Cost-Per-Click (CPC) Formula
CPC is calculated by taking the total unique clicks on an ad and dividing it by the total impressions received by the ad.
Example Cost-Per-Click (CPC) Calculation
We are given these performance stats of an ad campaign:
Number of unique clicks = 200
Amount spent on ad = $500
We want to know the CPC of the ad campaign:
We take amount spent on the ad and divide that by the number of unique clicks reported
