These days it is quite impossible to find someone not using a social media site. Every Tom, Dick, or Harry is using one or multiple social media sites based on their interest. Facebook alone has 1.96 billion daily active users. Youtube’s daily active users stand at 122 million. Daily active users mean users who use the platform at least once a day.

Over 1 billion hours of content is watched on youtube daily, however, only 17 percent of youtube channels are monetized. This indicates that a lot of people are wasting their time on social media.

If you are also wasting your time, you need to start monetizing your social media activities.

If you don’t have a youtube channel, you need to create channel and monetize your youtube channel.

If you are not using facebook marketplace yet, you should start using this feature to sell on facebook.

F you don’t have instagram shop, start building your shop and sell items.

Indeed, every business can benefit from social media exposure, be it small or big, online or traditional. People spend almost all their time there, especially with sites that offer short videos like TikTok, Instagram and YouTube.

Before doing so, it's best to carry out research about what works well on your chosen platform and the type of content your audience prefers. For example, healthcare professionals would like in-depth articles they can read and save, but youths who are students will prefer short and entertaining content. Facebook will be ideal for the first example using a group or page, while TikTok or Instagram would suit the second category better.

Another thing is to do your homework in finding out how to create good content. You may have all the knowledge, tips and tricks up your sleeve, but if you can't communicate it to others in a way they would be hooked, especially on social media where there's something more interesting, you will not have the desired effect.

There are a lot of ways to monetize your social media activities. The most common method is to build followers and start infleucner marketing. However, this is also the hardest way to monetize your social media activities because becoming influencer means you are creating high-quality content and you have a huge following. If this is not possible, you will have to promote products on social sites to make money. However, just because you post your product on Facebook or Instagram does not mean you are selling it. You must either have a large following or spend money on advertisements. No matter in what way you want to monetize your social media activities, you need a huge following in any case. If you cannot build organically, you need to spend money on ads. However, you should always abstain from buying followers because when you do it you are either buying bots or fake followers.
