"So, say a YouTuber has a million subscribers. And he/she makes 2 videos per week. According to your question, let's assume they have 300,000 active subscribers from their subscriber base. That's a modest assumption, remember.

Now, 52 weeks in a year times 2 videos equals 104. So that's 104 videos per year.

Generally, banner ads pay you 0.8$ per 1000 views and roll out ads pay you 5-8$ for the same number of views.

That makes the total views per year to be around 300,000 active subscribers, times 104, equaling 31.2 million views.

Let's again assume that on average he makes $6 per 1000 views from both the type of ads.

Dividing 31.2 million by 1000 views and multiplying the result with 6$, you get a humble $187,200 per year!"

so the vid above is 158,512,066 views so that's $936,000 for the vid? really?? that's way better than porn
