tck2000: Advertising revenue companies,firms& individuals promote their products,websites or services on these social media platforms & websites if they reach have a large audience(users) A very good example is nairaland nairaland is up and running from ad revenue ads are everywhere on nairaland facebook you see posts that's says "sponsored" (I always run into jiji &jumia ads on Facebook I am pretty sure you also have too) YouTube 5-30 seconds ads come up before the video you get to the video you want to watch ads are about to be introduced on WhatsApp Google uses AdSense to place ads on website&apps to place their ads that is my contribution below is an example of an advert on nairaland
