Common questions

Which metric should I optimize?

CPA tied to business value is usually the most useful; CPC and CPM explain why it moves.

What is a conversion?

Whatever action you count as success, such as a lead or purchase.

Why is my CPA high with a low CPC?

Low click-to-conversion rate: the traffic is cheap but not relevant.
