To help advertisers to manage their online advertising, some business metric, such as ROI, profit, gross profit, etc., may be estimated and/or tracked with respect to an ad campaign, or a portion of the ad campaign. An advertiser may provide a business metric target, such as a target ROI, a target gross profit, a target profit, etc. An ad delivery system may then adjust information in an ad campaign (or a portion of an ad campaign) in an effort to meet the target. Similarly, an advertiser may provide a goal, such as maximizing or minimizing a business metric. The ad delivery system may then adjust information in an ad campaign (or a portion of an ad campaign) in an effort to meet the goal. The targets or goals may be subject to one or more constraints. The advertiser may provide limits on values of one or more business metrics. The ad delivery system may then turn off, or govern, the delivery of ads if the limits are violated.

A method, advertising network, and computer readable medium for forecasting ad traffic based on business metrics in performance-based display advertising. The method commences by defining a set of advertising campaign parameters, the advertising campaign parameters comprising target predicates, a campaign pricing model, and a campaign performance model. The method continues by forecasting a supply of impressions satisfying target predicates, based on a statistical analysis of a historical dataset containing impressions satisfying target predicates. Once a measure of forecasted supply is known, an auction model serves for calculating the likelihood of winning the forecasted impression at auction, based the campaign pricing model and the campaign performance model. Having a forecasted supply, and also an assessment of the likelihood of winning at auction, the method proceeds by determining values for various performance metrics. The performance metrics are displayed; the user makes changes to any one or more of the advertising campaign parameters.
