Frequently asked questions
How much should I charge for YouTube sponsorships?
For a standard 60-90s integration, charge $20-$30 CPM (Cost Per Mille/1,000 views) based on your average views. For a dedicated video review, this rate usually doubles or triples ($50+ CPM).
Should YouTube Shorts cost the same as long-form videos?
No. YouTube Shorts are priced similarly to TikToks and typically command 70-80% less than long-form dedicated content, as the conversion rate is generally lower.
How do I price YouTube channel memberships and community posts?
Community posts are often "thrown in" as value-adds, or charged at 10% of a video rate. Channel memberships are rarely sponsored directly, but "Series Sponsorships" (sponsoring a specific recurring show) are a premium upsell.
