CTR Definition: Average Rate of Clicks Per Impression
CTR Example: Razon Mia runs an Advertising campaign. I get 1,000 clicks and 50,000 impressions. What is my CTR? My Click Through Rate for this example would be 2% because I get 2 clicks for every 100 impressions.
CTR Formula:
- Click-Through Rate equals Clicks divided by Impressions. Then you multiply that dividend by 100.
- CTR=(Clicks/Impressions)x100
What is the Average CTR?:
*It varies by industry and ad network
Estimates:
~ 2% for Search Ads
~ 0.5-1.0% for Display/Social Ads
