    ADs…. businesses pay you to post online advertisements on your site

    Well good luck with that. You have a lot of stiff competition. The way to make money is to come up with a social networking site that hasn’t been created yet and get a lot of exposure. Get the site out there on the internet, and get a lot of people on it and visiting it. Then, you can make money off the advertising. But in order to get people to pay you for their ads, you need to have a solid fan base. No one wants to pay for ads that no one sees.

    Pay-per-click/referral sites offer a small amount for each click of an advertisement. If visitors find the ads interesting, they can click on them and you’ll make a small commission off each click.

    The number of readers & clicks to make this feasible is quite high, though.

    Social media provides an excellent opportunity for freelance bloggers to promote their writing and draw traffic and exposure. Many paid writers assume their job is over as soon as the post is submitted. However, a little bit of extra effort to promote that post with social media could make a world of difference in the success of the post and in the amount or work that you get. Blog owners are paying for results. If you can outperform other freelance bloggers by delivering some extra traffic with social media, your services will be more complete and more effective.

    Hi there -

    I was a Moderator of a newly launch Social Network Site

    We are getting our revenue from the following;

    We have an account for these sites and when our users clicks on ADS, then we earn. The other one is displaying a news on the forum and we earn per view.

    These are things I can share for now.
