FAQ
How do I stay clear of giving financial advice?
Explain how things work rather than what the viewer should do. Use illustrative examples, not personalized recommendations. The channels we track keep a firm line between education and advice.
Is the topic too dry to grow?
Treated as clear, surprising explanation rather than a lecture, it performs well. The finance audience is large and the topics are evergreen, which is why we mark it steady rather than emerging.
Why the high RPM ceiling?
Finance inventory pulls strong advertiser bids. We keep the range conservative because new channels calibrate lower while AdSense learns the inventory.
