IMPRESSION AND PRICING EXPLAINED

When a surfer visits a website and downloads a page featuring a banner ad, that generates what is called a "Page View" or "Impression."

"Page View" or "Impression is different from Click-Through Percent (CTP) that measures how well banners are performing on a website. For instance, if a banner had 200 impressions and 4 click-throughs (Four different people clicked on a banner and were sent to the webpage linked to the banner (advertiser's website), the CTP is 2%. A banner with a 1% CTP is considered acceptable. CTPs of over 3% are good. A banner with CTP below 0.5% should be changed.

Click-Through Percent (CTP) is similar to Click Per Thousand (CPM) - the "M" standing for the Ancient Roman language letter meaning "thousand".

Most of Africabiz Online pricing is based on "impressions", meaning the number of times a visitor sees an advertiser's ads - by lumps of 1,000. For instance 2,500 impressions would cost US$ 50 (That is 2 cents for each impression - a competitive price whatever may be CTP or CPM). Main posting pages are listed here

Visitors represent sequence of requests made by one user at the same website.

Hits stands for the number of times a webserver has been requested for a webpage or a graphic image by an unique visitor. If graphic images are linked to a webpage (which is 95% the case in Africabiz Online) the number of "hits" is a clear indication of a website popularity.
