For Finance operators

Finance is the highest-RPM faceless niche. It's also the most regulated.

Personal finance, investing, side hustles — RPM goes $12-40 if you avoid the YPYL trap. YouDark's Ghost Mode is trained on the phrasing that triggers YouTube's "Your Money or Your Life" label.

What to avoid

Specific stock tickers / "guaranteed returns" — YPYL flag, RPM collapse

These rules-of-thumb compound when you ship weekly. YouDark's Weekly Plan generator combines them with your channel's own retention curve, so what wins for you isn't the same as what wins for someone else in the niche.
