Turn assumptions into a decision you can explain
Begin with a defensible baseline, then duplicate the logic across an upside and stress case. Keep time periods and units consistent so differences come from the decision variable — not mismatched data.
Use traffic, clicks, earnings and costs from the same month.
Model ads, affiliate and sponsorship revenue independently.
Change one traffic or conversion assumption at a time.
The core model used here
Affiliate revenue uses qualified clicks, eligible conversion rate, order value and commission rate. Results depend on attribution, reversals and the geography of traffic.
Confirm the assumptions that can change the answer
Page RPM is realized publisher revenue per 1,000 pageviews, not advertiser CPM.
Affiliate clicks and conversion rate reflect eligible, trackable traffic.
Commission reversals, taxes and payment timing are not modeled automatically.
