Example
A skincare brand spent $2,400 on TikTok ads in February, generating 8,000 product page views.
| Period | Ad Spend | View Contents | Cost per View Content |
|---|
| Week 1 | $600 | 1,800 | $0.33 |
| Week 2 | $600 | 2,100 | $0.29 |
| Week 3 | $600 | 2,200 | $0.27 |
| Week 4 | $600 | 1,900 | $0.32 |
How It Works
Cost per View Content divides your total TikTok ad spend by the number of product page views TikTok attributes to your campaigns. A lower value indicates more efficient top-of-funnel traffic acquisition, meaning you’re paying less for each potential customer to browse your products.
