The economics of ads views
Every view costs something to deliver. Ad-style placements are the cheapest way to put a video in front of a lot of people quickly, so this option has the lowest price per 1,000 in our catalogue — ₹102.80 today — but it only runs in large blocks (minimum 100). 25,000 ads views cost ₹5,399; 1 lakh cost ₹17,799; 5 lakh cost ₹56,499.
If you need fewer views than the minimum, standard views are cheaper overall even if they cost more per 1,000.
Who this is built for
- Music releases. A new Punjabi or Haryanvi single competes with label releases that open with lakhs of views. An independent artist releasing at 400 views looks unserious next to them.
- Trailers and teasers for regional films and web series, where first-day views get reported in the press.
- Brand videos from businesses running a launch.
- Creators announcing a milestone — a channel trailer or a "1 lakh subscribers" special.
What it does to your analytics
- Traffic source: advertising-type sources rise sharply.
- Average view duration: falls while the campaign runs, because ad viewers watch briefly. This is the trade-off for the price.
- Engagement rate: likes and comments per view drop. Pair a large ads order with likes or comments if the ratio matters for how the video looks.
- Revenue: expect little to none from these views. Don't read your RPM for that week.
Timing a campaign
Place the order the same day you publish, or 2–3 hours after, so the first real visitors see a healthy count. Ads views run fast — about 1M/day — so 1 lakh can complete within a couple of days. For releases with a premiere, start after the premiere ends; premiere chat and live viewers are a different product (premiere views).
Indian vs worldwide
This page's option is worldwide. If you want viewers in India specifically — for a regional release or a brand video aimed at Indian customers — use Indian ads views, which start at ₹298.20 per 1,000 with a minimum of 10,000.
Ordering
Paste the watch link, keep the ads option selected, set at least 100 views and pay from your wallet or by UPI. The order page shows progress and any refund for undelivered views. For a full comparison against normal views read native ads views vs standard views.
Checklist before a big ads order
- Video is public — not unlisted, not scheduled, not private.
- Not set as made for kids. Ad placements don't run on made-for-kids videos, and the order will stall.
- No copyright claim restricting it in India. A claimed music video can be blocked in some countries; the order can't deliver where the video can't play.
- Embedding allowed (Studio → Video details → Show more → Allow embedding). Some placements play the video embedded.
- The video's first frames work without sound. Ad viewers often watch muted; captions on screen keep the few who stay.
If an order can't start because one of these blocks it, it's refunded to your wallet — but you lose time on your release window, so check first.
