Data source
Public YouTube discovery
Built from publicly available channels and videos matched to this niche.
Confidence
Confidence is highest when a niche has many long-form breakout videos with known subscriber counts. Percentile ranges are precomputed from the analyzed sample; thin niches may show wider ranges or missing percentiles.
  • We take a video's public view count and estimate how much ad revenue it earned, using a typical pay-per-view rate for this niche. The result is a range (low to high).
  • A channel's total estimated earnings are the sum of all its individual video estimates, across the channel's entire history.
  • These estimates assume all views earned ad revenue. In reality many channels have not turned on ads, so real earnings are usually lower.
  • Actual earnings depend on the creator's monetization status, audience location, ad formats, sponsorships, and more.
  • Verified data comes from visible YouTube channel pages and video listings. Estimated data is filled in from related channels when direct info was not available.
  • Data is independently sourced from public information. NoodleTomato is not affiliated with or endorsed by YouTube.
