Making money on Facebook is not a straightforward process, neither is it magic that you can conjure overnight. Although you do not have to invest a single penny, you need to invest your time, diligence and be dogged in trying to earn money.

1. Drive your Facebook page traffic to blogs at a cost

If you have a Facebook page or group with lots of followers, you can easily create traffic for blogs at a cost. You can do this by placing a link to the blog and urging your followers to visit the page. Once they do, traffic increases on the blog, and you get paid.

2. Start Affiliate marketing

When you have many followers on your Facebook page, you can place one or two affiliate marketing links per day on the group. Affiliate marketing works in a way that you get a percentage of the product price. When anybody buys the product through your link, a certain percentage goes to your account.

Some affiliate marketing could see you earn as much as 50% on sales. Examples of businesses to register for are eBay, Commission Junction, Amazon Associate, ClickBank, and Shae a sale.

3. Create a Simple Facebook app

You need not create a complex app to earn money. Just come up with simple fun apps that people would use often. You can make money through adverts or in-app purchases.

4. Start Facebook marketing through influencing and advertisement

The more followers you have, the more businesses and digital marketers would reach out to you for paid adverts. All you have to do is post the product on your page, and start making money. Usually, the more followers or likes on your page, the more money they would offer you.

5. Join Local Buy and Sell Groups

If you’re trying to sell locally, there’s a good chance you probably won’t sell to a friend. That’s why you also need to join your local buy and sell groups. Facebook makes it super easy to sell because you can usually create the post in one group and you have the option to choose other groups before the post goes live

6. Sell on Facebook Marketplace

Don’t forget to sell on the Facebook Marketplace too. The Marketplace is a free-for-all feature where you can buy, sell, or trade almost anything in your local area.

Although it’s not as specialized as local buy and sell groups, everybody has access to the Facebook Marketplace so they can easily share your post with their friends and maybe even find that special something they’ve been looking for.

7. Create Facebook Ads

You can create ads for someone else’s page or for your page.

As a business owner, you can run ads to help grow your business. For this suggestion, you will first need to create a Facebook Page for your business or website. In fact, think of Pages as “Facebook for Business.”

Creating a Page is free and only takes a few minutes and any business or website is eligible.

Once your page is created, you can share posts with your Page followers just like you can write posts on your personal timeline. Facebook Pages are the social media equivalent of having a mailing list

8. Enter Contests

Some companies and blogs run contests and you can earn entries by sharing your link on Facebook or following their Facebook page. You can also join contest and giveaways groups to find the newest opportunities as well.

Many of these contests are free, so the only entry requirement is your time. Every giveaway is different but you might have the chance to win Amazon gift cards, kitchen gadgets, or a new backyard grill set.

9. Invest in Facebook

This is another suggestion that anybody can use to make money with Facebook. And, you don’t even have to create a Facebook account! While you might find this ironic, Facebook is a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq Index.

Facebook’s stock ticker symbol is FB and it can be purchased with any brokerage in your IRA or taxable brokerage account.

As with any stock market investment, Facebook isn’t guaranteed to make you money. Its stock price can fluctuate daily so you should invest and plan to hold long-term to realize a profit.

Thank you for your Valuable Time 💫
