YouTube RPM by Country — Complete 2026 Guide
Where your viewers watch from is one of the biggest factors affecting your YouTube earnings. A video watched by someone in Australia earns nearly 10x more than the same video watched from Bangladesh.
Why Does Geography Matter So Much?
YouTube sells ads through an auction system. Advertisers in wealthier countries with higher purchasing power bid more for ad placements. This means:
- A Finance video with USA viewers earns ~$20/1K views
- The same content with Indian viewers earns ~$2.40/1K views
- The multiplier is based on the viewer's location, not the creator's
