How much money do 10,000 views on YouTube Shorts make?

[Tems]

I’m getting decent views on youtube shorts. So, I’m curious on how much money I should expect from 10k views.

Youtube shorts payment for 10,000 views:

• $0.50 to $1.50 typically
• Sometimes as low as $0.30
• Rarely above $2

Youtube shorts rpm:

• $0.05-0.15 per 1000 views average
• Way lower than long form ($2-5 per 1000 views)

My actual earnings:

• 10k shorts views = $0.80
• 100k shorts views = $8
• 1M shorts views = $80-120

Why youtube shorts pay so little:

• Shorter watch time = fewer ads
• Ad revenue split among many creators
• Youtube still figuring out shorts monetization

Don't expect to make money directly from shorts views

Real value of youtube shorts:

• Grow subscriber count
• Drive traffic to long form videos
• Increase channel visibility

Use shorts to grow, monetize with long form content. Youtube shorts 10000 views makes less than a coffee

10k views on shorts = $1
10k views on long form video = $40-80

Youtube shorts money is terrible

I stopped focusing on shorts and went back to long form. way better income

Shorts are good for:

• Building audience
• Testing content ideas
• Getting discovered

But youtube shorts earnings suck compared to regular videos. Use shorts as funnel to long form, not main content strategy
