What is CPC?

CPC stands for Cost Per Click. It measures how much you pay on average each time someone clicks your advertisement.

Calculate CPCCPC = Spend ÷ Clicks
Calculate ClicksClicks = Spend ÷ CPC
Calculate SpendSpend = Clicks × CPC

Example

If a campaign spends 2,500 and generates 5,000 clicks:

2,500 ÷ 5,000 =0.50 CPC

Is a lower CPC always better?

Not necessarily. A lower CPC means traffic is cheaper, but the quality of those clicks still matters. CPC should usually be reviewed alongside conversion rate, CPA, revenue and ROAS.
