Frequently Asked Questions
How do you calculate income per video?
Income per video is calculated by taking your total earnings and dividing by the number of videos you have uploaded. The formula is: (Total Views × RPM) ÷ 1,000 ÷ Number of Videos = Income Per Video. This helps you understand the average revenue each video generates across your channel.
What is the difference between total income and income per video?
Total income is the combined earnings from all your videos based on their total views and your RPM. Income per video divides this total by the number of videos you have, showing the average revenue per video. This metric helps you understand which videos are performing better relative to your average.
How do views per video and RPM affect income per video?
Both factors directly impact income per video. If you have more total views spread across fewer videos, each video generates more income. Similarly, a higher RPM means each 1,000 views generates more revenue. Income per video = (Views Per Video × RPM) ÷ 1,000. To increase income per video, you can either increase views or improve your RPM.
Should I focus on uploading more videos or improving views per video?
This depends on your goals. More videos can increase total channel income by reaching more audiences, but if views are spread thin, income per video drops. Fewer videos with higher views per video may generate higher income per video but lower total income. The best strategy is to create quality content that attracts viewers, then gradually increase upload frequency while maintaining or improving RPM.
How does video quality affect income per video?
Higher quality videos typically attract more views and engagement, leading to higher RPM. This results in both more views per video and better monetization rates, significantly increasing income per video. Quality content also keeps viewers watching longer, allowing more ads to display.
Can income per video help me understand channel health?
Yes! Income per video is a useful metric for channel health. A declining income per video despite consistent uploads may indicate declining views or lower RPM, suggesting you need to improve content quality or audience engagement. An increasing income per video shows your audience is growing and becoming more valuable.
Pro Tips
- • Use this calculator to track your income per video over time. Improving this metric is often more important than total video count.
- • If income per video is low, analyze your top-performing videos to understand what content resonates with your audience.
- • Quality over quantity: A channel with 50 videos at $50/video generates $2,500 total, while 100 videos at $20/video generates $2,000.
- • Focus on increasing RPM by targeting higher-value audiences and niches. This directly boosts income per video without needing more uploads.
- • Compare income per video across different content categories to identify your most profitable video types and focus on those.
- • As your channel grows, income per video often increases due to improved RPM and higher view counts per video from a larger audience.
