See How Any Website Earns

Enter a website address and the checker shows the income tools it can see on the home page, grouped into six kinds:

  • Advertising: ad networks and managers such as Google AdSense, Mediavine, Raptive (AdThrive), Ezoic, Taboola and Outbrain.
  • Affiliate links: links through Amazon Associates, ShareASale, Impact, CJ, Awin, Rakuten and others, with a count of each.
  • Online shop: Shopify, WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, Gumroad, Lemon Squeezy and similar.
  • Memberships and courses: MemberPress, LearnDash, Kajabi, Ghost memberships and others.
  • Newsletter: sign-up forms from Mailchimp, Kit (ConvertKit), beehiiv, Substack, MailerLite and more.
  • Donations and tips: Patreon, Buy Me a Coffee, Ko-fi, GiveWP and PayPal.

How It Works

The checker loads the home page once, the way a browser would, and looks for the scripts, forms and links each service adds. A Mediavine site loads Mediavine's ad script; an Amazon affiliate link carries an associate tag. Every finding lists the evidence it's based on, under How we know.

What It Can't See

  • Income off the page: client work, consulting, sponsorships written into articles or a shop on another domain.
  • Other pages: many blogs only show ads and affiliate links inside articles. Check an article's address to see those.
  • Revenue: the checker shows which tools a site uses, not how much it earns.
