| Organic Search | $18,000 | 5,000 | $3.60 |
| Meta Ads | $15,500 | 4,500 | $3.44 |
| Email | $8,500 | 1,500 | $5.67 |
| Direct | $5,500 | 1,500 | $3.67 |
| Total | $47,500 | 12,500 | $3.80 |
How It Works
Revenue per Visitor divides total Shopify order revenue by the number of unique visitors tracked through the Upstack pixel. This metric combines purchase data from your Shopify store with visitor identity resolution to measure the monetary value each visitor brings to your site.
