Digital Magazine Standard Calculation CPM Cost,

When you calculating CPM Cost,
You guys better divide the cost of the ad display by the number of magazine readers, viewers, or visitors, broken down by thousands.

Cost per thousand Niche Magazine,

If an ad display costs $4,000 and the average cpm rate in  newspaper with a circulation of 100,000 minimum ad display, your possible cost to reach 1,000 readers is $40, since 100,000 / 1,000 = 100 and $4,000 / 100 = $40. A $2,000 ad in a magazine with 20,000 readers may seem cheaper than the $4,000 newspaper ad, but by spending investment cost $100 to reach 1,000 readers, you need to spending more money to reach each potential customer with the digital magazine advertising.

How do magazine publishers set their advertising sales prices?

Advertising sales rates are always related to circulation, meaning the number of paid or unpaid subscribers and newsstand buyers of your magazine. The relationship is called "Cost per thousand readers" or CPM. Every advertiser always divides your page prices by your circulation. If you have 10,000 readers and your ad pages cost $1500, then they'd divide $1500 by 10 and your CPM would be $150. The calculation allows advertisers to compare the prices of magazines with completely different circulation sizes.

Publishers compare their prices to competitors' using CPM. You will find that magazines in a niche tend to charge the same CPM.Take the time to study what CPMs are common among your prospective competitor magazines or websites.The easiest way to set your prices is just to pick something close but possibly lower than your competitor's CPM. If theirs is $50, yours could be $45. Something like that.

Publishers always give advertisers discounts off their basic CPM for certain kinds of "good behavior." For example, if an advertiser agrees to buy an ad in every issue you publish for the coming year, you usually give them a discounted price for each ad. Those are called frequency discounts. You may see other kinds of discounts.

Before you set your ad prices, buy and read Cheryl Woodard's book, Starting and Running a Newsletter or Magazine. We hate to be so bold, but really, you'll find its the best $20 you ever spent. You can find out more about the book here. You can order it from Amazon.com or you can telephone the publishers at 800-992-6656 and order it that way. It's also available in bookstores and libraries.

Trust us, its a tradition in the publishing business to borrow ideas from other publishers, so do yourself a favor and study some magazines like the one you want to publish to see how they price their products.
