FAQ
Reality check
Does this calculation guarantee income?
No. It only shows the visitors, clicks, and conversions required by the assumptions.
Which input should be changed first?
If visitor volume is high, review earnings per conversion, conversion rate, then click rate.
What changes when there is ad budget?
Ad spend must be recovered first, so break-even conversions increase.
