Which would equal to:
1000 visitors X .25 cents = $250 a day
But I'm making closer to $2 a day right now.
Do you mean $.25 cents per visitor on average from selling stuff?
Like $.25 cents per visitor is what it comes out to when averaging out 1000 visitors, say 50 buy something = $.25 per visit? Is that what you mean? Or something else...
Being this is in the "Advertising Sales and Affiliate Programs category" I'm curious if it's from ad's or from sales, cause if just from ad's if your averaging $.25 cents a visit, I need to check this out! ;)
When I get about 1k visitor a day, my revenue is close to nothing... more like $300 A MONTH. Calculation on profit per visitor would be trivial at that time. Now that my site receives 6k visitor a day, my revenue is close to about $300 a day.
Your earning per visitor increases somewhat proportional to your site traffic... As your site grows, the overall value grows... You get more lucative partnerships only if your site has significant amount of traffic to lure companies.
PFOnline, what site do you run?
I have conservatively 60,000+ number one positions in both Google and Ink, millions of page one terms, and sell products that are very expensive (high value)....25 cents per visitor sounds unachievable to me.....but I would love to hear from someone that does it on a large scale purely from SE promotion :)
I run a subscription site where punters pay a monthly fee so this is again different to the type of sales sites listed above.
If I divide the total sales per month / number of visitors per month I get 24 cents to 28 cents per visitor.
But how many of those visitors are actual subscribers and how many of those visitors are new punters?
This is why the figures are flawed and I have no way of knowing the true sales / visitor figure. All I know is that sales is directly proportional to visitor count.
The other problem is that old bugbear of AOL assigning the same user a different IP address throughout a session thus looking like x different visitors; proxy servers making dozens of unique visitors look like one; and dhcp assigning the same physical person a different IP address each day thus looking like 30 different visitors in september.
