Just as any other social network tool, there are users that use them as a means to generate income. There are the general individual users and companies that have a Facebook and Twitter accounts to stay connecting to their followers who are into social media. Recently companies have began to take the visual turn by creating Instagram pages to further advertise their products. Along with companies and the casual users, celebrities may be the most important piece to the social networking puzzle. Lady Gaga has a grand total of 34.5 million twitter followers. Rihanna has over 60 million Facebook friends. With the power to gain followers from all over the country in whatever form that they gained their fame in, celebrities have become a spoke in the social media wheel.
Celebrities are slowly but surely joining Pheed and as the trend has gone over the years, if on celebrity can get attention in one area, there is another celebrity looking to see how they can also join in on the fun. This will only help Pheed in their growth as a social media powerhouse. The unique thing to Pheed is that you can charge a small fee to followers. This will entice celebrities to join the site, bring their followers from other social sites, and charge them to view their post. As they begin to realize that they can get paid to post on a social site verses twitter and Facebook post for free, they will abandon those sites and those sites will slowly crumble….while Pheed will be standing strong
