What It Costs to Add Shares to a YouTube Video

Adding shares to a YouTube video costs about 0.9¢ to 0.85¢ each here, from $8.99 for 1,000 to $84.99 for 10,000. The rate barely changes across the three packs, so each share costs roughly the same whichever you pick. Orders need only the video link, and the count shows in YouTube Studio analytics rather than on the watch page.

1,000 shares for $8.99 is 0.9¢ each; 5,000 for $42.99, the popular size, is 0.86¢; 10,000 for $84.99 is 0.85¢. Per thousand that sits between $8.99 and $8.50, so the pricing is close to linear: let the video's views decide the size rather than the ladder. Of the YouTube counts with a 1,000 pack, only subscribers cost more than shares: 1,000 shares are $8.99, against $7.99 for 1,000 live viewers, $6.99 for 1,000 views and $5.99 for 1,000 likes, and 10,000 shares cost $84.99 where 10,000 views cost $44.99. A share figure far ahead of the like count is the line a sponsor reading your analytics tends to question. The 30-day refill covers a Shares number that reads below what was delivered, checked in Studio since the watch page never shows it, provided the video stays up at the same link, so what you paid per share holds for that month.
