This payment is on a per view basis. YouTube makes money from charges to third parties for advertisements, they are paid between $0.10 and $0.30 for each view an ad gets. YouTube in turn pays 68% of this rate to YouTubers or content creators on its platform through AdSense. ..

How much does Youtube pay per view?
Youtube charges businesses and individuals $0.18 on an average for ads, but they, in turn, pay YouTubers $0.12 which amounts to 68% of the money received.
Some viewers who do not subscribe to Youtube premium or have access to an ad blocker might end up skipping these ads in the first few seconds which do not count as ad views as well. In all, a Youtuber ends up with between $0.003 and $0.005 per view after all these factors are considered. This means that for every 1000 views a Youtuber’s video gets, it translates into between 3 to 5 dollars.
Conclusion
In conclusion, seeing a YouTuber’s large view count does not translate into a large paycheck at the end of the month. There are a lot of surrounding factors that contribute to the rate at which the payment would be. If you are looking to join the YouTubers community and begin to create content, it would be better if you do your research as to how criteria for ad views are converted to payment and also look into other options to earn money with your Youtube Channel.
