Worked Examples

Example 1: Small Channel

For a channel with:

  • 10,000 average monthly views
  • $5 CPM
  • $200 sponsorship income
  • $50 membership income

Calculation:

(10,000 ÷ 1000) × $5 + $200 + $50 = $500 + $200 + $50 = $750

Estimated monthly earnings: $750

Example 2: Medium Channel

For a channel with:

  • 100,000 average monthly views
  • $10 CPM
  • $1,000 sponsorship income
  • $200 membership income

Calculation:

(100,000 ÷ 1000) × $10 + $1,000 + $200 = $1,000 + $1,000 + $200 = $2,200

Estimated monthly earnings: $2,200

Example 3: Large Channel

For a channel with:

  • 1,000,000 average monthly views
  • $20 CPM
  • $5,000 sponsorship income
  • $1,000 membership income

Calculation:

(1,000,000 ÷ 1000) × $20 + $5,000 + $1,000 = $20,000 + $5,000 + $1,000 = $26,000
