Learn the fundamentals of Revenue per Click and improve your marketing performance
Revenue per Click (RPC) is a key metric that measures how much revenue you generate for each click on your ads or links. It helps evaluate the effectiveness of your traffic monetization and conversion optimization efforts.
Total Revenue ÷ Total Clicks
The RPC formula shows how much revenue you generate on average from each click. An RPC of $2 means you earn $2 for every click received.
Example:
$1,000 revenue ÷ 500 clicks = $2 RPC

(Revenue - Costs) ÷ Clicks
Profit per Click shows the actual profit generated from each click after accounting for costs.
Example:
($1,000 - $400) ÷ 500 clicks = $1.20 profit per click
(Customer LTV × Conv Rate) ÷ Clicks
Lifetime Value per Click considers the long-term value of customers acquired through clicks.
Example:
($500 × 2%) ÷ 100 clicks = $0.10 LTV per click
RPC × (1 - Refund Rate)
Adjusted RPC accounts for refunds and returns in your revenue calculations.
Example:
$2.00 × (1 - 0.05) = $1.90 adjusted RPC
