Media/Delivery Metrics

Served Impressions

The total number of times where the Bonzai ad server responded successfully to an Ad request and the response started executing on the browser.

If your report has zero ad server impressions, there will be certain dates with no impression data. Those dates don't display a row in your report.

Served Rate

The ratio of ‘Served Impressions’ to ‘Requested Impressions’.

Served Rate (%) = (Served Impressions / Requested Impressions) * 100

Rendered Impression

The total number of served impressions in which the Creative began to render on the page. This signifies that the creative script has been successfully downloaded and has started executing.

Rendered Rate (%)

The percentage of impressions successfully rendered for viewability evaluation purposes, out of served impressions.

Calculation: Rendered Rate (%) = (Rendered Impressions / Served Impressions) * 100

Not all impressions can render successfully.

Non-Rendered Impressions

The total number of impressions not successfully rendered for viewability evaluation purposes.

Non-Rendered Impressions = Served Impressions – Rendered Impressions

Non-Rendered Rate (%)

The ratio of impressions not successfully rendered/recorded out of served impressions.

Non-Rendered Rate (%) = (Non-Rendered Impressions / Served Impressions) * 100

Fallback Impression

The total number of ad requests where no ad was served because browser or device does not support rich media or javascript but the Impression was captured.


Engagement Metrics

Total Interactions

Previously called Total Engagements

The total number of times when the user interacted with the Creative (Clicks, Tap, Swipe, etc.)

Intentional user interactions, as well as Click-throughs, will be calculated as an Interaction. However, the Time based metrics will not be considered in the calculation of an Interaction.

Interaction rate (%)

Previously called Engagement Rate (%)

The ratio of Total number of Interactions to Served impressions.

Interaction Rate (%) = (Total Interactions / Served Impressions) * 100

Click-throughs

The total number of times when a user clicks through to an external URL or a landing page.

Click through rate - CTR (%)

The ratio of the number of click-throughs to Served Impressions.

Click through Rate (%) = (Click throughs / Served Impressions) * 100

Filtered Click through rate - CTR (%)

Filtered CTR is the recalculated Click Through Rate (CTR) value after clearing out any invalid clicks.

Our Invalid Click Detection system works by tracking clicks as a combination of IP address and Device. The system marks any combination of IP address and Device as invalid with varying degree of confidence based upon the number of clicks received from this combination per hour/day/week.

Unique Interactions

Previously called First Interaction

Total number of Impressions when the user interacted with the Creative (Clicks, Tap, Swipe, etc.). It will be calculated once per impression.

Unique Interactions rate (%)

Previously called First Interaction rate or FIR

The ratio of Total Unique Interactions to Served impressions.

Unique Interaction Rate (%) = (Unique Interactions / Served Impressions) * 100

Manual Expansions

The total amount of time (in hh:mm:ss) when the user has been interacting with the Creative.

In a banner unit, the time spent is calculated only when the user is actively interacting with the Creative. In an Expandable format, the amount of time the Creative is in expanded is calculated in Time spent. Hence, any Auto animations or Autoplay Video are not calculated in the Total Time spent.

Average Time Spent (secs)

The average amount of time (in seconds) when the user has been interacting with the Creative.

In a banner unit, the time spent is calculated only when the user is actively interacting with the Creative. In an Expandable format, the amount of time the Creative is in expanded is calculated in Time spent. Hence, any Auto animations or Autoplay Video are not calculated in the Total Time spent.

Engagements on Element - Video

Video Plays

The number of times the video was played, either initiated by a user or autoplayed.

It is the total number of times the video was played in the entire duration of the campaign. Replays are also counted as video plays.

The aggregated time for all the Video plays in which a video is viewed.

Average Video View Time (in secs)

Average time (in seconds) that a video is viewed per view.

If you drag the scrubber (video timeline) backwards or stops the video altogether, the video view time is stopped.

Video View rate (%)
