This is ad revenue only, spread evenly across views. Real payouts are lumpy: a handful of views from a high-CPM country with a completed pre-roll pay far more than the average view.

What this does

Pick a niche and an audience country tier, and we return the revenue a single view is worth, then scale it up to 1,000, 10,000 and 100,000 views.

A table shows how many views it takes to clear a few round targets: a dollar, a hundred dollars, a thousand, a month of US federal minimum wage.

Use cases
  1. 01See how small one view's worth actually is before assuming a viral clip means real money.
  2. 02Compare the views needed to reach a target across two niches.
  3. 03Set a realistic view target for a specific income goal.
FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is this the same as the Earnings Calculator?

No. The Earnings Calculator estimates a channel's total from an overall view count. This is the inverse: what a single view is worth, and how many you need for a target.

Do I need an account?

No.

Is real revenue actually spread evenly across every view?

No. This treats it as an average. Real payouts are lumpy: a handful of high-CPM views with a completed pre-roll pay far more than the average view shown here.
