Tracking ad performance

Understand your ad metrics and optimize future campaigns.

Campaign dashboard

After your campaign launches, track performance from the Smart Ads section. Metrics update in real-time.

Key metrics

  • Impressions - how many times your ad was shown
  • Link clicks - how many people clicked through to your Smart Link
  • People reached - unique people who saw your ad
  • Estimated new streams - streams attributed to the campaign
  • Cost per stream - your effective cost for each stream generated

What good looks like

  • Cost per stream under $0.02 is strong
  • Click-through rate above 1% means your creative is working
  • If streams keep growing after the campaign ends, the algorithm picked up momentum

Optimizing future campaigns

  • Run longer campaigns (21-28 days) to give the algorithm time to optimize
  • Test different video creatives to find what resonates
  • Focus budget on countries where you see the best engagement
  • Run campaigns around releases when listener intent is highest
