How website earnings are estimated

Display ad income comes down to one number: RPM, the revenue you earn for every 1,000 pageviews. Multiply your monthly pageviews by your RPM and divide by 1,000, and you have your monthly ad income. The hard part is knowing what RPM to expect.

RPM depends mostly on three things. Your niche decides which advertisers want your audience: finance and business readers are worth far more than meme or gaming traffic. Your visitors' location matters just as much, because advertisers pay several times more to reach readers in the United States than in India or Southeast Asia. And your ad network decides how much competition there is for every ad slot: premium managed networks such as Mediavine and Raptive typically earn noticeably more than AdSense for the same traffic.

Our tools combine all three, add the seasonal swing that makes January the weakest month and December the strongest, and show the result as a realistic range. Read the methodology to see every assumption.

Frequently asked questions

How much money can a website make from ads?
A typical content site earns roughly $5 to $30 for every 1,000 pageviews from display ads. A site with 50,000 monthly pageviews and mostly US visitors might earn $300 to $1,000 a month, depending on its niche and ad network. Use the estimator for your own numbers.
Are the estimates accurate?
They are realistic ranges, not guarantees. They are based on published 2026 RPM benchmarks by niche, traffic location and ad network, adjusted for seasonality. Your own RPM will depend on your ad layout, page speed, content and audience. The methodology page explains every assumption.
Which ad network should I start with?
Most new sites start with Google AdSense, which has no traffic minimum. Small sites with a mostly English-speaking audience can apply to Journey by Mediavine from 1,000 tier-1 sessions a month, and Raptive accepts sites from 25,000 monthly pageviews.
