How much do LinkedIn ads cost?
LinkedIn can help you achieve your marketing goals
Your LinkedIn advertising costs are based on the type of activity you're paying for and the ad auction.
You'll start your campaign by placing a bid when you launch your campaign.
LinkedIn ads are sold through the ad auction, where your bid competes with other advertisers who want to reach the same target audience.
The target audience is made up of the LinkedIn members you're trying to reach with the ad campaign. The cost required to win the auction depends on the bid and the desirability of your target audience.
Billable events
LinkedIn uses objective-based pricing. What you'll be charged for depends on the campaign objective you choose. For example, when you choose the Website Visit Objective, you'll only be charged when someone clicks the link to your website. Each campaign objective has a different billable event, and you’re only charged when that event occurs. In other words, billable events are what you're charged for.
Choose your LinkedIn ads pricing
LinkedIn ads let you choose the type of activity you want to pay for. Your campaign objective selection determines which ad formats, bidding strategies, and optimization goals are available for your campaign. LinkedIn may also periodically run tests or trials through its online advertising platform and/or its third party properties, for example, the LinkedIn Audience Network. These or other service modifications may affect your use of our marketing products, including pricing or performance. This chart outlines which campaign strategies and optimization goals correspond to the chargeable event.
