Paid Social Budget Calculator: Frequently Asked Questions
​
1. What is a social media advertising budget calculator?
A social media advertising budget calculator is a tool that helps you estimate the costs associated with your social media advertising campaigns. It takes into account various factors such as CPM (Cost Per 1000 Impression), Click Through Rate, Page Conversion Rate and campaign goal to provide an accurate budget estimate.
​
2. How accurate is the budget calculator?
While the calculator provides a good estimate based on the inputs you provide, actual costs may vary due to factors like market competition and changes in platform algorithms. However, it offers a reliable starting point for planning your budget.
​
3. Can I use the calculator for platforms other than Facebook?
Yes, our calculator is versatile and can be used for multiple social media platforms, including Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, TikTok and more. Essentially it works for any platform where you buy the adverts on views (Cost Per Impression) rather than PPC (Pay Per Click), like Google Sponsored Ads.
​
4. How often should I review my social media advertising budget?
It's advisable to review your budget regularly, especially when starting a new campaign or making significant changes to your strategy. Regular reviews help you stay on track and make necessary adjustments to optimise performance.
