How much does Sky Guitar make? (estimated)

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, Sky Guitar pulls roughly 261K long-form views a month from recent uploads, which at a typical $1-4 RPM works out to an estimated $261-$1,046 a month in ad revenue (about $3,137-$12,549 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 Sky Guitar make next?

Copy what already works here, not generic advice: lean on the under 5 min format, ship on Thu. The median is the bar - the goal of every upload is to clear 76K views.
