Content ROI Estimator

Estimate attributable revenue, net gain, and simple point-in-time ROI from content cost, conversions, and value per conversion.

This is a point-in-time arithmetic estimate. It treats every entered conversion and value as attributable to this content and uses one constant gross value per conversion. It does not establish attribution, subtract fulfillment or overhead beyond the entered content cost, model delayed or repeat value, discount cash flows, or predict performance. Use consistent currency units and compare with your analytics and accounting definitions.

A QUICK WALKTHROUGH

How to use this tool

  1. Revenue = attributed conversions × value per conversion. Net gain or loss = revenue − content cost. ROI = (revenue − content cost) ÷ content cost × 100%. Break-even conversions = content cost ÷ value per conversion.
  2. This is a point-in-time arithmetic estimate. It treats every entered conversion and value as attributable to this content and uses one constant gross value per conversion. It does not establish attribution, subtract fulfillment or overhead beyond the entered content cost, model delayed or repeat value, discount cash flows, or predict performance.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

How is content ROI calculated?

The estimate subtracts the entered content cost from attributed revenue, then divides that net amount by the content cost and expresses it as a percentage.

What does break-even conversions mean?

It is content cost divided by value per conversion. Because conversions are whole events, treat a fractional result as a threshold and round up when planning a minimum count.

Does this prove the content caused the conversions?

No. Attribution and the value assigned to each conversion are assumptions you supply; compare them with your analytics and accounting rules.
