FAQ
How is ROI calculated here?
ROI is (revenue generated minus cost) divided by cost, expressed as a percentage — a standard way to express how much a piece of content returned relative to what it cost to produce.
What counts as "revenue" from a piece of content?
Typically the number of conversions attributed to that content multiplied by the value of each conversion, whether that's a sale, a lead, or another defined outcome.
Does this account for long-term or compounding value?
No — this is a simple point-in-time estimate based on the numbers you enter; content that keeps generating traffic over time will undercount its true long-term ROI.
