EPC benchmarks
- Under $0.10 — Low; traffic is not purchase-intent
- $0.10 – $0.49 — Decent; room to optimize
- $0.50 – $0.99 — Excellent; scale this content
- $1.00+ — Outstanding; high-ticket or SaaS
High-intent content wins
Bottom-of-funnel content — reviews, comparisons, "best X" roundups — converts 3-5x better than informational posts. If your EPC is low, audit your content mix before looking at programs.
Commission rate comparison
- Amazon Associates: 1-10% (category-dependent)
- Physical niche products: 5-15%
- SaaS / software: 20-40% recurring
- Digital products: 30-50% one-time
