, LinkedIn: $30-$80. B2B typically has higher CPMs than B2C. Lower CPM doesn't always mean better ROI - focus on conversions.
How is CPM different from CPC?
CPM (cost per thousand impressions) charges for views regardless of clicks. CPC (cost per click) only charges when someone clicks. Use CPM for brand awareness, CPC for direct response.
Why is my CPM increasing?
Rising CPM indicates increased competition for your target audience, poor ad quality/relevance scores, or targeting highly competitive demographics. Improve ad quality and broaden targeting to reduce CPM.
Should I optimize for CPM?
Only if your goal is brand awareness and impressions. For most businesses, optimize for CPA (cost per acquisition) or ROAS which better reflect actual business results.
