Facebook Click Metrics Explained For Car Dealers:
Here are a couple Facebook metric definitions in layman’s terms:
- Click: Any “click” action taken your ads (includes Likes and Comments)
- Landing Page View: The number of times a user clicks on an ad and then successfully loaded the destination webpage. (This is the metric we deem the strongest indicator of ‘Click’ engagement.
- Unique Click: The number of different, or “unique,” users that clicked an ad. This will be a lower # than your “Clicks,” because “Clicks” will include if a single user clicked multiple times
- Outbound Click: The number of clicks that take users off Facebook-owned pages
- Unique Outbound Click: The number of different, or “unique,” users that clicked an ad that took them off Facebook-owned pages.
As you can see, not all clicks are created equal!
