How Much YouTube Pays for 1K Views (No One Explains This)

[00:00] Have you been asking yourself, how much

[00:01] money does YouTube pay for 1,000 views?

[00:04] In this video, I'm going to share with

[00:05] you how much YouTube pays me for 1,000

[00:08] views. And if you're monetized, but your

[00:10] YouTube earnings are not stable. In this

[00:12] particular video, I'm going to share

[00:13] with you a few tips that you can use to

[00:15] increase your YouTube revenue. I

[00:17] remember when I was just beginning

[00:18] [music] YouTube, my first time to begin

[00:19] a YouTube channel, I used to ask myself

[00:21] a lot of questions. Is YouTube really

[00:23] worth it? And I know a lot of newbies

[00:25] out there are asking themselves this

[00:27] kind of a question. Is YouTube really

[00:29] worth it? Can YouTube pay you better

[00:30] than your current job? You're asking

[00:32] yourself once you get monetized, can

[00:33] YouTube pay all your bills and you live

[00:35] a better life? By the end of this video,

[00:37] you're going to get all answers to such

[00:39] questions. And without wasting [music]

[00:40] any time, let's get started. Hey

[00:42] creators, [snorts] welcome back to my

[00:43] YouTube channel. If this is your first

[00:44] time to be my channel, my name is Ben.

[00:46] On this channel, I make videos about

[00:47] tools, tips, and strategies on how to

[00:49] grow on YouTube. So, make sure to

[00:50] subscribe, turn on notifications, and

[00:52] don't forget to like this video. Let's

[00:54] grow together. Now, I'm going to use

[00:55] three different videos from my channel

[00:57] right here. And the reason why I'm using

[00:59] three different videos from my channel,

[01:01] it is because these videos have

[01:03] different features. The features this

[01:05] video have, they make them earn

[01:07] differently. For example, if a video

[01:09] gets more views from the US and another

[01:11] video gets more views from Nigeria, a

[01:14] video that got more views from the US,

[01:16] it's going to earn more money for every

[01:17] 1,000 views it gets. But a video that

[01:20] got views from Nigeria is going to earn

[01:22] more money for every 1,000 views. And

[01:24] now, let's begin with this video right

[01:26] here. This video has almost 6,000 views

[01:29] earned me $8. Now, a video with almost

[01:31] 6,000 views earning $8, that is very

[01:35] poor. It is very low. And I'm going to

[01:37] show you why this video is actually

[01:39] earning me low money. And I'm going to

[01:40] show you how much YouTube is paying me

[01:42] for every 1,000 views on this video. And

[01:44] I'm also going to tell you why. So that

[01:47] when you get monetized or if you're

[01:48] monetized right now, you avoid doing

[01:50] these things or avoid including these

[01:52] features in your videos. And now

[01:53] [snorts] before I continue, allow me

[01:55] introduce today's sponsors. This video

[01:56] is sponsored by Nexus Clips, and I want

[01:58] to be real with you for a second. Every

[02:00] creator knows their struggle. You pour

[02:02] time, energy, and creativity into a

[02:04] video, but the views just don't match

[02:06] the effort. It's not that your content

[02:08] isn't good. It's that people are not

[02:10] seeing it. Yes, it's not reaching them.

[02:12] That's where Nexus Clips changes the

[02:14] game. It helps you take your long videos

[02:15] and automatically find the moments

[02:17] people are most likely to watch and

[02:19] share. AI cards, formats, and captions

[02:22] them for YouTube shorts, Tik Tok, and

[02:24] reals in just few clicks. It is the same

[02:26] method big creators like Mr. Beast used

[02:28] to stay everywhere at once, turning one

[02:30] great idea into hundreds of viral clips

[02:32] that reach millions. You don't need a

[02:34] full editing setup or a team behind you.

[02:36] With Nexus Clips, all you need is your

[02:38] video and the rest is handled. If you're

[02:40] serious about growing faster, stay

[02:42] consistent, and finally getting your

[02:44] work seen, check out Nexus Clips. The

[02:46] link is right below in the description

[02:48] with a promo code. This could be the

[02:50] tool that takes your content to the next

[02:51] level. So, mind to check it out. All

[02:53] right, let's first see how much YouTube

[02:54] is paying me for every 1,000 views on

[02:57] this particular video. As you see, the

[02:59] CPM of this video is $3.18.

[03:02] CPM, it is how much advertisers pay

[03:05] YouTube to advertise on this video. And

[03:07] now, RPM, it is $1.37.

[03:11] RPM, it is how much YouTube pays you as

[03:14] a creator. This RPM, it is deducted from

[03:17] the CPM. After YouTube deducting their

[03:19] money from the CPM, what remains? It is

[03:22] RPM, which is your payment. And the

[03:24] reason why the CPM and RPM of this

[03:26] video, it is low. The first thing, this

[03:29] video is [music] short. This video is

[03:30] just 6 minutes. If you've been watching

[03:32] my videos, I've been always saying that

[03:34] upload longer videos on YouTube. Upload

[03:37] videos that at least 8 minutes or

[03:39] longer. Only videos longer than 8

[03:41] minutes are eligible for midroll ads.

[03:44] I've been saying this that if you make a

[03:45] video that is not 8 minutes longer, if

[03:47] you make a video that is 4 minutes, 5

[03:49] minutes, 3 minutes, 6 minutes, or even 7

[03:52] minutes, YouTube doesn't allow you to

[03:54] put ads in between that video. And if

[03:57] you don't put ads in between your

[03:59] videos, it is equivalent to getting low

[04:01] payments. It literally means that you're

[04:02] going to earn low money. And that's the

[04:04] same case that you're seeing on this

[04:06] video. This video I'm not able to put

[04:08] intermediate ads because this video is

[04:10] less than 8 minutes. And if I don't put

[04:12] intermediate ads, it literally means

[04:14] that my video is going to earn low money

[04:16] because it is the ads that make YouTube

[04:18] to pay us creators. Now, this is my

[04:20] second video right here. This video has

[04:22] 12,000 views and this video has earned

[04:25] me $100. This is better compared to the

[04:27] last video. And I'm going to be

[04:29] explaining why. First of all, as you

[04:31] see, this video is longer than 8

[04:33] minutes. This video is 11 minutes. And

[04:35] when we go to monetization right here,

[04:37] you're going to see that I can put

[04:39] intermediate ads in between this video.

[04:41] As you see right here, I have

[04:43] intermediate ads, which is not the case

[04:44] with the previous video. The previous

[04:46] video, I cannot put ads in between it.

[04:49] And that's why I'm earning low money on

[04:51] that video. Let's go straight to CPM and

[04:53] RPM and see how everything is actually

[04:56] standing. I'll definitely scroll down

[04:58] here and we can see the RPM and CPM. How

[05:00] much advertisers pay. This is the CPM.

[05:03] As you see, advertisers are paying $15

[05:05] for every 1,000 views to advertise on

[05:08] this video. And YouTube is paying me $8

[05:11] from $15. That is very good. It is

[05:14] better than the previous video. Now, if

[05:16] you're not monetized right now and

[05:17] you're chasing for monetization, you

[05:19] need to begin considering this because

[05:21] if you don't consider this earlier,

[05:23] you're going to get monetized and after

[05:25] getting monetized, you're going to earn

[05:26] low money. So, the first thing I

[05:28] mentioned here, it is making videos that

[05:30] are 8 minutes or longer. As you see,

[05:32] this video is 11 minutes and this video

[05:34] is actually earning better money. And

[05:36] the second thing that is making this

[05:38] video pay me $8 per 1,000 views it gets,

[05:41] it is about the audience. The biggest

[05:43] deal here is United States. 10% of

[05:45] viewers on this video are from the US,

[05:48] which will make YouTube pay me better

[05:49] money. YouTube is paying me $8 per 1,000

[05:53] views I get on this video. And now,

[05:55] let's go to the third video right here,

[05:56] and I'm going to show you how much

[05:58] YouTube is actually paying me on this

[06:00] video. Now, as you see, this video has

[06:01] 43,000 views and YouTube has paid me

[06:04] $570.

[06:07] This is very good earnings because some

[06:08] creators to earn $500, they need at

[06:11] least 100,000 views or even beyond

[06:13] 100,000 views. But with only $43,000

[06:16] views, YouTube has paid me $570.

[06:20] Now, let's go to revenue and see the RPM

[06:22] and CPM of this video. But before we go

[06:24] to revenue, I would like to also mention

[06:26] this. As you see, this video is more

[06:28] than 8 minutes. This video is 11 minutes

[06:31] and 45 [music] seconds. And when we go

[06:33] to monetization right here, you're going

[06:35] to realize that I'm able to put

[06:37] intermediate ads. I'm able to put ads in

[06:39] between this video. And as you see, this

[06:41] video has 1 2 3 four intermediate ads in

[06:45] between it. Meaning, this video is

[06:47] selling more products. [music] And

[06:48] that's why YouTube is paying me more

[06:50] money. Now, let's first look at how much

[06:52] YouTube is paying me for every 1,000

[06:54] views on this particular video. On this

[06:56] video, advertisers are paying YouTube

[06:59] $24.29

[07:01] [music] to advertise for every 1,000

[07:04] views. And YouTube is paying me $13.27

[07:07] to advertise or to run ads on my video,

[07:11] which is the RPM, $13 per 1,000 views.

[07:15] That is very great and it is very rare.

[07:17] And I'm going to mention now the

[07:18] features or the things that made this

[07:20] video earn this kind of [music] good

[07:21] money. And the first thing of course it

[07:23] is this video is 8 minutes longer. This

[07:26] video is 11 minutes as you see right

[07:28] here. And apart from that when look at

[07:30] geographies it is the United States on

[07:33] top with 14% and Nigeria second with 14%

[07:37] Kenya with 4.9 and India South Africa as

[07:41] you see right here. And getting more

[07:42] views from the US it literally means

[07:44] that my video is going to earn more

[07:46] money. And as you see this video is

[07:48] earning more money. If you [snorts]
