KViral Coefficient

Definition

The Viral Coefficient (K-factor) indicates how many new users an existing user brings in on average. A K-factor above 1.0 means exponential (viral) growth – each user brings in more than one new user. In performance marketing, the viral coefficient is used to evaluate the organic multiplier effect of paid reach.

Formula

K = Average Invitations per User × Conversion Rate of Invitations

Optimization Tips
