Updated 2026-05-29

Definition

Revenue per video measures total revenue attributed to a single upload, usually combining platform and off-platform value when available.

Best use

Use it to identify which formats actually earn, especially when a moderate-view video quietly outperforms a viral one in business terms.

Watch out for

This metric is only as good as your attribution model. Keep the definition consistent before comparing one video against another.

Pair with

Pair revenue per video with views, RPM, CTA placement, offer type, and content intent. The goal is to understand whether revenue came from scale, monetisation efficiency, or a strong downstream action.
