Hi, I’m Hilary Erickson from The Pregnancy Nurse.

My blog income spreadsheet outperforms “normal” tracking (like ad dashboards or a simple Excel total) in a few key ways:

  1. It calculates true RPM/CPM per network, using your actual sessions and income. Many ad companies’ reported RPMs are off, especially when you use different mobile vs desktop networks.
  2. It pulls all income sources together (ads, affiliates, sponsored posts, own products) so you see total blog CPM and how each stream is really performing.
  3. You just plug numbers in; the formulas do the analysis, so you can compare month to month and year to year without re‑building anything.

Would it help if I walked you through exactly which numbers to enter and how often to track them?
