In Science ABC's own words
Science gets a bad rep for being boring, difficult and for very smart people (see: nerds). But that doesn't have to be the case.

Science ABC'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, Science ABC pulls roughly 121K long-form views a month from recent uploads, which at a typical $1-4 RPM works out to an estimated $121-$485 a month in ad revenue (about $1,455-$5,820 a year). Treat it as a ballpark, not a payslip - real creator income varies wildly, and this ignores the back catalogue.

What should a channel like Science ABC make next?

Copy what already works here, not generic advice: lean on the 5-10 min format, ship on Tue. The median is the bar - the goal of every upload is to clear 94K views.
