What is CPM?

CPM (Cost Per Mille) measures how much you pay per 1,000 ad impressions. "Mille" means thousand in Latin. CPM is the standard metric for measuring the cost of brand awareness and display advertising campaigns.

Unlike CPC which charges per click, CPM charges for views — making it ideal for brand awareness campaigns where you want maximum visibility.
