Why this number

What lifts the estimate and what holds it back

Holds back

Niche: Music

$0.80 to $4 per 1,000 views

$0typical $2$10

Long videos in this niche typically pay about $2 per 1,000 views to the creator.

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

82% of views this month

Long 18%Shorts 82%

Shorts pay about $0.12 per 1,000 views, a small fraction of long videos, so the same views earn much less.

Holds back

Videos under 8 minutes

median 5 min

Below 8 minutes YouTube only shows ads before and after, so each view pays less.

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 8, 2026, 14:00 UTC.
