About 304K views a month.

Typical RPM band: $4.00 – $12 per 1,000 views.

Advertiser bids vary sharply by market — this is usually the biggest single factor.

The share of views that actually serve an ad. Most channels sit between 40% and 70%.

Estimate

Enter a view count to see the estimate

The estimate covers YouTube ad revenue only — not sponsorships, memberships, or affiliate income.

Estimate what a YouTube channel earns from ads. Enter your views, pick your niche and audience location, and see daily, monthly, and yearly revenue ranges with the RPM behind them.

An ad revenue estimate you can actually check

Most earnings calculators hand back one number with no explanation. This one shows the working: the RPM band for your niche, the multiplier for where your audience watches from, the effect of your monetized playback rate, and the arithmetic that turns those into a monthly range.

That matters because YouTube ad revenue is not a single figure. Two channels with a million views a month can be an order of magnitude apart depending on whether advertisers are bidding for financial-services viewers in the United States or entertainment viewers in a low-CPM market.
