Impressions Click-Through Rate (CTR) is a metric that shows how often people clicked on your link (or ad) after seeing it.
Formula:
CTR (%) = (Clicks ÷ Impressions) × 100
Impressions = Number of times your content (like an ad, video thumbnail, or link) was shown to users.
Clicks = Number of times users clicked on that content.
Example:
If your video thumbnail appeared 1,000 times (impressions), and 100 people clicked on it, your CTR would be:
(100 ÷ 1,000) × 100 = 10%
Why It Matters:
A higher CTR usually means your content is relevant and attractive to your audience.
A low CTR may suggest you need to improve your title, thumbnail, or targeting.
