Frequently asked questions

How much does YouTube pay per 1,000 views?

Creators typically earn about $0.25 to $4 per 1,000 views from ads (RPM), with finance, business and tech often higher and kids, music and gaming lower. Country, season and audience matter a lot, so treat any number as an estimate.

How much money does a YouTuber make with 1 million views?

At $0.25–$4 RPM, 1,000,000 views earn roughly $250 to $4,000 from ads. High-RPM niches like finance can earn more.

What is RPM vs CPM?

CPM is what advertisers pay per 1,000 ad impressions. RPM is what the creator actually receives per 1,000 views after YouTube's share and views without ads, so RPM is the right number for estimating creator income.

How accurate is this YouTube money calculator?

It is an estimate only. Real earnings depend on monetized views, ad formats, audience location and YouTube's revenue share, and exclude sponsorships, memberships and merch. Only the creator's YouTube Studio shows actual revenue.

Where do the channel numbers come from?

Daily views for listed channels are estimated from the growth of the channel's public total view count between our weekly snapshots of its YouTube page, or from views on its latest uploads (public YouTube feed).
