Why this number

What lifts the estimate and what holds it back

Helps

Niche: History

$3 to $10 per 1,000 views

$0typical $5$15

Long videos in this niche typically pay about $5 per 1,000 views to the creator. We are not sure about the niche, so the range is wider.

Helps

Where viewers likely are

93% of US ad rates

0%US rates

Based on the channel's language and country (English, based in GB). Ads pay far more in the US, UK, Canada and Australia than elsewhere.

Holds back

Mostly Shorts views

84% of views this month

Long 16%Shorts 84%

Shorts pay about $0.16 per 1,000 views, a small fraction of long videos, so the same views earn much less.

Helps

Long enough for mid roll ads

median 51 min

Videos of 8 minutes or more can carry ads in the middle, which lifts earnings per view.

How we got this. Views from the last 30 days are rebuilt from each public video's views and age, cut to the views YouTube pays on, then priced with niche, audience and video length ad rates from published creator data. We run this 2,000 times with realistic variation and show the middle half. Data read November 11, 2026, 18:00 UTC.
