1. Ad Revenue (YouTube Partner Program / AdSense)
-
CPM (cost per 1,000 ad impressions) varies a lot:
-
Low niches (entertainment, gaming): $1–$3 per 1,000 views.
-
High niches (finance, tech, business): $10–$20+ per 1,000 views.
-
-
If we take a mid-range $2–$5 per 1,000 views, then:
-
1 million views ≈ $2,000 – $5,000 in ad revenue.
-
2. Memberships / SuperChats / Premium Revenue
-
If only 1% of 5M subs join channel memberships at $5/month:
-
That’s 50,000 members × $5 = $250,000/month before YouTube’s 30% cut.
-
-
Very few creators reach that, but even 0.1% conversion (5,000 people) = $25,000/month.
3. Sponsorships Brand Deals
-
Sponsors usually price based on views per video, not subscribers.
-
Rates often range $10–$50 per 1,000 views depending on niche.
-
For 1M views per video:
-
Sponsorship deal could be $10,000 – $50,000 per video.
-
4. Merchandise / Off-Platform Income
-
Large channels often earn as much (or more) from merch, Patreon, courses, books, etc., than from ads.
-
With 5M subs, even 1% buying $20 merch = $1M gross (not every video, but over time).
Bottom line:
-
1M views = $2k–$5k from ads alone.
-
With sponsorships, that same video could be worth $10k–$50k+.
-
With memberships/merch, earnings can climb far higher.
