How the conversion lift impact calculator works

Expected conversions equal visitors times conversion rate. Subtract baseline from proposed conversions to find expected additional conversions; these can be fractional because they are scenario averages, not observed people.

Additional contribution is expected additional conversions times contribution after variable costs. Subtract implementation cost once for net impact. The sufficient visitor threshold rounds upward from cost divided by expected additional contribution per visitor; no positive lift means no finite recovery threshold unless cost is zero.

Percentage-point lift differs from relative lift: 2% to 2.5% is 0.5 percentage points and 25% relative. No sample-size test, confidence interval, causal attribution or guaranteed improvement is inferred from the rates entered here.

Worked example

At 10,000 visitors, conversion improving from 2% to 2.5% means 200 versus 250 expected conversions, or 50 more. At $50 contribution each, additional contribution is $2,500. After $1,000 implementation cost, net impact is $1,500; 4,000 visitors are sufficient under these assumptions.
