Creator Split (55%)How YouTube Monetization & RPM Works
CPM vs RPM
**CPM (Cost Per Mille)** is the rate advertisers pay per 1,000 ad impressions. **RPM (Revenue Per Mille)** represents the actual earnings a creator pockets per 1,000 video views. Under YouTube Partner Program guidelines, creators receive **55%** of the gross CPM revenues.
Why Do CPM Rates Vary?
CPM rates depend heavily on channel niches and viewer locations. Financial, tech, and e-commerce niches carry much higher CPMs ($10 - $30+) since high-intent buyers view them, whereas lifestyle and comedy channels average lower CPMs ($2 - $6).
YouTube Partner Requirements
To apply for the YouTube Partner Program (YPP) and start generating AdSense earnings, creators must achieve at least **1,000 subscribers** and **4,000 valid public watch hours** within the last 12 months, or 10 million Shorts views in 90 days.
