Can someone explain CPM?

Say I had a $ 10 CPM. What exactly would that mean?

CPM in this case means Per Calendar Month

YouTube wise cpm is per 1000 views so 10 dollars per 1000 views. PhazerNetwork pay $1.80 per `1000 views on average pretty good rates and an 80% payout plan be sure to check us out for more info: http://www.youtube.com/user/phazernetwork and http://www.youtube.com/phazergames and http://www.youtube.com/user/PhazerAthletics

Technically, your YouTube revenue isn't CPM, it's RPM (revenue per mille). CPM means cost per mille, which is a measure of cost (what advertisers pay to have their ads show on your content).

You yourself as a content creator/broadcaster don't measure income/money coming in cost, you measure it in revenue.

But yes as others have mentioned RPM is your revenue per 1000 impressions (views).

So is the 1000 views base on each video or is it done as a whole by the end of the month
