Understanding Revenue per Click (RPC)

Learn the fundamentals of Revenue per Click and improve your marketing performance

What is Revenue per Click (RPC)?

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.

Why RPC Matters:

  • Measures traffic value
  • Guides bid optimization
  • Evaluates campaign profitability
  • Helps optimize conversion funnels
How to Calculate RPC
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

Advanced RPC Calculations

Beyond the basic RPC formula, these advanced calculations provide deeper insights into your traffic monetization:

(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

When to Use Advanced Calculations:

  • Profit per Click: For true profitability analysis
  • LTV per Click: For subscription businesses
  • Adjusted RPC: When refunds impact revenue
