Over half of its users are under 30, and most of the remainder are under 50, leading to high engagement and conversion rates, typically than other Chinese social media platforms.

Paid Weibo marketing, however, does involve costs. Banner ads typically start at as low as USD 0.1 per 1000 impressions but vary drastically depending on a variety of factors, like location, demographics, etc. Weibo ads are usually priced on a Cost Per 1,000 Impressions (CPM) basis, meaning you pay a flat fee each time your ad is shown to users, even if they see it multiple times.

 

Costs vary by goals; for instance, driving purchases is more expensive than clicks. These costs apply to various ad types, including news feed ads, Fan Connect Ads, Fan Tunnels, and Fan Headlines.
