Metrics to Measure Performance of Mobile Advertisements
Click through Rate: CTR is the most prevalent way of measuring the effectiveness of
a mobile ad campaign. CTR keeps track of how many people have clicked upon a
particular link.
Cost per Impression: Most often termed as CPI or CPM, cost per impression is when
an advertiser pays for every 1000 times an ad is displayed (this is known as an
impression). This strategy of measuring the effectiveness of advertising on mobile
works mostly based on estimated viewership or readership.
Cost per click: CPC or PPC (pay-per-click) means that each time a user clicks on your
ad, you pay a predetermined amount (this is fixed during the bidding process like it
