Mpression – ROI Tracker

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009

Advertisers can now gain insight into campaign effectiveness by implementing Mpression ROI Tracking Tags on their site. The use of multiple tags across an advertiser’s site offers more insight into how consumers are responding to campaigns. There are plenty of activities across a site that can indicate a response; form completion, visiting a specific page or downloading content.

Cost per Acquisition/Action (CPA) is a metric increasingly used by advertisers to measure the effectiveness of their campaigns. An advertiser will see how many impressions or clicks it took for an action to be performed – and the cost of that action. Using tracking tags, Mpression allows a target CPA to be specified per activity per campaign.

Benefits

  • Measure what percentage of clicks reach your home page
  • Measure conversions & sales
  • Specify target ROI metrics per action
  • Get comprehensive reporting by tag

Specify Tags and target ROI Metrics

Select the pages that you want to track; home page arrivals, form completion or downloads - then specify the target CPA metric for those pages:

Easy to Implement Tags

The ‘activity’ tag defines the action that is being measured – in this case, Home Page arrivals. The ‘TrackerId’ is the unique value generated for each click on the banner. These tags can be placed on the advertiser’s microsite – typically below the fold at the footer of the page.

Comprehensive Reporting

Print a report that gives you complete visibility from the impression being served, the click, home page arrival right through to the acquisition and the actual cost of that acquisition.
