Part 5/7:
Breaking down the numbers for January, my channel achieved a revenue per mille (RPM) of $556, generating a total income of $253—down from $375 in December. A more relevant comparison would be between January and November since both months had a similar number of uploads without the holiday advertising boost. In November, I earned $165, showing a positive upward trend in earnings for January.
My long-term strategy for 2024 is to create a new baseline for views and revenue, where I hope to consistently earn between $200 and $250 monthly. Currently, my YouTube earnings are far from life-changing. I'm committed to transparency about my journey, underlining that it is critical for new YouTubers to understand the time and effort needed before seeing substantial income.
