How much would you pay to get 18k organic visitors per month?

So this month I broke a bit over 18k google search visitors on my blog site.

I did over 20k visitors to my website with other types of search engines, and platforms.

Last month it did 11k visitors: https://www.indiehackers.com/post/code-blog-has-reached-11k-organic-visits-monthly-98c9d963f7

I'm projected to hit close to 30k organic visitors next month. How valuable is this traffic to your business? How much would you pay to get results like this?

    Number doesn't mean something. Retention, interest, bounce rate, niche...are variables that are interesting for an advertiser.
    Otherwise, there is facebook ad and google ad, and other ad plateform....
    Don't focus on number, even with a blog with 5k of traffic, you can monetize that many $$.

      I think you're mixing content marketing vs content strategy.

      You can't improve your content strategy if your content marketing ain't pulling traffic.

      Yes, you can purchase ads, but doesn't mean they're quality leads.

      If the average CPC is $2, do you want to continue paying $10k for 5k visitors to your site?

      when you can just have that for free every month?

      It's all a numbers game, right? If you have a 3% conversion rate .

      5k * .03 = 150

      or

      20k * .03 = 540

    It depends. Is it traffic from Tier 1 countries? Is it traffic with commercial intent? Too many variables here. CPCs can go from $0.10 to more than $10 so it's impossible to say.

      Well in your industry or niche, what is the average cpc?

      Average google cpc is $2. Average cpc in Facebook ads is $1

        I don't know, in my niche (digital marketing) I usually tend to get organic traffic not paid one but it's a pretty competitive niche so I think CPCs are crazy high.
