Adjust your scenario

Calculate an earnings estimate

We automatically used the public views from videos published in the last 30 days, with a 20% Shorts-share assumption and unknown audience geography. Adjust the inputs below to model a different scenario. Your result is a scenario estimate, not TED's actual income.

Estimated monthly YouTube ad revenue$3,135–$24,029

Range midpoint $13,582

Annual range$37,620–$288,350

Evidence ratingLow · uncalibrated

The midpoint is an arithmetic average, not a most likely outcome. Evidence ratings are uncalibrated heuristics.

Why this estimate?

Each component below comes from the same model that produces your total. Amounts are USD, before expenses and taxes.

Long-form advertising: 3,176,016 views / 1,000 × $1.20–$5.50 × audience multiplier$3,125.20–$23,931.28
Shorts advertising: 794,004 views / 1,000 × $0.015–$0.09 × audience multiplier$9.77–$97.90

Components show cents; the headline rounds to whole dollars. Inspect every model rate and limitation.

Assumptions

Long-form uses $1.20–$5.50 and Shorts $0.015–$0.09 per 1,000 input views before the audience multiplier. These advertising-only assumptions are not YouTube Analytics total RPM.
US audience share is unknown. The low endpoint uses 0.82 and the high endpoint 1.37; no audience location is inferred.
The audience-location input modifies the range; it is not independently verified.
Estimate covers platform advertising only, not sponsors, merchandise, or affiliates.
Actual monetized-view share, niche, seasonality, and YouTube Premium revenue are unknown.
Rates are illustrative model assumptions, not published platform rates or measured benchmarks. Actual revenue can be zero or outside this range.

Scenario estimate—not verified revenue. Sponsorships, merchandise, affiliates, taxes, and expenses are excluded.

Discovery is not certainty. Direct profile links are strong evidence, but SocialRevCounter never claims it found every account. Low-confidence matches stay out of combined totals until the user includes them.

Earnings transparency

What this estimate means

A creator's actual revenue, monthly monetized views, sponsorship contracts, and business expenses are private.

The calculator models advertising revenue from public recent-upload views or the values you enter. It is a planning range, not verified income and not evidence that the channel is monetized.
