As the world’s largest social media platform, Facebook offers a wealth of opportunities for creators and businesses to reach their target audience and earn money. However, many users are left wondering how many followers they need to start generating revenue on the platform.
According to Facebook’s monetization policies, the number of followers required to start earning money varies depending on the type of content and the monetization strategy. Here are some general guidelines:
- Facebook’s Partner Monetization Policies require creators to have at least 1,000 followers and 30,000 1-minute views in the past 60 days to be eligible for monetization.
- For Facebook’s Ad Breaks program, creators need to have at least 10,000 followers and 30,000 1-minute views in the past 60 days.
- Facebook’s Affiliate Marketing program requires creators to have a minimum of 1,000 followers and a engagement rate of at least 1%.
It’s worth noting that having a large number of followers is not the only factor in determining monetization eligibility. Facebook also considers engagement rates, content quality, and audience demographics when evaluating creators for monetization.
To increase your chances of getting monetized on Facebook, focus on creating high-quality, engaging content that resonates with your audience. Build a loyal community by interacting with your followers, responding to comments, and sharing user-generated content.
