Why this number

What lifts the estimate and what holds it back

Niche: Entertainment

$0.80 to $5 per 1,000 views

$0typical $2$10

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

Where viewers likely are

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

Neutral

Shorts in the mix

Long 98%Shorts 2%

Shorts pay about $0.13 per 1,000 views, a small fraction of long videos, so the same views earn much less.

Holds back

Videos under 8 minutes

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 9, 2026, 23:00 UTC.
