Shorts in the mix

Long 63%Shorts 37%

Shorts pay about $0.17 per 1,000 views, a small fraction of long videos, so the same views earn much less.

Live tracking

A snapshot every 3 hours and a full rescan every day. Subscribers, views a day, the estimate and the monetize date, charted on your dashboard.

A sample page, so there is nothing to track here.

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 October 17, 2026, 09:30 UTC.
