WTF I had no idea the CPM had gotten that low. $1 per thousand views for however many ads are in each video is practically nothing.
The more resistant to clicking ads we get the less each ad is worth to the corporate ad buyer and the more ads the services want to jam in to get their profits.
The part I struggle to understand is why corporate ad buyers are okay with the fraud that the big tech companies seemingly routinely get caught on. Famous example being pivot to video on Facebook where they just cooked the books to sell the concept.
1 million users is success.
It also pays bellow the average wage
I mean how many of those ad views translates into someone buying something?
Probably just below the cost to buy a thousand views.
CPM for a STEM video.
