hey guys im not really expecting to make money on YT but just curiou son my behalf how this works

I found out on average 50,000 views is averaging 50 - 100$

so...what if you have over 400 videos all with about 50,000 views? so you are getting paid per a video? or just on new videos that come out? What about the really old videos (say one you made about 5 years ago) and on average it gets 50,000 views a month still - do they add that as well?

Yes they will still add up views even in old videos

wow nice!!

thought it uses new videos or something - so if you get lets say an avg of 100 bucks for 50k views on 1 video....you essentially make 100 bucks on all 300 - 400 videos if they also hit 50k views every month lol thats pretty crazy.

anyhow thanks for the info nice to know probably wont happen but fun to think about haha!
