Speaking of Social Media …

By Anna on August 18, 2009

And speaking of “Building from Nothing.” We’ve talked about earning money online without a lot of start-up costs, or even without a website. But what about becoming an Internet Superstar without your own computer?

If you ever doubted the power of Social Media as presented in the video in my last post, have a look at this.

The Internet truly is a great equalizer.

50 000 visitors within 3 months is not that bad. My question though is how he will make some money, if this is his purpose. Sure you can get a few hundreds of followers on YouTube, but what then? With that said it’s amazing to see a young kid trying to become famous online without having a computer.

I was speaking more of the power of social media in his little hands, and how he was able to spread his message so far and so fast without even having to own a computer.

I don’t think he was doing this for the money. But if he did want to make money with this at this point, he certainly could!

The point is that it goes to show how much can be done, with so little in terms of resources to start out with.

Another way that you can get thousands of visitors to one of your web pages is by getting on the first page of Digg – if you have your own hosting though it will probably crash your site though unless you have a lot of band width.

Well i think both the things are totally different. I think social media is the only thing through which you can get a chance to connect to the world. Here you can get the lots of services. It is very sad that most of the people think that social media is a chat only.

We’ve comer a long way in 10 years. If a child can get so much eyes on him/her so easily then i can only imagine where social media is heading in the near future.
