How can I compare the performance of Google vs Facebook?


With Ctrl+A, comparing performance between Google and Facebook (Meta) is simple.

Your Analytics & Optimization dashboard brings data from all channels together — giving you a clear overview of what’s working best.




1. View Aggregated Results


In the Analytics section, the top overview cards display key metrics across all campaigns:


  • Total impressions (how many times your ads were shown)
  • Total clicks (how many people engaged)
  • Click-through rate (CTR)
  • Total spend and cost per click (CPC)


These metrics are aggregated from Google, Meta (Facebook & Instagram), and YouTube, allowing you to instantly see combined performance.




2. Compare Channels Individually


Scroll down to the campaign list or open a specific campaign and click the graph icon.

Here you can:


  • Filter by channel (Google, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube)
  • Switch metrics (Impressions, Clicks, CPC, CTR, Conversions, Cost)
  • Visualize daily trends and compare them side-by-side
Example: You can quickly see that your Facebook CPC is €0.35 while Google averages €0.22 — helping you understand which platform delivers cheaper traffic.




Summary

Use the Analytics dashboard to directly compare Google and Facebook performance.

Switch metrics, filter by channel, and let Ctrl+A’s AI continuously optimize your spend based on real results.
