01

Use the same scope for every input

Spend, impressions, clicks and conversions must cover the same campaigns and reporting period. Mixing account totals with one campaign produces ratios that cannot be interpreted.

The calculator uses clicks divided by impressions for CTR and conversions divided by clicks for click-to-conversion rate.

02

Diagnose the sequence, not one metric

CPM describes the cost of access to impressions, CTR describes response, CPC combines both, and CPA adds the post-click conversion outcome.

A worsening CPA can therefore come from auction cost, creative response, landing-page conversion or several changes at once. Read the metrics in sequence before assigning a cause.
