I have spent 12 years buying traffic and hiring the people who buy it, and the one thing that separates operators from button-pushers is fluency with the numbers. Not fancy dashboards. The actual formulas, and knowing which ones lie to you when you read them alone.
This is the cheat sheet I wish someone had handed me on day one. Every metric here has a name, a formula in plain text, a line on what it actually tells you, and a note on how to read it without fooling yourself. Keep it next to your reporting tab and stop guessing.
