3. Key Metrics for E-commerce Analysis
Average Order Value (AOV):
Average order value (AOV) is an e-commerce metric that calculates the average amount in dollars
that a customer spends when making an order on your website. Measuring the AOV is simple:
You divide the total amount of revenue over a given period by the number of orders in that
period.
ConversionRate:
An e-commerce company's conversion rate is the percentage of website visitors who become
paying customers of your business. The e-commerce conversion rate can be calculated by dividing
the number of customers by the total number of visitors to your website.
Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC):
A high conversion rate is a good sign that your business is doing something right — but what if
you're spending too much money to convert those customers? The customer acquisition cost
(CAC) is an e-commerce metric that measures the price of converting the average customer. You
can calculate CAC by dividing your total marketing expenses over a period of time by the total
number of customers acquired during that time.
Customer Lifetime Value (CLV):
The good news is that a high CAC may be balanced out by repeat customers who make many
purchases on your website. The customer lifetime value (CLV) is an e-commerce metric that
estimates how much the average customer will be worth to your business (i.e., the total revenue)
throughout the entire future relationship.
