Niche: Cooking
$2 to $5 per 1,000 views
Long videos in this niche typically pay about $3 per 1,000 views to the creator.
Where viewers likely are
73% of US ad rates
Based on the channel's language and country (English speaking audience). Ads pay far more in the US, UK, Canada and Australia than elsewhere.
Shorts in the mix
23% of views this month
Shorts pay about $0.11 per 1,000 views, a small fraction of long videos, so the same views earn much less.
Long enough for mid roll ads
median 15 min
Videos of 8 minutes or more can carry ads in the middle, which lifts earnings per view.
Upload pace: steady
3.11 per week
That is 1.08x the 90 days before.
Views per video are falling
0.75x
Median views of the last 10 long videos compared with the 10 before them.
Old videos still bring views
5.1M views a month
Uploads older than three years, and the ones we did not read, keep getting watched. We count them at half their lifetime average pace, a conservative guess, capped by the channel's lifetime average.
