Facebook: In today's digital era, social media is not only a means of entertainment, but has also become a means of earning for people. Facebook, which is one of the oldest and largest social media platforms in the world, is now giving content creators a great opportunity to earn money. But often people have this question in their mind that how many followers should there be on Facebook, how many views should one get and how does monetization start. Does one start earning money just by having 1000 followers? Let's know in detail.

How does Facebook monetize?

Facebook's monetization system runs under the Meta for Creators program which targets creators who are providing regular content to the audience. Facebook offers a variety of tools for monetization such as in-stream ads (ads that run between videos), fan subscriptions (earning from subscribers), branded content and Facebook Reels bonuses.

You can start earning

If you are a video creator and post regular content on Facebook, then you can start earning from in-stream ads. But for this, some eligibility has to be fulfilled. First of all, your page should have at least 10,000 followers and there should be at least 60,000 minutes of video watch time in the last 60 days. Apart from this, your content must also be in accordance with Facebook's community guidelines and monetization policy.

Will I get money for 1000 followers?

Now the question arises whether you start getting money after getting 1000 followers? The straight answer is no. Facebook does not automatically give you money if you have only 1000 followers. Yes, if your reach is good, views on videos are increasing and you deal with a brand, then you can earn through brand sponsorship. But according to Meta's official monetization policy, features like in-stream ads and bonus programs are available only when your follower count and watch time have crossed their set limit.

Creators can also earn good money through Facebook Reels. Meta has started the "Reels Bonus Program" in which some selected creators are given bonuses every month based on the performance of their reels. For this, Facebook itself invites the creators and it is not necessary that everyone is included in it.

Fan Subscriptions also generate income

Apart from this, charging monthly fees from Fan Subscriptions i.e. subscribers is also another way of earning. If you have a loyal audience, then you can offer them monthly subscription in exchange for exclusive content. Overall, just increasing followers is not enough to earn money on Facebook. It is important that you regularly provide quality content, engage the audience and work according to Facebook policies. If you work hard and with patience, then Facebook can also become a good earning platform for you.
