About TickEncounter Resource Center
TickEncounter Resource Center is the YouTube channel of a Rhode Island non-profit tied to URI's Center for Vector-Borne Disease. It posts short educational videos on tick identification, tick removal, Lyme disease transmission, and yard and clothing treatments. Most videos are between 30 seconds and 4 minutes and were produced in a low-budget, on-camera style between 2008 and 2014.
The channel has about 3,500 subscribers and 9.4 million lifetime views. Its audience is estimated, not measured, and is likely made up of people searching for tick removal guidance, parents, dog owners, and outdoor enthusiasts in the Northeast. The median video earns around 10,600 views. Under the Starbooked rate rule for long-form content at $20 to $35 per 1,000 median views, that would be roughly $210 to $370 per video, which is about 2 to 3 times the $10 CPM typical of paid ads.
Brands in tick-control products or outdoor apparel could consider this channel for educational content, but the channel has not published since 2014 and the organization is a non-profit, so the rate figure is theoretical until the channel is active again.
