Contributed Metrics
Cost Per Pixel
Cost Per Pixel (CPP) is the average amount of money spent on conversions from tracking pixels in advertisements. A tracking pixel is a piece of code that enables collection and usage of user behavioural data to display targeted ads relevant to the user.
Post Shares
Post Shares is the total number of times a post was shared across social media platforms such as Facebook, X, Instagram, LinkedIn, or Pinterest. A share extends a post's visibility beyond its original audience. It is an active engagement metric used to gauge how strongly content resonates with an audience.
Post Impressions
Post Impressions is the total number of times a post appeared in user timelines or feeds. It measures visibility only — it does not confirm that anyone read, clicked, or engaged with the content. Post Impressions is a total count, not a unique count, so the same user seeing a post multiple times generates multiple impressions. It is important to distinguish Post Impressions from Post Reach, which counts unique users only.
Cost Per Unique Inline Link Click
Cost Per Unique Inline Link Click is the average amount of money spent per unique click on links contained in advertisements. It is calculated by dividing the sum of the money spent on ads by the total number of unique clicks on the links within the ads and is a variation of Cost Per Click (CPC).

Cost Per Unique Click
Cost Per Unique Click is the average amount spent for each unique click on an advertisement, counting each person only once regardless of how many times they click. Unique clicks typically include link clicks, profile page visits, engagement actions such as likes and shares, and clicks to expand or view media.
