The amount of money YouTube pays per view varies depending on factors such as viewer location, ad format, viewer engagement, content type, and channel performance. YouTube's payment structure is based on CPM (Cost Per Mille), representing the amount advertisers pay for 1,000 ad impressions on YouTube. On average, creators can expect to earn between $0.01 to $0.03 per view, which equates to $0.25 to $4 per 1,000 views. However, this is a rough estimate, and actual earnings can be higher or lower. It's important to note that this estimate only considers ad revenue and not other income sources like sponsorships or merchandise sales. YouTube's monetization policies and payment rates can also change over time, so it's best to consult the official YouTube Partner Program guidelines for the most accurate information.
