Return on Investment (ROI)
A calculation of the cost for an ad or marketing campaign, compared to the amount of trackable revenue it provided for the company. ROI is an important metric for many campaigns, because it relates directly to the profitability of an ad or project.
Sometimes revenue can’t be tracked precisely and attributed to an ad or campaign, though many digital ads are now able to provide this granular tracking to aid in business decisions.

HTML
Hypertext Markup Language, or HTML, is a coding language for items displayed in a web browser. HTML is the underlying coding language behind a lot of what you see on the internet.
Importantly, HTML often doesn’t operate alone to describe web elements. Complimentary languages such as CSS are often used to define the visual attributes, while HTML defines overarching site structure and metadata.
