Frequently asked questions

What is a realistic display ad RPM for beginners?

Many new blogs see low single-digit RPMs until traffic quality and niche improve. Use conservative values unless you have measured data.

Should affiliates or ads come first?

Affiliates can pay earlier on lower traffic if intent is strong. Ads usually need meaningful pageviews before they matter.

Does this include digital product sales?

Yes—add estimated product revenue in the products field. Keep it separate from ads and affiliates so you can stress-test each layer.
