I want to start a YouTube channel and my target is to earn $2000 per month. How many views do I need to generate the income?
If you get 100% traffic from USA, you will need 150,000 to 300,000 views to earn $2000 per month. If most of the traffic is from Africa, India and Pakistan, you will need 800,000 to 1.5 million to make $2000.
The amount you will earn depend on niche, length of the videos, watch hours and geographical location of the traffic.
