How to Estimate Your Blog’s Recurring Income: The Blogger’s Annuity Proof Guide
Have you ever wondered how much your blog is really worth in recurring income? Whether you’re aiming for investor proof, insurance submissions, or just understanding your digital content’s value, estimating your blog’s “annuity” is key.
In this post, we break down traffic, engagement, and conversion metrics into estimated income, showing at what point your blog begins generating meaningful recurring revenue.
1. Why Blog Income is Like an Annuity
An annuity is essentially a stream of recurring income over time. Your blog can act like a digital annuity if it generates:
- Ad revenue (Google AdSense, Media.net, etc.)
- Affiliate revenue (Amazon Associates, affiliate programs)
- Direct subscriptions or donations (Patreon, Ko-fi, memberships)
By tracking monthly revenue and demonstrating stability, you can create a proof-of-annuities statement for investors, insurance, or welfare submissions.
2. Estimating Income by Blog Traffic
Here’s a simple model to estimate your monthly income based on your blog’s traffic, engagement, and conversion metrics:

Notes on Calculation:
- Ad Revenue: $2 per 1,000 views for small blogs (CPM).
- Engagement Revenue: $0.10 per engagement (likes, shares, comments).
- Conversion Revenue: $5 per subscription, download, or donation.
3. Key Insights
- Blogs with under 1,000 monthly views generate minimal income ($0–$13/month), primarily hobbyist-level.
- Blogs with 10,000+ monthly views start generating meaningful recurring revenue ($50–$130/month).
- Once a blog reaches 50,000–100,000 views/month, it can support a moderate professional income or even full-time work.
- Tracking recurring income over time allows you to create proof-of-annuities reports, demonstrating a reliable stream of digital revenue.
4. How to Use This for Proof-of-Annuity
If you’re a blogger looking to show income stability:
- Collect verified income data: Bank statements, ad platform exports, affiliate reports.
- Track traffic and engagement: Pageviews, likes, shares, comments, conversions.
- Generate a monthly report: Include verified revenue and trends over 3–6 months.
- Optional verification: Add blockchain hashes or notarization for immutable proof.
This report can support:
- Investor pitches
- Insurance applications
- Welfare submissions
Remember: Only verified deposits are legally binding; engagement metrics are supportive evidence.
5. Final Thoughts
Even a small blog can act as a digital annuity if it generates consistent income. By tracking traffic, engagement, and conversions, and converting these into monetized estimates, bloggers can produce credible proof-of-annuities statements — valuable for both financial and social applications.
If your blog is just starting, focus on growing traffic and conversions; even modest growth can significantly increase your monthly recurring income and annuity credibility.
If you want, I can also create charts and visualizations to embed in the blog post, showing income versus traffic and making it visually compelling for readers.
Do you want me to generate those charts next?
