Questions and answers

What is RPM?

RPM (revenue per mille) is what you actually earn per 1,000 views after YouTube's share. You'll find your real RPM in YouTube Studio → Analytics → Revenue.

Why is the range so wide?

Earnings depend on the niche, the viewers' countries, the season and how many views are monetized. Finance and business pay much more per view than gaming or music.

How much do Shorts pay?

Shorts earn far less per view than long videos — usually a few cents per 1,000 views — because ad revenue is pooled and shared across creators.
