Common questions
What is cost per click (CPC)?
CPC is the average amount you pay each time someone clicks your ad. It changes with your industry, keywords, location and competition. A lower CPC means more visitors for the same budget.
What is a good click-to-lead rate?
It depends on the offer and the landing page. Many service businesses see 3% to 10%. A clear offer, a fast page and a short form usually lift it.
What counts as a qualified lead?
A lead who matches what you sell: they can afford it, are in your area and actually need it. Filtering out poor-fit enquiries gives you a more honest sales forecast.
What is ROAS?
Return on ad spend is revenue divided by ad spend. A ROAS of 4 means you earn 4 in revenue for every 1 spent on ads. It ignores your product costs, so check profit too.
What is net ROI?
Net ROI compares your profit with everything you spent. Here it is gross profit minus ad spend and fees, divided by ad spend and fees. Above 0% means the campaign makes money.
What is break-even CPC?
It is the highest CPC at which the campaign still earns zero profit, given your conversion rates and margin. If your real CPC is above it, you lose money on each month of ads.
