[0:00] YouTube shows ads on the videos that you [0:02] upload at the beginning sometimes in the [0:04] middle and at the end of your videos [0:06] once you get 4,000 hours of watch time [0:08] and 1,000 subscribers then you can join [0:10] What's called the YouTube Partner [0:12] program then YouTube will pay you a cut [0:14] of the revenue and that's what we're [0:15] going to be talking about in this video [0:17] how much you actually make now I [0:19] personally run a ton of different [0:20] YouTube channels and I did some research [0:22] into both my own channels and other [0:24] people who've uploaded videos talking [0:26] about how much money they make per [0:27] thousand views and the answer is that [0:29] channels make between $1 and $30 per [0:32] th000 views so the average Channel based [0:34] on my research makes [0:36] $115.50 per th000 views but with that [0:38] being said most channels from my [0:40] personal experience only get around $5 [0:42] to $10 per thousand views that you make [0:44] now in order to make more money per [0:46] th000 views you can do a couple things [0:48] first of all you can create a channel [0:49] and what's called a high RPM Niche now [0:52] RPM is how much you actually make per [0:54] thousand views and depending on the [0:55] niche that you're in some advertisers [0:57] pay more money to put ads on videos than [1:00] others for example apple is one of the [1:02] top advertisers on YouTube and they're [1:04] likely going to be putting their ads on [1:05] technology videos and Expedia is another [1:08] one of the top advertisers and they're [1:09] likely going to be putting their ads on [1:10] travel videos now here's a list of some [1:12] of the highest CPM niches so feel free [1:14] to pause this and screenshot if you want [1:16] they include Finance make money online [1:18] technology Health investing travel legal [1:22] Insurance makeup marketing real estate [1:25] Cars movies and DIY and tutorials but [1:28] with that being said some channels in [1:30] lower CPM niches can get more overall [1:32] views some examples of low RPM niches [1:35] include pranks scary videos gaming [1:38] videos depending on the game that you're [1:39] playing and general top 10 videos [1:42] another way to make more money per th000 [1:44] views is to create videos longer than 8 [1:46] minutes then you can go to your YouTube [1:48] Studio then go to content and then go [1:50] down here and select any of your videos [1:52] once you're monetized go down here to [1:54] the monetization tab and then from here [1:57] you can add multiple different ad breaks [1:59] if you click manage mid rolls right here [2:01] and you can put multiple different ad [2:03] breaks throughout your video as you can [2:05] see in this video right here since it's [2:06] longer than 8 minutes we have 1 2 3 four [2:09] ad breaks instead of just one if the [2:11] video was shorter than 8 minutes and I [2:13] recommend spacing out your ad breaks at [2:14] least every couple minutes so it doesn't [2:16] interrupt the viewing experience too [2:18] much with that being said don't just [2:19] make videos for the sake of them being [2:21] long so you can put multiple ad braks [2:23] because there's a trade-off if you make [2:24] long videos without actually providing [2:26] value so if you make a longer video make [2:28] sure to only make it longer by providing [2:30] in more value to the end viewer and [2:31] remember value can be either educational [2:33] or entertainment value and keep in mind [2:35] videos at every length can go viral now [2:37] I'm going to let you in on a little [2:39] secret and that secret is that this [2:41] channel that you're watching right now [2:42] makes over [2:44] $200 per th000 views now you might be [2:46] saying Matt how in the world is that [2:48] possible if channels typically only [2:49] range from $1 to $30 per th000 views and [2:52] let me let you in on a secret this is by [2:54] selling a digital product with my [2:56] channel which is my YouTube course tube [2:58] Mastery and monetization and we we [2:59] average around $100,000 per month with [3:02] this channel whereas ad Revenue only [3:04] brings in like $6 to 12,000 per month [3:06] make sure to check out my video on 12 [3:08] different digital product ideas that you [3:09] can sell from your channel I go over a [3:12] bunch of different digital product ideas [3:13] that you could potentially use to make [3:15] even more money for 1,000 views and link [3:17] to that video will be down in the [3:18] description below now let's break down [3:20] how much YouTube channels could be [3:21] earning this channel right here called [3:23] chills uploads videos within the scary [3:25] Niche and I'm using an extension called [3:27] vid IQ to see how many views per month [3:29] that they get so if I click this they're [3:30] getting 6.5 million views per month now [3:33] if we copy this number and open up a [3:35] calculator I'll show you exactly how to [3:37] do the math on this you take the number [3:38] of views per month they're getting [3:39] divide it by a th000 and this will show [3:42] you how many thousands of views per [3:43] month they're getting and then we [3:44] multiply this by their likely RPM and in [3:48] my opinion their RPM is probably $2 to [3:50] $3 per th000 views so let's say $3 per [3:53] th000 views since this is a little bit [3:54] of a low CPM Niche this channel would be [3:56] making about $20,000 per month and this [3:59] channel called new money uploads videos [4:01] in the investing Niche and related to [4:03] finance and if we see how many views per [4:04] month they're getting they're getting [4:05] 1.9 million if we do that same exact [4:08] calculation where we take this divide by [4:09] a th000 and then multiply by their CPM [4:12] which I would estimate to be around $ 20 [4:13] to $30 per th000 views since investing [4:16] make money online and finance is a [4:18] really high CPM Niche let's say $20 per [4:20] th000 views that means this channel [4:22] would be making [4:24] $309,000 per month and that's just from [4:26] ad Revenue not counting if they sold a [4:28] digital product so as you can see this [4:30] channel could be making more money per [4:31] month than that first channel we looked [4:33] at even though it's getting less views [4:35] this channel Tech Zone uploads [4:37] technology videos and the channel pulls [4:39] in 46 million views per month and if we [4:42] do the same exact calculation but this [4:43] time putting in an RPM of say $10 per [4:46] th000 views that means this channel [4:48] would be making almost half a million [4:50] dollars per month which is crazy and in [4:52] this video I used RPM and CPM kind of [4:54] interchangeably but RPM is how much you [4:57] actually make per th000 views and when I [4:59] say CPM I really mean RPM check out this [5:02] video next to me
