CPM Calculator

Calculate average advertising cost for every 1,000 impressions.

About the CPM Calculator

CPM expresses advertising cost per 1,000 recorded impressions, making campaigns with different reach easier to compare.

How to use it

  1. Enter the total advertising cost.
  2. Enter the number of impressions for the same campaign or period.
  3. Calculate the average cost per thousand impressions.

Formula

CPM equals total advertising cost divided by impressions, multiplied by 1,000.

Example

An ad cost of 1,200 across 500,000 impressions produces a CPM of 2.40.

Notes

An impression records delivery or display, not necessarily attention, clicks or conversions. Use matching cost and impression periods.
