YouTube pays creators through the YouTube Partner Program (YPP). Once you are eligible and approved, YouTube places ads on your videos and pays you a share of the ad revenue. Here is exactly how the money flows:
The single biggest factor in your YouTube earnings is your content niche. A Finance channel with 100,000 views can earn 10× more than a Gaming channel with the same views. Here is the full CPM and RPM breakdown by niche:
