Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the YouTube Money Calculator.
Back to the toolHow much does YouTube pay per 1,000 views?
Creators earn an RPM (revenue per 1,000 views) that often ranges from about $0.30 to $10+, depending on niche, audience country and season. Finance and tech channels with US viewers earn the most.
What is the difference between CPM and RPM?
CPM is what advertisers pay per 1,000 ad impressions. RPM is what you actually earn per 1,000 views after YouTube’s share and views without ads — so RPM is always lower.
How much do YouTube Shorts pay?
Shorts RPM is much lower, often $0.02–$0.10 per 1,000 views, because revenue is pooled and shared.
