YouTube Money Calculator: Estimate Your Earnings From Views

How much can a channel earn from views? It varies a lot by niche and by where your viewers live. This calculator uses rough earnings-per-1,000-views ranges to show a low and high estimate per month and per year, for long videos and for Shorts.

YouTube earnings estimator

A rough illustration only. Real earnings depend on your audience, ad demand, season and watch time, and you must be in the YouTube Partner Program first. Nothing here is a promise of income.

How to use it

  1. Enter your average views per month.
  2. Choose long videos or Shorts and your niche.
  3. Choose where most viewers are.
  4. Read the low and high range and use it only as a rough guide.

Good to know

These are illustrative ranges, not YouTube data, and real earnings can be lower or higher. You must be accepted into the YouTube Partner Program first, and earnings depend on ad demand, season and how long people watch. Views alone do not promise income.
