Long 100%Shorts 0%
Shorts pay about $0.10 per 1,000 views, a small fraction of long videos, so the same views earn much less.

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, 09:20 UTC.
