How much can you earn from YouTube in Pakistan?
Earnings on YouTube in Pakistan, as elsewhere, depend on several factors, such as the number of views, niche, ad engagement, and monetization methods. Here’s a breakdown of potential earnings and what to expect:
1. Ad Revenue (Google AdSense)
Cost Per Mille (CPM), or the rate per 1,000 views, tends to vary widely. In Pakistan, it can range between $0.50 to $2 per 1,000 views, depending on factors like audience demographics and video content.
Cost Per Click (CPC): YouTube also pays based on clicks on ads. The CPC in Pakistan can be quite low, usually between $0.05 to $0.30, but it varies depending on the industry.
If you have 100,000 views, the average earning could range from $50 to $200, though it’s often on the lower end of this scale.
2. Channel Memberships and Super Chat
YouTube allows channels with a certain subscriber base to offer memberships, which cost viewers a monthly fee. Super Chat lets viewers pay to highlight their comments during live streams.
These can add a few hundred dollars monthly, especially if the channel has an engaged audience.
3. Sponsorships and Brand Deals
Channels with a substantial following can earn through brand sponsorships. A brand might pay between $50 and $500 per sponsored video for channels with a few thousand subscribers, and it can go much higher for larger audiences.
4. Merchandise and Affiliate Marketing
Selling merchandise, using affiliate links, or promoting products can also generate income. Depending on the channel’s reach, this can bring in an additional $50 to $500 per month.
Estimated Monthly Earnings
For a small to mid-sized channel in Pakistan with moderate growth:
Ad revenue: $50–$300
Sponsorships/Brand Deals: $100–$500
Other (Super Chat, Affiliate, Merch): $50–$200
With a well-established channel, earnings can reach $1,000 or more per month, especially if the content appeals to international audiences. However, early-stage channels typically see smaller earnings as they grow their viewer base and engagement.
