Essential comparison

Margin vs markup is the content wedge that earns trust

Most users confuse these terms. That confusion is a great SEO angle and a strong conversion path into both calculators.

Margin

Margin is the percentage of revenue left after covering the cost of goods sold.

Margin = (Revenue - Cost) / Revenue × 100
  • Best for profit reporting
  • Often used by finance and operators
  • Tells you how much of the sale you keep

Markup

Markup is the percentage added to cost to decide on the selling price.

Markup = (Revenue - Cost) / Cost × 100
  • Best for setting prices
  • Common in retail and service quoting
  • Tells you how much you add on top of cost

FAQ

Questions the homepage should answer early

Who is PricingDeck for?

PricingDeck is for freelancers, e-commerce sellers, small business owners, and operators who need quick pricing decisions without opening a spreadsheet.

Why start with pricing calculators instead of generic converters?

Pricing calculators usually carry better commercial intent, stronger ad value, and more useful internal-linking opportunities than pure unit conversion pages.

What makes these pages different from existing calculator sites?

The goal is not just outputting a number. Each page should explain the formula, show examples, compare related concepts, and help the user make a better pricing decision.
