What is CPM?

CPM (cost per mille) is what you pay for every 1,000 times your ad is shown. It's the headline price of most brand and awareness buys on Meta, Google Display, YouTube and programmatic. Enter your spend and impressions to get CPM instantly - then remember CPM only tells you what attention costs, not what it earns.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good CPM?

It depends entirely on channel and audience. Broad awareness display can run $1-$5 CPM, while narrow B2B or high-intent placements on Meta or LinkedIn can be $20-$100+. CPM alone isn't good or bad - a $50 CPM that produces sales beats a $2 CPM that produces none. Judge it against the revenue that traffic makes, which is what Clicked measures.

How is CPM different from CPC?

CPM charges you per 1,000 impressions regardless of clicks; CPC charges you per click. CPM suits reach and awareness; CPC suits direct response where a click is the point. You can convert between them if you know your click-through rate: CPC = CPM ÷ (CTR × 10).

Does a lower CPM mean cheaper customers?

No. A low CPM only means cheap impressions. If those impressions don't click, add to cart or buy, they're cheap and worthless. Always trace CPM through to revenue by source - cheap attention that doesn't pay is the most common way ad budgets leak.
