That\u2019s important because the CPM pricing enables you to reach many more users in a shorter time.<br><br>The cost per 1,000 impressions will be calculated this way: We take an average eCPM for your targeting + vertical within the last 7 days, so the CPM should be just enough to get high-quality traffic.&nbsp;<br><br>The test will stop once you&#8217;ve reached the test budget limit, or when the number of conversions multiplied by CPA has exceeded the test budget.<br><br>After the test, the eCPM will be recalculated according to the traffic your campaign has received. The number of conversions paired with CPA will also be taken into account.

Thus, we either start running ads with CPA or offer some alternatives like, for instance, trying the CPM pricing. If alternatives won\u2019t suit your marketing goals, you can still try out the CPA model on Adsterra SSP.<br><br>Some targets are harshly competitive, and we need to make sure the offer is viable compared to its rivals.

These are ad offer relevance, your bidding strategy, and eCPM that can boost traffic for a CPM campaign.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1718810537138\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\" style=\"font-size: inherit;font-weight: 700;color: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin:0;\">Can I boost ad traffic by creating several similar campaigns or adding a new account?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">We don\u2019t allow multi-accounting on our platform. Creating several ad campaigns with the same targeting settings will not return more traffic if eCPM remains at the same level.

If the ROI allows you to increase your rate freely, go for it!<br\/><br\/>However, sometimes, the required CPA may seem to harm profitability. Well, this might sound controversial, but remember my point about the first ad view? The first users who view your ad have the highest potential to convert. And if you bump the CPA rate a little, you get more first views, increasing the ROI as a consequence. It&#8217;s crazy, but it works!<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1718811299146\"><h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\" style=\"font-size: inherit;font-weight: 700;color: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin:0;\">Can I get more traffic to my ads from selected sources?<\/h3> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If you\u2019re feeling like it\u2019s a bit risky to raise a CPA payout per entire campaign, try the Custom Bid tool. It allows you to increase bids for selected sources that have proved to convert.<br\/><br\/><em><strong>One important note: <a href=\"https:\/\/blogdev.adsterratech.com\/blog\/adsterra-s2s-tracking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">conversion tracking<\/a> is imperative for all CPA ad campaigns.

Well, this might sound controversial, but remember my point about the first ad view? The first users who view your ad have the highest potential to convert. And if you bump the CPA rate a little, you get more first views, increasing the ROI as a consequence.

Check results, collect a WL, send it to your account manager to make sure there\u2019s enough traffic on the Placements you\u2019ve chosen, ask for an eCPM recommendation, and decide on your new CPA.
