- wp-config.php
- Lets assume that your website is www.example.com and you have a second site at either “number2.example.com” or “www.example.com/number2” as either one works for this.
- in your main site’s config file (www.example.com) you will be adding a few lines
define('SECRET_SALT', 'Random_String'); define('ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH', '/'); define('COOKIEPATH', '/'); define('SITECOOKIEPATH', '/'); define('COOKIEHASH', md5('Random_String'));
- Replace “Random_String” with a random string of letters, numbers, and characters. I just used the WordPress salt generator and took one of the strings from there.
- I know that was difficult to do but now your website’s will use the same cookies for their logins…
- NOTE: If you have two WordPress installs you will use the exact same settings above for BOTH wp-config.php files.
Explore a website growth scenario
Change the assumptions to see how traffic and inquiries affect the estimated lifetime revenue of customers acquired in one month. The starting values are examples. This calculator does not measure lost revenue or predict what a redesign will achieve.
Use the same monthly period for visitors and leads.
Use distinct inquiries attributable to those visitors.
Your own estimate of the share that fits your business.
Use your observed rate or label it as an assumption.
Revenue across the customer relationship, before costs.
A scenario you choose, not a prediction from Stoute.
For example, adding 1 point changes a 2% conversion rate to 3%.
One month’s acquired customers
- Customers under current assumptions
- 3.0
- Customers in your scenario
- 3.0
- Current cohort’s estimated lifetime revenue
- $3,000
- Scenario cohort’s estimated lifetime revenue
- $3,000
- Difference across those customers’ lifetimes
- $0
Visitor-to-lead rate: 2.0% → 2.0%. Scenario conversion is limited to 0–100%. Fractional customers represent an average, not a literal customer count.
These amounts are gross lifetime revenue, not monthly cash flow, profit, or return on investment. The model holds qualification, close rate, and customer value constant. It excludes project costs, advertising, delivery costs, and payment timing.
