- 10. Cost-Per-Thousand (CPM) Cost-Per-Thousand: Advertising bought on the basis of impression. The total price paid in a CPM deal is calculated by multiplying the CPM rate by the number of CPM units. For example, one million impressions at $10 CPM equals a $10,000 total price. Examples: 1,000,000 / 1,000 = 1,000 units 1,000 units X $10 CPM = $10,000 total price An advertiser requests 25,000 impressions Take 25,000/1,000 = 25 CPM= $8 = $200 TOTAL SALE 10 Privileged and Confidential © Godengo, Inc. 2011
- 11. Cost-Per-Click (CPC) Cost-per-click (CPC) The cost or cost-equivalent paid per click-through. The terms pay-per-click (PPC) and cost-per-click (CPC) are sometimes used interchangeably. PPC indicates payment based on click-throughs, while CPC indicates measurement of cost on a per-click basis for contracts not based on click-throughs. Examples: 1000 impressions x 2% CTR = 20 click-throughs $10 CPM / 20 click-throughs = $.50 per click The average cost per click is .50 to $1. 11 Privileged and Confidential © Godengo, Inc. 2011
