The business case for your SEO project, in numbers

Before you ask for budget, it helps to walk in with the number already done. This calculator takes your organic traffic, your conversion rate and your value per customer, and projects 12-month incremental revenue, ROI and the month the investment pays for itself, across three growth scenarios.

  • Cumulative incremental revenue at 12 months
  • ROI percentage over the full year of investment
  • Estimated payback month, and it tells you honestly when 12 months isn't enough
  • Three scenarios: conservative +30%, medium +60% and ambitious +100%

Your real numbers

Organic traffic, conversion rate, lead close rate, value per customer and monthly investment. No hidden assumptions.

02

Three scenarios

Conservative +30%, medium +60% and ambitious +100% traffic growth at 12 months, with a gradual adoption curve.

03

The business case

Cumulative incremental revenue, total investment, ROI percentage and estimated payback month, ready for your deck.

The SEO projects that get funded aren't the ones that promise the most. They're the ones that show up with a defensible number, a conservative scenario and a payback date finance can review without blushing.

Frequently asked questions

What do I need before using it?+

Four numbers: monthly organic traffic, conversion rate, average value per customer and monthly SEO investment. All of them come from analytics and your CRM.

Why doesn't growth show up in month 1?+

Because SEO doesn't work that way. The calculator ramps growth gradually month over month until it reaches the scenario percentage in month 12.

Which scenario should I present?+

Present all three. The conservative one protects your credibility, the medium one is usually realistic, and the ambitious one shows the ceiling of the channel.

Do you store my data?+

No, the calculator runs entirely in your browser. We only ask for name and email to give you access.

Want to validate these assumptions with your own data?

On enterprise projects we build the model with your real traffic, your competitive landscape and cluster-level potential, so the business case holds up to any question.
