How we calculate CPE
We pull live Instagram stats, estimate average engagements per video from views and engagement rate, then divide your fee by that estimate.
Formula
CPE = cost ÷ (average views × engagement rate)
How to read the result
- Lower CPE means more estimated engagements per dollar for that fee.
- CPE is useful when comments, likes, and shares matter more than raw views.
- Compare CPE within the same platform and similar content formats.
FAQ
- What is a Instagram creator CPE?
