  • Creators earn 55% of ad revenue, while YouTube retains 45%.
  • Ads are displayed across your content, including: 🖼️ Display Ads: Shown alongside your videos. 🎥 Skippable Video Ads: Viewers can skip after 5 seconds. ⛔ Non-Skippable Ads: Must-watch ads before or during the video. 🚀 Bumper Ads: Short, 6-second non-skippable ads.

🔸 CPM (Cost Per Mille): Earn per 1,000 ad impressions. Rates range from $1 to $10+, depending on audience and topic. 🔸 CPC (Cost Per Click): Earn when viewers click on ads.

🎯 Advertiser Role

📊 Advertisers bid on ad space via Google AdSense, influenced by:
