What YouTube creators should know about RPM, the new metric that tracks how much money they're earning per 1,000 views

to help creators track exactly how much money they are making from the platform.

The new metric is called revenue per mille — mille is Latin for 1,000. RPM is calculated by adding up all revenue reported in YouTube Analytics – like Google-placed ads, YouTube Premium, channel memberships, super chat, and super stickers – and dividing by the total views in the time period. Then YouTube multiplies it by 1,000 and subtracts YouTube's 45% cut.

RPM sits beside YouTube's old central monetization metric, CPM, on a creator's analytics dashboard. CPM, which stands for cost per mille, is the cost advertisers pay per 1,000 YouTube ad views. One crucial difference between RPM and CPM — besides being based primarily on video views versus ad views — is that RPM takes into account the 45% cut of revenue that YouTube takes. So RPM is the revenue rate the creator earns. CPM does not take into account YouTube's cut and is a measure of the total ad revenue earned by both the creator and YouTube.

YouTube's revenue pay-outs are not changing with the new metric. In other words, a creator's paycheck isn't going to look different.
