Re: YouTube ads. I run a website that is more Vegas focused and I started adding YouTube videos to diversify revenue a couple years ago and drive more traffic to the site. The videos are semi-popular and I seem to get the same type of ads at the vloggers, so this might be good insight. Around Oct-Dec I was getting ~$4/1000, this month is really killing it though
Here are views for just March so far for the top videos
Nice 88 cents per 1,000 views. The one that is .43 got demonitized for some reason. Removing that moves it to 99 cents/1000
Including all the views for march (hundreds of videos) gets to ~$1.12/1000
