More Clicks ≠ More Customers

Getting caught up in traffic, impressions, and cost-per-click is easy. These metrics aren’t useless—they’re incomplete when measured alone.

What Revenue Optimization
Actually Looks Like

When you optimize for revenue, you still track clicks, but you use that data differently:

Click Quality Over Quantity:: You measure which traffic sources produce the highest-converting visitors, not just the most visitors.

Full-Funnel Attribution: : You connect your click data to downstream actions like purchases, subscriptions, or qualified leads

Cost Per Outcome: : You track cost-per-sale or cost-per-customer, using your click costs as part of the equation

Channel Performance: : You identify which combinations of touch-points (including clicks) create your best customers

Does your current reporting connect these dots?
