Description
The average cost for each click (all).
Why it is important
It measures the average cost for all types of clicks on your ad, such as website visits, engagement actions, and more. It provides insights into the overall cost-effectiveness of your ad campaigns in driving user actions.

By monitoring this metric, advertisers can make informed decisions about ad content, targeting, and budget allocation to optimize their campaigns for better click-through rates and overall ROI.
Formula
The total amount spent / Clicks (all)
Calculation example
Suppose you've been running a Facebook ad campaign, and you've spent a total of $500 on this campaign. During the campaign, your ad generated a total of 1,000 clicks, including various types of clicks like link clicks, 'See More' clicks, likes on the ad, and more.

CPC (All) = Total Amount Spent / Clicks (All)

CPC (All) = $500 / 1,000 clicks

CPC (All) = $0.50 per click
