From views to channel value
Step 1: views generate revenue. Ad revenue = (monthly views / 1,000) x RPM. A channel with 500,000 monthly views at a $10 RPM earns $5,000 a month from ads.
Step 2: revenue sets value. Raising earnings at any step raises the channel's value: improving RPM from $5 to $10 doubles revenue from the same views.
What drives channel value
Creator earnings per 1,000 views after YouTube's 45% share:

| Monthly viewership | More views, more revenue |
| Subscribers | A loyal base keeps views steady |
| Channel maturity and growth | Consistent, growing channels hold value best |
