Are you a Facebook user ? If yes, then you may
have wondered as to "How does Facebook make
money?" The answer is quite simple quite
simple. Did you ever notice that advertisements
are placed on the side of the page ? These
placed advertisements are known as the
Facebook ads. Big organizations and companies
pay large amount of money for these
advertisements. As it reaches millions of viewers
on Facebook on a daily basis.Currently Facebook
is a free service. Companies can generate huge
sums of money through these advertisements
and hence have kept the services free of cost.
However, there are many rumours doing the
rounds between the Facebook community that
the company is going to start charging people to
use Facebook. As of now, it is just a rumour and
no one from the Facebook corporation has stated
that they plan on charging the users. If Facebook
starts charging users then they are likely to
suffer as people won’t pay up and this would
lead to their downfall.If people have to pay for
the services, less people would log on to the
websites. There would be less people clicking the
advertisements which would ultimately lead in
decreased revenue for Facebook. However, there
is a formation of a Facebook community group
that has petitioned the fact that Facebook may
start charging users to use Facebook.If you're a
Facebook user you may wonder as to why
anyone would be willing to pay for Facebook
advertisements. First, of all it is essential to
have knowledge as to why Facebook
advertisements are very different from Google
advertisements through Google Adsense.
Targeting people that are interested in what they
have to offer is a way Facebook advertisements
give advertisers .The advertisements that are
placed on your Facebook page are based on the
interests that you have listed in your profile. For
example, if you list Rock and Roll as one of your
favorite musics, then you may see an
advertisement on your facebook as to the
availability and the place of purhase of CD, DVD
or even tickets for a concert. Several Facebook
users beleive that this is against their rights
because Facebook is using their personal
information. However, at the same time it is
important to note that it is you who have signed
up for Facebook and it is you who has inputted
your personal information. And in this way you
are actually giving Facebook permission to look
at your personal information. Just think about
it..!!!So if you're going to be forced to look at
advertisements then why not be forced to look
at advertisements that you may be interested in?
Anyways, it’s solely your choice. However, the
Facebook corporation makes money off of the
advertisements that have been placed
throughout their entire social website.
