FAQ

CPC is the average amount you pay each time someone clicks your Google ad. Formula — CPC = Total Ad Spend ÷ Total Clicks. For example, $500 spend with 250 clicks = $2.00 CPC.

CTR is the percentage of people who saw your ad and clicked it. Formula — CTR = (Clicks ÷ Impressions) × 100. A 3.5% CTR means 35 out of every 1,000 impressions resulted in a click.

ROAS measures how much revenue you earn for every dollar spent on ads. Formula — ROAS = Revenue ÷ Ad Spend, expressed as a multiplier. A 4x ROAS means you earn $4 for every $1 spent. Most industries target a minimum of 3x–4x ROAS.

It depends on your industry. Legal Services average $5–$10 CPC, while Retail can be as low as $0.80–$2.00. Use the benchmark table on this page to compare your CPC to your vertical's typical range.
