Both product 2 and 4 have highest click-through rate on Twitter, whereas product 1 and 3 are on MySpace and Facebook respectively. Moreover, sufficient evidence has shown that there is at least 3% click through rate on all advertisements, implying that the average has reached 3% or more.

Introduction
The data of this report comes from 293 samples of observations. There are 6 variables which are job, designer, views, clicks, product and placement. The report will first give a general view to AdVantage about the performance of the 4 hired designers. Number of jobs received by each designer is counted to see whether they underperform within their peers. In response to the popularity of 6 placements, percentage of jobs advertised in different placements will be analyzed. Furthermore, in order to determine the pricing strategy, average click-through rate of product on different placements is calculated and indicates the highest percentage of average click-through rate for each product. Most importantly, sufficient evidence has been shown that there is at least 3% click-through rate on all advertisements that AdVantage designed to place into the market.
