COMMON PROBLEMS

Things to check if the result looks wrong

My CPM looks too high

Check whether you entered impressions rather than thousands of impressions. Enter the full impression count.

Which currency does the calculator use?

It does not convert currencies. The result uses whatever currency you used for total cost.

Should I use reach instead of impressions?

CPM is normally calculated with impressions. Reach measures unique people and is a different metric.

Can I compare two campaigns?

Yes, if the costs and impression counts are measured consistently across both campaigns.
