How to use
- 1Choose the platform and your content niche.
- 2Enter daily or per-video views (only monetized views count).
How it's calculated
Earnings = views ÷ 1,000 × RPM (revenue per 1,000 views after the platform's share). Typical YouTube long-form RPMs run about $1–3 for entertainment up to $10–20+ for finance and business; Shorts and TikTok pay much less per view.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between CPM and RPM?
CPM is what advertisers pay per 1,000 ad impressions. RPM is what the creator actually earns per 1,000 views, after YouTube's 45% share and unmonetized views.
Why do finance channels earn more?
Advertisers pay more to reach audiences with high purchasing intent, like finance, insurance and B2B software.
Is ad revenue the main income?
For many creators, sponsorships, memberships and products earn more than ads. This estimates ad revenue only.
