making money on social media.

Social networking sites have created many different jobs.

Everyone can find opportunities for earning money on these sites.

For example, if you are an educated person with enough knowledge in a school subject,

you can give online classes from your home by using video chat on Skype.

You don't need any experience in teaching.

Also, if you are a physiotherapist or a life coach,

you can set up a coaching service over Skype.

However, you must first introduce yourself on social media

and impress followers with your knowledge.

You can earn money by uploading videos on YouTube too.

You will get paid for the advertisements at the beginning of your videos.

Many people have become rich and famous with their YouTube videos.

This might not happen to you, but you can make some money

because billions of people view a great number of videos daily.

The important thing is that you mustn't use or copy the videos from other YouTube users

or video sharing sites. They must be original.

Your videos can be about any subject, cooking, yoga, or physical fitness exercises

or your visits to interesting places.

Or you can post funny animal videos.

People will love them.

Especially funny cat videos become popular very fast and spread in just seconds.

You can create your video with a camcorder or a mobile camera.

If you are a creative and skillful person, you can sell your handcrafted items using Instagram.

You can set up an online shop and upload pictures of your items.

You can reach millions of customers this way.

First, you must sign up your shop with a new profile and an impressive name.

Your photos must be high quality and you must upload them one at a time.

Perhaps you won't make huge amounts of money, but many young people live on their earnings

from the sales on Instagram.
