Understanding RPM vs CPM on YouTube
RPM (Revenue Per Mille) is the most important financial metric for creators. Unlike CPM (which measures what advertisers pay before YouTube takes its 45% share), RPM reflects your true net take-home pay per 1,000 views, including AdSense ads, Channel Memberships, Super Chats, and YouTube Premium revenue.
