CPM: The Language of Advertising
CPM stands for **Cost Per Mille** (Mille is Latin for thousand). It is the standard metric used by advertising platforms like Google Ads, Facebook, and media publishers to price visibility. It answers the question: "How much does it cost to show my ad to 1,000 people?"
How to Read the Results
- Low CPM (e.g., $2.00): Cheap traffic. Great for brand awareness, but might not convert well (e.g., in-game banner ads).
- High CPM (e.g., $20.00+): Premium traffic. Expensive but likely to result in sales (e.g., LinkedIn ads or niche newsletters).
Why Publishers Need This
If you own a website (like this one!), calculating your **Effective CPM (eCPM)** is crucial to knowing how much revenue your site generates for every 1,000 visitors. It helps you decide if you need to place more ads or find better-paying advertisers.
