View Through Attribution assesses the influence of ad views (impressions) on subsequent conversions, even if the user did not click on the ad. It helps marketers understand the value of brand exposure and visibility in driving conversions.
Formula
View Through Attribution = Conversions from Ad Impressions / Total Conversions X 100
Example
A user sees a display ad for a new smartphone but doesn't click on it. A week later, they search for the smartphone and make a purchase. View Through Attribution attributes this conversion to the initial ad impression, demonstrating the ad's impact despite the lack of immediate interaction.
Why is View Through Attribution important?
View-Through Attribution is essential for:
- Evaluating the true impact of display and video ads.
- Understanding the indirect influence of ad impressions on conversions.
- Optimizing ad spend by recognizing the value of non-click interactions.
- Providing a more comprehensive view of the customer journey.
Which factors impact View Through Attribution?
Several factors can influence View-Through Attribution, including:
- Ad Frequency: The number of times an ad is shown to a user.
- Ad Placement: The location and context where the ad appears.
- Time Lag: The period between the ad impression and the eventual conversion.
- Tracking Accuracy: The precision of tracking mechanisms for ad impressions and conversions.
How can View Through Attribution be improved?
To enhance View-Through Attribution, consider:
- Cross-Channel Analysis: Integrating data from multiple channels to capture the full impact of ad impressions.
- Advanced Attribution Models: Using sophisticated models to better attribute value to view-through interactions.
- A/B Testing: Testing different ad creatives and placements to determine their influence on view-through conversions.
- Data Enrichment: Enhancing data quality by integrating first-party and third-party data sources.
What is View Through Attribution's relationship with other metrics?
View Through Attribution is closely related to metrics like Click-Through Rate (CTR), Conversion Rate, and Return on Ad Spend (ROAS). It complements these metrics by highlighting the value of ad impressions that don't result in immediate clicks but contribute to long-term conversions. By understanding the full impact of ad impressions, marketers can optimize their strategies for better overall performance and ROI.
