How to optimize TikTok ads for CTR
Introduction
Click-through rate (CTR) is one of the primary Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that we look at to determine the effectiveness of our ads and make informed decisions about our next steps. While this strategy has been successful, it's important to note that on TikTok, CTR is not the sole determinant of an ad's performance.
We've encountered scenarios where ads with low CTR have still performed excellently in terms of Cost Per Lead (CPL) and overall conversions. It would be counterproductive to terminate these ads if they are showing strong performance metrics in other areas. Therefore, a multifaceted approach to analyzing ad performance is essential for optimizing TikTok ads.
