Estimate YouTube earnings from views and RPM.
| Period | Views | Low estimate | High estimate |

RPM (revenue per mille) is what you earn per 1,000 views after YouTube's share. Typical long-form RPMs range from under 1 to over 10 depending on topic, audience country, season and ad blockers. Shorts RPMs are usually far lower, often 0.01 to 0.10. This is a rough estimate, not a prediction. Real earnings depend on monetisation status and how many views carry ads.

Questions people ask
How is the estimate calculated?
Earnings = views ÷ 1,000 × RPM. For example, 10,000 views a day at an RPM of 3 is 30 a day, or about 900 a month.
What is the difference between RPM and CPM?
CPM is what advertisers pay per 1,000 ad impressions. RPM is what you earn per 1,000 views after YouTube’s share, counting views with no ads, so RPM is lower.
Why is my real income different?
RPM changes with topic, viewer country, time of year and ad blockers. You must also be in the YouTube Partner Program to earn from ads.
