7 Brilliant Ways to Make Money with Social Media
Today, there are more opportunities than ever to make money with social media and make money online.
You can make money with Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube and other social networks.
Here are 10 ways to make money with social media that you may not have thought of.
1. Promote your own products and services through social media.
Of course, if you have your own products and services, you’ll want to promote them first. And social media is a great way to get exposure to your products.
2. Promote other people’s products as an affiliate.
If you don’t have your own products, become an affiliate and make commissions selling other people’s products.
Even if you have your own products and services, selling related affiliate products to your audience is a great way to make additional money.
Find great affiliate products in your niche. Join their affiliate programs, promote their products on social media, and make commissions when selling them through your links.
Some programs even pay you for clicks and for giving away something for free. Affiliate marketing is one of the most popular ways to make money online.

3. Promote other people’s brands or products.
Brands create campaign briefs indicating what kind of post they are looking for. From a brief, influencers create and submit a post (on Twitter, Facebook or Instragram), set their price and submit it for approval to the brand. If a brand approves it, the influencer can then publish it to their social media and collect payment.
4. Get paid to send other people’s messages to your followers.
Fiverr has many gigs of people who will charge you to send your tweets to their followers.
5. Get paid to set up and manage other people’s social media accounts.
I think that this is one of the best ways to make money from social media. People will pay you good money to set up, manage and build their Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and other accounts.
- Setting up, managing and scheduling Pinterest and Instagram accounts is a big money maker today.

6. Create images for social media
There is a huge need for social media images. And many people make money by creating social images such as Pinterest pins, Instagram images, Twitter images, profile images, Facebook cover design, and more.
Bloggers, affiliates, merchants and anyone promoting on Pinterest want good-looking pins that stand out from other people’s pins. They must have good-looking images to be successful with Pinterest. They typically want to have 3 to 6 to pins for each blog post and there is a huge demand for Pinterest pin designs.
7. Sell social media tools.
There is a lot of software that can help you with your social media promotions.
Social media management tools are very popular. Many social media tools have affiliate programs and will pay you commissions when selling their software through your affiliate link.
For example, I’m using SocialPilot for scheduling my Twitter and Facebook posts. I love the program, became an affiliate after using the program a while and liking it, wrote a review and am promoting it on multiple social media.
