- What is CPM (Cost per mille):
‘Mille’ is Latin for thousand, which is why CPM is sometimes referred to as cost per
thousand impressions.
To put it simply, cost per mille is the amount of money that an advertiser spends
(and a
publisher receives) for every 1000 impressions on a publisher’s website.
- Why is CPM important?
CPM is an important metric for both publishers and advertisers as it helps in
keeping
track of the ad performance. Advertisers can monitor the investments made on a
publisher’s website effectively by taking CPM and CTR into account. Moreover,
publishers
can increase the value of their inventory by using target CPM.
- Cost per mille formula:
To measure CPM, divide the total cost of the campaign by the number of impressions.
The
result is then multiplied by 1,000, generating the CPM rate.
Cost per mille formula: (Calculated Budget of the Campaign/Number of impressions) X
1000
