Note
This is a simplified model: it applies the counts, rates, prices and fees you enter to plain arithmetic. Every platform cut, payment fee, CPM, royalty per play and commission rate is a value you supply, because no platform's revenue share, advertising rate or payout rate is fixed: they change over time and differ by country, contract, category, audience and season. Engagement, open, click and unsubscribe rates are the standard definitions, but each platform and email tool counts interactions, reach, delivered mail and opens differently, so a rate is only comparable against numbers counted the same way; image-blocking and privacy features in particular make open rates unreliable. Revenue estimates ignore taxes, withholding, currency conversion, refunds, chargebacks, invalid traffic, minimum payout thresholds and payment delays. The churn projection assumes a constant monthly churn rate and a constant number of new subscribers, which real audiences never follow. Treat every figure as a rough planning estimate, not a forecast of what you will be paid, and check your own platform statements and any contract before relying on it. This is not financial, tax or legal advice.

How is follower growth rate calculated?+
Subtract your starting follower count from your ending follower count, divide by the starting count, then multiply by 100. Going from 1,000 to 1,100 followers in a month is a 10% growth rate for that period.
Why does the same number of new followers produce a shrinking growth rate over time?+
Because growth rate is relative to your existing base — gaining 100 followers is 10% growth at 1,000 followers but only 1% growth at 10,000, so accounts need increasingly larger absolute gains just to maintain the same percentage rate.
What's a healthy monthly follower growth rate?+
It varies widely by niche and account size, but sustained 2-5% monthly growth is generally considered solid for an active, growing account; very new accounts can see much higher percentages simply because their base is small, which isn't necessarily comparable to an established account's rate.
Should I calculate growth rate weekly, monthly, or over a campaign period?+
Match the period to your decision — weekly rates catch short-term spikes from a viral post, monthly rates smooth out noise for general trend-tracking, and campaign-period rates isolate the impact of a specific push like an ad or collaboration.
Does a negative growth rate always mean I'm losing engagement?+
Not necessarily — it can reflect a platform purging inactive or fake accounts, a policy change, or a one-time unfollow spike unrelated to your content quality. Look at engagement rate alongside follower count to get the fuller picture.
