Reality check: how much $ to expect from YouTube streams

[Wall_E]

Hey everyone!

I never uploaded my music on YouTube since I’ve always targeted libraries. But now I’d like to try to upload a “music for studying” album (in a single long video) on Youtube.

1) how can I get income from plays? I need to sign these tracks with AdRev right?
2) anyone here with any experience on this subject?

Thanks 🙂

My Pro statements show roughly $80 per 1 Mil streams.

I think it varies. On my statement I show the best YouTube being about $100 per 280,000 streams. Another service I had just under 20,000 streams and got 2 cents.

Putting it in perspective, the top YouTube pages with 40 million views equates to about $14,000 in royalties best case.

…that’s depressing! Maybe I’d better find a new purpose for these tracks…
