How accurate are these earnings estimates?
Earnings are calculated using conservative industry benchmarks including an estimated CPM of $4.00 and RPM of $2.50 combined with publicly available YouTube statistics. Actual revenue varies depending on audience geography, niche, monetization eligibility, and advertiser demand.
What affects YouTube RPM the most?
RPM is primarily influenced by audience location, content niche, watch time, advertiser competition, and seasonal trends. Channels targeting US, UK, Canada, and Australia typically generate higher RPM compared to developing markets.
Do creators earn only from AdSense?
No. Many creators generate significant revenue from brand sponsorships, affiliate marketing, memberships, digital products, and merchandise — often exceeding AdSense income.
