CTR (Click Through Rate) in Israel

June 2025 - June 2026

Insights

Detailed observation of presented data

Introduction — the main story in plain language

Israel’s click-through-rate (CTR) for all industries tracked a choppy but upward-leaning rhythm across the 12 months, averaging below the global median but punctuated by a sharp November high. This analysis is based on $3B worth of advertising data from our dataset, which provides strong directional benchmarks. This analysis explores ad performance trends for all industries in Israel compared to the global benchmark.

The story in the data

Over the period June 2025 → May 2026, Israel’s median CTR averaged about 1.65%, starting at 1.20% in June and finishing at 1.70% in May. The low point was 1.20% (June 2025); the high was 2.07% (November 2025). By contrast the global (baseline) median over the same months averaged roughly 2.00% — about 0.35 percentage points higher. In percent terms Israel ran roughly 18% below the global CTR on average.

Monthly moves were vivid: a lift from 1.20% in June to 1.84% in August, a sharp drop to 1.21% in September, then the year’s peak at 2.07% in November. After November’s spike Israel eased back into the 1.57–1.96% band for the first five months of 2026. Volatility was material — Israel’s month-to-month absolute swings averaged ~0.30 percentage points, considerably larger than the global monthly swing of ~0.06 points.

Seasonal and monthly dynamics

The rhythm shows two clear pulses. Late summer (July–August) produced a notable lift, followed by a pronounced September dip — the widest gap versus global levels. Q4 contained both the trough-to-peak momentum: October rose, November spiked, December eased. Early 2026 moved into a softer, more compressed range with a rebound in April and a modest decline into May.

These monthly patterns create a sense of momentum and rebound rather than a steady linear trend: summer lift → autumn drop → strong November uplift → consolidation in early spring.

Country vs. Global

Relative to the global benchmark, Israel was below average for most months. The narrowest gap occurred in August when Israel’s 1.84% nearly matched the global 1.88% (only about 2% lower). The widest shortfall was in September when Israel’s 1.21% trailed the global 1.89% by about 36%. Israel exceeded the global median only in November (2.07% vs. global 1.92%, roughly +8%).

In volatility terms Israel was more volatile — about 4.6× the global monthly swing — indicating sharper month-to-month movement in CTR performance compared with the baseline. Throughout the year the Israel series tracked below the baseline average but showed episodic outperformance and recovery.

Understanding the Data

Insights & analysis of Facebook advertising costs

Click-Through Rate (CTR) is the percentage of impressions that resulted in a click on the Facebook ad. Different industries see varying ad costs due to market competition, user demographics, and conversion value. For campaigns targeting Israel, advertisers should consider local market factors and user behavior. Different campaign objectives lead to varying costs based on how Facebook optimizes for your specific goals. Why we use median instead of average We use the median CTR because the underlying distribution of click-through rates is highly skewed, with a small share of campaigns achieving extremely high CTRs. These outliers can inflate a simple average, making it less representative of what most advertisers actually experience. By using the median—which sits at the midpoint of all campaigns—we provide a more rigorous and realistic benchmark that reflects the true underlying data model and helps you set attainable performance expectations. The data shown represents median values across multiple campaigns, and individual results may vary based on ad quality, audience targeting, and campaign optimization.

Key Factors Affecting Facebook Ad Costs

  • Competition within your selected industry and audience demographics
  • Ad quality and relevance score – higher quality ads can lower costs
  • Campaign objective and bid strategy
  • Timing and seasonality – costs often increase during holiday periods
  • Ad placement (News Feed, Instagram, Audience Network, etc.)

Potential Advertising Impact

CPM and CPC might rise during Passover as consumers prepare homes and plan meals. Fall holiday cluster may see media consumption fluctuate—consumers often offline during holidays, but prior week advertising demand may peak. Yom HaAtzmaut might spark tourism and leisure engagement. Hanukkah could drive e‑commerce CPMs for toys and electronics.

What is CTR and why does it matter for Facebook ads?

CTR (Click-Through Rate) is the percentage of people who click your ad after seeing it. It's calculated by dividing total clicks by total impressions, then multiplying by 100. A high CTR indicates your ad resonates with your audience and helps improve your relevance score, which can lower your overall costs.

What's the average CTR for Facebook ads in 2025?

The average Facebook ad CTR across industries sits around 0.90-1.10%. But there's significant variation. Your specific industry, audience targeting, and campaign objectives should determine your benchmark.

Why is my Facebook ad CTR consistently low?

Low CTR usually stems from poor audience targeting, weak creative, or a disconnect between your ad content and audience needs. Your ad might simply not be standingo out enough. Check if your visuals grab attention, your copy addresses clear pain points, and your audience targeting aligns with people genuinely interested in your offer.

Is CTR still a reliable metric for ad performance in 2025?

Yes—but only in context. High CTR is a signal that your creative works, but it doesn't guarantee conversions. Use it alongside other metrics like conversion rate to get the full picture.
