Interpret a hook-rate calculation

Hook rate is meaningful only when its view threshold and denominator are stated. It describes an early viewing event, not the entire business outcome.

Put it into practice

Define the numerator and denominator before calculating. Compare like-for-like delivery and also inspect what happens after the opening.

Worked example · illustrative

What this looks like

If your chosen definition is qualifying early views divided by impressions, record that formula alongside the numbers.

Before you move on

Could a higher early-view rate still lead to fewer useful visits or purchases?

Write down the evidence for your answer. If you cannot point to a concrete example, revise the work before treating it as ready.

A repeatable workflow

  1. Define the one thing that differs.
  2. Record the destination platform and reporting definitions.
  3. Compare outcomes in context before selecting a winner.
