Facebook is hugely popular, with more than 500 million registered users, many of whom check their accounts every day. This means that there is significant earning potential through Facebook, as long as you know where to look and are willing to consider a few different options. This article looks at some ways you could make money through Facebook.
Social networking is one of the most popular forms of online activity around. In particular, Facebook and Twitter are really popular and hundreds of millions of people have registered accounts. This makes them a great place to make some extra money, as all you need is an account and something that you can promote for cash. Here are a few options you could consider.
Promote Ads
Promoting adverts on behalf of other people can help you make money through your Twitter or Facebook account. For example, if you sign up with a site such as My Likes, you will be able to request to promote adverts you like the look of. Once you have been approved, you can do this by posting them to your Facebook wall or tweeting about them on Twitter. Whenever one of your friends or followers clicks the link, you get paid for it. It’s important you resist the temptation to click the links yourself, though, as you only get money for ‘valid’ clicks.

Facebook’s recent disclosure that a staggering 500 million Internet users have signed up for its service is a dramatic indication of just how pervasive the adoption of social media services has become these days. From being a somewhat unique network targeted largely at college students and younger audiences, Facebook has quickly grown to become one of the most valuable properties on the Internet with a market value estimated in the tens of billions of dollars. The company is by no means alone. Other social media networks and Web properties such as Myspace, Twitter, YouTube and LinkedIn have also seen remarkable adoption by mainstream Internet and corporate users over the past two years or so. Much of that consumption is being driven by the real-time communications, interactivity and enormous access to new audiences that is enabled by social media. The rapidly growing adoption is driving several trends on the social media front.

Early this year, the worlds largest social network unveiled plans to create its own virtual economy with the launch of Facebook Credits. Now, you cannot use them to buy groceries or a new iPad, but they can come in handy for those who spend a lot of time interacting on the social platform. There are currently more than 200 apps and games that accept this currency, and they can now be obtained from a select few retailers just in time for the holidays. It was recently announced that WalMart and Best Buy would join Target to offer Facebook Credits in their stores, a trend that others are likely to soon follow.
