Calculate revenue per eligible session

Connect conversion and order size without hiding traffic mix.

Measure on a consistent population

A store records $12,000 in net revenue from 6,000 eligible sessions, or $2 per session. If $3,000 comes from channels outside the chosen session scope, remove that revenue before calculating the rate.

Measure on a consistent population. Decompose the change. Use contribution when costs differ.
Key decisions covered in this article.

Decompose the change

If sessions are stable and revenue per session rises, compare converting visits and net order value. A higher order value can offset lower conversion. Show refund and shipping treatment so an accounting change does not look like better traffic.

Use contribution when costs differ

Add contribution per session when products or fulfillment have different margins. Compare by device or channel before treating a blended shift as an improvement. Include absolute revenue beside the rate because low traffic can produce a strong rate and weak totals.
