how much youtube paid me with 4000 subscribers after 2 years of monetisation | shorts revenue, CPM
Ғылым және технология
here's how much money i make as a small creator / youtube channel with under 5k subscribers.
chapters down below!
this is how much i made in my first two years of being monetised on youtube as a small creator. i also share how long it took me to get monetised and how much youtube paid me with 4000 subscribers! the numbers will shock you - i have no viral videos and i don't post consistently either. i will be going through my analytics month on month, discussing my RPM and CPM and seeing how these metrics changed throughout the months. i go through how much i make off some of my popular youtube shorts with 200k views. how much do youtube shorts make with 1M views? how much do small youtubers make?
i am a big advocate of pay transparency and i hope this will help any aspiring youtubers in 2024 start their channel. when i first made my channel i was always wondering how much do small youtubers make? what is their CPM based on their niche? but i couldn't find any answers on youtube as most of the videos i watched were from creators with large followings or viral videos... i hope this video answers all your questions :)
chapters if you want to skip through but it would make more sense to watch the entire video!

08:34 2023 by month (youtube shorts being introduced)
13:03 2023 total revenue
13:32 breakdown by CPM - surprising?
13:58 what my YT short with 230k views made me + RPM
15:12 how much my 40k viewed YT short made me + RPM

I second this. Others suggest immediate hockey stick growth (exponential growth) once monetized, but this feels way more realistic for most creators.
Thank you for being honest about how much you made. Subbed.

@@candidlyvivian Agreed. Great video to encourage the journey. Tossing up whether I should make one of these. Think it would have helped me set my expectations straight early on, especially when most people only see videos like Ali Abdaal's as he rocketed to 100k in his first year.
Thanks for sharing! Best of luck for 2024 🙏

how does it work on short videos there is no ads ?
@candidlyvivian

for any short videos under 8 minutes long, you can't add ads throughout the video, so only 1 ad will play at the start / end
hi candidlyvivian, so according to sociablade you make like 300-400 bucks each months now? if its accurate that is :) congratulations anyways!!

Hey Champions, Listen up. Building a KZread channel ain't a walk in the park. It's a battleground, and every challenge you face is just another opponent waiting to be conquered. Remember why you started this channel? That fire, that hunger for success - that's your fuel. Hold onto it like a warrior holding a weapon. Look, setbacks are not stop signs; they're green lights to hit the accelerator harder. Every misstep is an opportunity to dance your way into improvement. Your channel is not just content; it's a war cry, a battle roar in the vast arena of creation. The algorithm of success? Crush it with consistent, relentless uploads. Your story isn't just a video; it's a chapter in the book of inspiration. Don't count the views; make the views count. And when life throws punches, duck, weave, and hit back with a knockout video. In the grand theater of KZread, you're not just a viewer; you're the freaking star of your show. Celebrate every small victory, and let every setback be the fuel that propels you to greatness. This isn't a stroll; it's a relentless march toward victory. When the video gets tough, you get tougher. Channel that aggression, that intensity, and turn it into content that roars like thunder. Your audience isn't just watching; they're standing alongside you in the trenches. Be the leader they're proud to follow. You're not just a creator; you're a creator with a mission. Crush doubts, obliterate challenges, and emerge victorious. Life may be 1080p, but your dreams? They're 4K, baby. Get out there, upload with purpose, and make every video a battle cry. This is your arena, and you're not here to just play. You're here to conquer. Now, go out and dominate. Stay relentless. Stay hungry. Let's conquer the KZread battleground together. SPARTANS!! WHAT is your PROFESSION??!!!
