Frequently asked questions

What is RPM on YouTube?

RPM (Revenue Per Mille) is how much a creator earns per 1,000 video views after YouTube's revenue share. It differs from CPM, which reflects advertiser spend before the platform cut. Dynamoi tracks creator-side RPM across all published markets.

Which country has the highest YouTube RPM?

YouTube AdSense RPM benchmarks span 75 published markets through 2026-10-28. The highest published creator RPMs are in Australia, Denmark, and Norway. A typical published market sits near $1.04 RPM, so the top market is 6.8x higher than the middle of the dataset.

How is RPM different from CPM on YouTube?

Creator RPM is estimated channel revenue per 1,000 total views. Playback CPM is advertiser spend per 1,000 monetized playbacks. Their ratio is not a creator revenue-share percentage.

Does country affect my YouTube RPM?

Yes, significantly. The gap between the highest and lowest published markets is more than 10× — North American and Northern European audiences earn much higher RPM than emerging markets. Dynamoi's table shows the per-country breakdown.

How does Dynamoi collect YouTube RPM data?

These benchmarks describe connected channels, not countrywide rates. Activity, positive-revenue and RPM-to-CPM filters select the published markets and can exclude low-yield markets. Omitted markets do not mean zero earnings. The combined RPM weights published markets by their views.

How many countries does this YouTube RPM dataset cover?

The dataset currently covers 75 published markets, updated through 2026-10-28. Coverage expands as additional channels connect and meet the minimum reporting threshold.
