CTR (Click-Through Rate) shows how engaging your ad is to the audience.

Formula:
CTR = (Clicks ÷ Impressions) × 100%

Example: 1,000 impressions and 10 clicks → CTR = 1%. This means 1 out of 100 people clicked.

Why CTR matters:

• Quickly shows if a creative works.
• Helps save budget — higher CTR = lower cost per impression.
• Ideal for A/B testing: easily compare texts, creatives, or offers.

Factors affecting CTR:

• Creative — brighter and more relevant ads get more clicks.
• Targeting — reaching the right audience increases CTR.
• Placement — more visible ads get more clicks.
• Personalization — tailored ads boost engagement.

Pros of CTR:

• Provides clear performance metrics.
• Enables fast ad optimization.
• Helps understand your audience better.
• Saves budget if the creative resonates.

Cons of CTR:

• Doesn’t show what happens after the click (conversions).
• Can be skewed by fraud or bots.
