You would come across so many people in the society that have all the required talent for a job but are left unemployed because of unavailability of a valid platform. However, with these amazing social networking sites, it has now become very easy for everyone with certain skill set to earn bread and butter using these applications or social networking sites.
There are many companies that promote their goods and services using these platforms. These companies place their advertisements usually on videos that have more number of views or likes. Image you have an account on any social media application where you regularly share content on any topic. If your content is able to attract social media users in large number, you will definitely be approached by a company for advertisement.
Companies are willing to pay heavy amount of money to place their advertisements of videos that have good number of views. From that, you can easily earn a decent amount of money that might also act like your passive income, if done as part time.

They Keep People Connected
As mentioned above social media applications have been helping people communicate with their friends and family living abroad.

But with these social networking sites, even the busiest person on this planet can entertain himself by watching entertaining or relaxing stuff while doing his work.
It does become sometimes terrible when we speak of social media applications. There are certain fringe elements on these platforms that humiliate or bully people using these digital platforms. It completely depends on our mentality as to what we want to do with these people. Social Media gives us complete freedom to listen what we want to, to watch we want to, and to share what we want to.
Thus when it comes to speaking of bad content on these applications, we have the complete authority to ignore such content and focus on things that good for our health, both physical and mental.
