CookingwithKarma's estimated YouTube earnings

Nobody outside the channel sees the real figure, and ad revenue is only part of it - sponsorships and merch often dwarf it. But from public view counts, CookingwithKarma pulls roughly 25K long-form views a month, which at a typical $1-4 RPM works out to an estimated $25-$100 a month in ad revenue (about $300-$1K a year). Treat it as a ballpark, not a payslip - real creator income varies wildly.

What should a channel like CookingwithKarma make next?

Copy what already works here, not generic advice: lean on the under 5 min format, ship on Sun, and build titles around its proven words. The median is the bar - the goal of every upload is to clear 7K views.
