How to Make Money With Facebook

July 26th, 2011

Traffic is what every internet marketer wants. It is the life blood of the internet business industry, and a topic which you need to address and master if you are to achieve success in your online business venture.


Facebook is one of the most popular websites on the internet with a large percentage of internet users visiting it each and every day. Therefore, it makes sense to use it in your business marketing strategies. However, you need to know how to use Facebook to your best advantage. It should always be born in mind that Facebook is a social media tool and should only be used for advancing relationships with other Facebook users and not to advertise a business. As you increase the number of Facebook relationships so will your business success increase also.


You can start with your Facebook profile and make sure that you upload a picture to your profile – as the name Facebook suggests, it is all about people and they want to see your face! Complete all the sections about basic information, school etc and within the bio section include some keywords related to your business – after all that is what you are about! Make sure to complete the section on likes and interests so that others can connect with you who have similar interests. Be sure to include your website address under the contacts section.


You then need to add friends to your Facebook page – though this must be done within the limits set by the Facebook administrators or you could have your account shut down. Interact with your friends by making comments and sharing videos, posts and quotes intelligently so as to increase your profile and that of your business in a positive way.


You can start a Facebook group of which you will become the administrator and so post material relating to your business to these members. Through postings to your wall, you can effectively add value to the members of your group and other friends but you have to be careful not to spam when your account could be closed. If you have a blog, you can import this content into your Facebook page using an automated system from Facebook.


It is clear therefore that using Facebook to market your business is a good marketing strategy but it has to be done carefully so as to adhere to the Facebook rules and therefore it would be advisable to learn the techniques from an online course such as Hyper FB Traffic.

In 2003, at Harvard University, Facebook was created by Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes whom were all attending the college at the time. The website was created to give people an easy way to stay in contact with friends and family, and also reuniting old friendships that have been lost over the years. Users of the site are able to post images and information about themselves and their current life for others to follow. Generally this information can only be viewed by “friends” or by those people that are within their group or “community.”


Facebook has grown in popularity so much that only Google and Yahoo have more hits a day. The website is easily the most popular social networking site on the internet; sites like MySpace and Twitter don’t even compare with their number of users. The website continues to grow at a rapid rate due to its simplicity and its many features.

Facebook Should Be Paying You!

July 15th, 2011

Facebook is one of the Internet’s most recent and most massive successes. It has leveraged the principle of Network Marketing in its most successful form ever and generated a business that is reputedly worth billions in just a few short years. I argue that the little guy who made them and continue to do so should get a cut of the action. Facebook should be paying you to use its service. Here’s why.


Amid much rumour and controversy it was claimed that Facebook was about to start charging its 350 Million users at the beginning of 2010 for access to its service. As you can imagine, with the number of people potentially affected, such a proposition has stirred up a bit of a hornets’ nest and there is much comment, wailing and gnashing of teeth all over the Internet. The mere mention of this proposition has led to campaigns to boycott Facebook and all other sorts of threats against the company. The company quickly denied all suggestion that it was going to start charging it’s users for the use its service saying ‘Facebook will never charge users and all groups stating otherwise are scams serving other purposes’. Now, that’s as clear as its gets, right? Wrong! In another interview the then Chief Operating Officer for Facebook states ‘The answer is no, we are not planning on charging a basic fee for our basic services.’ Apparently she was not asked about the distinction between basic and premium services in the question; so why the specific answer with the words ‘basic services’ in there? Well the answer is immaterial in any case because Facebook should be paying you! That’s right, Facebook should be paying you for using their service!!!


Think about their business model; they sell advertising on their website based on the content their users add to the site. So they get to target advertising in a very contextual way to users’ needs and many big advertisers pay top dollar for such exposure. So who wins out of the situation? At the moment the users win as they get a great social networking / blogging tool that they can use to stay in touch with way more people than they ordinarily would be able to or even want to, if we are honest. The advertisers get a focussed market to sell their wares to and it’s easy to measure the results because it’s all electronic. Facebook gets a growing business that is reputably worth billions and will in all likelihood sell out to a big fish like Google or Microsoft. It all looks like a win, win, win situation. So let’s look at who does all the work in this menage a trio’s. Facebook no doubt invest heavily in research and development, hardware infrastructure and support services. The advertiser invests their cash to do the advertising and keep Facebook in the style it has become accustomed to. The users, well they put all the content into the system that keeps the whole thing bubbling away and growing. More than that, they also recruit new friends so that the network keeps on growing and growing, making Facebook worth more and more. So, the big question is this; are Facebook users getting enough benefit out of its use or should they be getting paid to use it? After all the users are the content delivery system and the sales team as they drive the growth of new users, and they are honey, or should that be money, pot that attracts the advertisers.


Let’s look at an alternative model that would work just great for all Facebook users everywhere. Some estimates say that Facebook makes about £1 per user per month. I think it will be less in these recessive times so let’s assume that Facebook makes even £0.50p per user per month. Say you join Facebook and for every person you introduce as a friend to Facebook you get paid 1 penny per month for those you introduce and also each friend they introduce down to ten levels deep. On Facebook many people average around 130 friends at their top level and add around 8 friends per month. Let’s be really conservative here and say that you have just 5 friends and each of your friends average 5 other friends each all the way out to ten levels away from you. At this level of networking you have 5 friends, your 5 friends have another five friends making the first level 25 friends in total, the second level 125, the subsequent levels up to level ten are 625, 3125, 15625, 78125, 390,625, 1,953,125 and 9,765,625. Add all these users up and you get a massive 12,207,030 users in the ten levels closest to you, all earning you £0.01. This works out at £122,070.30 per month. This is a very large number and I am certain it would be very difficult to achieve such revenue but such is the principle behind this and many multi level marketing ‘get rich quick’ schemes that you can see it’s easy to sell such fantastic dreams to many people. In fact, as fantastic as it may seem to you, this is exactly how Facebook works and exactly how they make their money on their users. The only problem is that they don’t share any of their revenue with their prize income earners and sales people. So I say, come on Facebook, share and share alike, don’t be greedy and give something back somewhere along the line to the people who made you; your users. Without users you are nothing.
