Introducing the YouTube Money Calculator — Your Easy Tool to Estimate YouTube Earnings
Are you curious about how much money your YouTube channel can potentially earn? Whether you’re a new creator or a seasoned YouTuber, understanding your channel’s revenue potential is key to planning your growth and setting realistic goals.
Our YouTube Money Calculator helps you estimate your earnings based on your monthly views, your audience’s country, and your content niche. By using industry-standard RPM (Revenue Per Mille) rates, this tool provides an estimate of your daily, monthly, and yearly income in USD.
What is RPM and How Does It Affect Your Earnings?
RPM (Revenue Per Mille) represents the revenue you earn per 1,000 views on your videos. It reflects your actual income after YouTube’s share and includes all revenue sources like ads, memberships, and YouTube Premium.
This differs from CPM (Cost Per Mille), which is the amount advertisers pay per 1,000 ad impressions. Since YouTube takes a cut and not all views show ads, RPM is always lower than CPM but is the figure that truly matters to creators.
