What the result means

RPM shows monetization efficiency per thousand impressions. It helps compare affiliate, product, sponsorship, and content campaigns on one revenue metric.

RPM = revenue / impressions × 1,000. Revenue per click = revenue / clicks. Revenue per conversion = revenue / conversions.

High impressions are not enough; RPM reveals whether attention is monetized.

Example calculation

With $2,400 revenue and 180,000 impressions, RPM is $13.33. If there are 2,600 clicks, revenue per click is $0.92.

Tips for better results

  • Improve offer relevance to raise RPM.
  • Segment sponsorship, affiliate, and product revenue.
  • Use content that attracts buyers, not only viewers.
  • Track RPM by content format.
