5 Things Highly Successful Influencers do to Earn a Living and to Grow Their Social Presence

Do you have a social presence and have never been able to make any sizable income? We took a look at 1,250 successful influencer accounts over a course of 6 months, and learned what do they do right. In this article, I will share 5 of the most important conclusions I have made from our case-study.

Instagram and TikTok provide their users with an ability to add a single link in their profile. It is called the bio link. Compared to other platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Twitter etc. you only get one link. Maximizing the most out of that link is the main topic of our today’s discussion.

Conclusion #1: You Need a Landing Page

Having a single link is actually a great thing. It serves to focus the entire attention of your user onto one place. Now, we just need to have better control over what the users will see.

Social media expert Gary Vee, uses a single landing page on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok to funnel and introduce his followers to his podcasts, other social media channels and his products. He uses. Linktree for his, which is great, however fairly limited in design.

The key takeaway is that simplicity is key, and this page is a great illustration of how effective a single link can be.

Compare this to an EZBiolinklanding page, that is just as simple, but could show your latest podcast episode, host your links, connections to your social media etc.

Conclusion #2: Create a Distraction-Free Experience

If you have worked to hard to drive a customer to your landing page, why would you want to send them to Spotify or YouTube? Those platforms are designed to capture user’s attention for as long as possible by showing them more podcasts or videos of your competitors.

Embed SoundCloud and Spotify Music

Embed your favorite songs or your own podcast and music on your biolink page, where your fans/followers can enjoy them with a single tap.

Conclusion #3: Content Diversification

If you post all of the same content on all social media pages at the same time, it will not give your audience a reason to follow you on all platforms.

Having a landing page from EZBiolinkgives you a unique opportunity to embed TikTok videos, YouTube, Twitch and Vimeo videos.

With TikTok being on the rise, it is essential to showcase your latest content to crate additional social proof. The organic reach on TikTok is the highest among all platforms at the moment. Many users grow very quickly on TikTok, but it is hard to showcase your impressive size on other platforms.

Why not embed a TikTok video on your landing page to let your YouTube and Instagram followers know that you are a large brand?

Below is an example of what platforms you can embed on EZBiolink.

Embed YouTube, TikTok, Twitch Videos & More

Show off your videos right on your biolink page. Keep user experience distraction-free!

Conclusion #4: Multiple Revenue Streams

All successful influencers in our study leveraged multiple sources of income in their social media profiles. Having a convenient landing page that can accommodate all of that was essential.

Reson #1: Direct linking to affiliate offers is not allowed
Reason #2: One link will not allow to display multiple offers

Below is an example of a TikTok/Instagram page that has made roughly $2,700 per month. It does so by leveraging:

– Affiliate offers from Amazon
– Running a Shopify store
– Monetizing YouTube
– Collecting e-mails for retargeting

This gaming page leverages almost every possible available faucet on the market to generate revenue.

EZBiolink allowed them to embed every one of the above revenue streams onto one dostraction-free landing page.

Conclusion #5: Access to the Landing Page Analytics

Every effective influencer in our case study, took the time to study the audience that visits the landing page. While most of the users don’t pay any attention to analytics, it is absolutely essential to grow and scale your presence/business.

When running the Shopify campaign, all successful influencers linked their Facebook Pixel or their Google Analytics to their landing page, in order to track a similar audience via ADs and scale their sales.

The EZBiolinklanding pages support both Google Analytics code, as well as a Facebook Pixel integration.

In addition, even if you do not use any of the above, you have access to detailed analytics within your EZBiolink page.

Facebook Pixel and Google Ads Integration

Add UTM parameters for link tracking.

Conclusion #6: Final Thoughts

If you had a social media presence on any platform and you did felt like you did not make any income from it, look into starting a landing page to:

– Gain social proof by showing off your other platforms
– Introduce your audience to you other social media platforms
– Show off your YouTube videos, TikTok videos, your Podcast episodes
– Start an e-mail campaign
– Start a Shopify store and use the Facebook pixel to collect data and scale

There are many ways to earn income. This can be automated with a beautiful, affordable landing page, where you you need to worry about is simply posting content and let the traffic convert.

Why Choose EZ Biolink over Linktree for Instagram?

Why Choose EZ Biolink over Linktree for Instagram?

EZ Biolink has always been committed to providing our clients with the best service possible, which is why we know how frustrating it can be when your link is being blocked on Instagram. The spam filter that filters out bad links is not configurable by users and doesn’t limit the number of blocked links. This means that any accounts with more than a certain number of links will have their entire account shut down or deleted after a certain number of blocks.

On top of these disabling restrictions, there are also reports coming in that Instagram has been blocking Linktree’s linking service and its partner programs as well. This is mainly due to a variety of factors, but the main reason is due to these services allowing users to mass-link other accounts. This has been a huge problem with Instagram over the past year, so it’s not surprising that Linktree and Linktree partners are being targeted.

Increased amount of links: There are a few reasons why link spamming has increased recently, but one of the biggest reasons seems to be due to the fact that people have realized that they can use auto-linking software (such as the parent company, Linktree’s technology) in order to rapidly build up an Instagram following. Since Linktree does not allow you to bypass Instagram’s spam filter, it has put the company and its partners at risk.

Linktree’s involvement: A large part of the issue is due to Linktree itself. The fact that Linktree makes linking so easy has made it attractive for spammers, and as a result, this has put Linktree under pressure from Instagram’s spam filter and may eventually cause it to be banned altogether. But what is even more devastating is when users misuse Linktree in order to promote their own accounts. This is because they will often get their friends or family members to open an account with that link attached a post that they want them to see.

“But what if my friend wants to see something?” It is not against Instagram’s terms of service to have someone comment on your post or like it. However, you cannot use Linktree for this purpose because it will be blocked. This is a common trick that spammers use, and now that Linktree is being blocked more often, this strategy isn’t working as well as before.

EZ Biolink: What can I do about it?

The best way to prevent your links from being blocked is by using a different link provider that does not break Instagram’s terms of service. EZ Biolink has a strong understanding of how social media works, and we understand exactly what is going on with Linktree. We have never had an issue with our Instagram accounts being shut down or deleted because of spam filtering and never intend to. If you would like to also learn about how to avoid being blocked on Facebook, check out our article about how not to get blocked on Facebook.

As the leading link building provider, we are always looking for ways to make our service better for both clients and users. In our quest to provide polished linking services, we have decided to offer one of the most important features that Linktree doesn’t offer: an automatic spam filter that removes spam links from the link database without having their Instagram account shut down or be deleted. This will allow more accounts to be added without risking Instagram’s automatic system shutting them down.

We have also decided to take advantage of our extensive experience in link building software and offer custom linking for Instagram. Just like Linktree, we will give you a list of the number of links that should be added during the process. This is very important because an unskilled professional can accidentally open thousands of spam links and damage your account or website. We will also export your link profile into a static HTML file so that you can use it again later.

EZ Biolink is not linked to Google for their analytics, so your information is not shared, not sold to any 3rd party. EZ Biolink is also a professional service with no free plan. That on its own filters out all the spam accounts that automated software can generate on a free plan. You can be assured that your links, your Instagram account will not be blocked. After all, what is the point of using a free service that is going to harm your account? Stop harming your account growth and switch today. It only takes 5 minutes!

How to Monetize Your Social Media Followers

If you’ve ever thought to yourself, “I wish I could monetize my social media followers,” or, “I would make more money if only I had a way of turning my social media followers into an income stream of their own.” Well then have we got the list for you!

In this article we are going to be talking about some ways that people are monetizing their social media following. And trust us… there is no shortage of options out there.

This article is not going to be a guide to setting up a social media page, it’s not going to be an in-depth look at how to set up a Facebook page, and we are certainly not going to talk about how to use Twitter.

Instead, this article is going to focus on ways that you can monetize your online presence using your social media following. We will be looking at ways that people are turning their social media following into an income stream of some kind for themselves.

And, yes, our focus will be on the good old fashioned way of making money in a very old-fashioned manner. You see, creating an income stream from social media is not easy. It doesn’t happen overnight, and it takes time to establish yourself before you can start seeing any real revenue coming in from your social media following. The methods that we are about to talk about will take time and effort in order for them to work.

But there’s no question that you CAN make money doing all of this stuff! There are people out there who have succeeded in monetizing their social media following… and they’ve done by far more than just collecting their own money.

Further, the amount of money that they’ve made available for themselves is massive. So massive in fact, that it’s not something that a lot of people talk about.

Let’s have a look at how some people are turning their social media following into an income stream for themselves, and then let’s see what kinds of income streams can we create.

PART 1 – THE REVENUE SOURCE

TRAFFIC

Continued traffic from your social media followers (or inbound links) can be a great way to make money. But this is only if you are able to sell your products and services to your customers. traffic from your social media followers (or inbound links) can be a great way to make money.

If you can do that, then here’s what you need to do:

Find out what it is that your customers want and start talking about it on your social media platform.

Don’t try and sell them anything just yet… but talk about the things that they want. For example, if they are interested in art – have some artists or artisans submit their work for free or at a discounted rate. If they’re interested in parenting – have parents submit their parenting hacks or tips for solving problems with kids etc.

Remember, you are building an audience for your page. And that audience’s goal is to consume the content that you provide for them. You don’t want your followers to be bombarded with promotional material, but that shouldn’t stop you from mentioning what it is that you sell and, more importantly, why it’s a good buy.

And when people start clicking on your links and buying from you – make sure that they know about it! Because word of mouth can become advertisement in its own right.

There are a lot of different ways to monetize through traffic… we’ll get more into them later in this article.

PART 2 – HOW TO MONETIZE YOUR SOCIAL PRESENCE

CREATE A PRODUCT OR SERVICE

A product or a service is basically something that you can sell to people. It is similar to advertising in that it gives you a way to make money through sales, but it is also similar in that you can work towards bigger and better revenue streams from a service or product.

It can be anything – even a book or any kind of writing project (be careful though! because the US government prohibits self-publishing on social media…). And as mentioned above, we are going to look at promoting products and services on your social media page later in this article.

In order to create a product or service you will need to:

Do your research, identify your target customers and what they want Create a product (in the case of services, this can be you or someone – so this is optional).

CUSTOMERS

The obvious way of making money from social media is to sell products and services to your own customers. This will require the development and promotion of products that you can offer on your page. But because these are your own products, there’s only so much you can do for promotion.The obvious way of making money from social media is to sell products and services to your own customers. This will require the development and promotion of products that you can offer on your page. But because these are your own products, there’s only so much you can do for promotion.

Most people who are selling their own products or services on Facebook don’t rely on traffic alone to generate sales. They’re using a variety of methods to help them make more money from their page.

ADVERTISING or SPONSORED POSTS

This is when you (or a business that you work with) pay to advertise your product or service on accounts like Facebook, YouTube or Twitter. This kind of advertising can be a good way of starting up to promote your business online.

But it doesn’t necessarily have to be just for start-ups. It could also be for established businesses that are having trouble getting the word out about an existing product or service.

Running ads through social media platforms is very flexible in terms of sponsored posts and promotion on the internet. And this means that you can get in front of different audiences based on who they are and what they’re interested in.

SIDE PROJECTS

The last thing I want to mention here is having a side project which either goes on your own website or that you create a separate one for. You could do this if you wanted to make income from recommendations and reviews, or just produce content that people would be willing to pay for… (Please note that the US government does not allow self-publishing on social media, so there would be some extra hurdles with this).

How Does That Work?

…You post something on a social media platform, promoting your service or product. Then (and this is the important part) you ask the audience to follow a link with their email address in the ‘URL’ part.

When they click through and subscribe, you can either ask them to confirm their email address, or you do it automatically.

Once they’re confirmed, you’ll receive an email with all of their contact details. You can then use this information for whatever marketing purposes you want to… (you could even create a mailing list that goes straight into one of these software platforms like MailChimp).

The other option is to ask them to confirm via another social media platform, like Facebook or Twitter.

CONFIRMATION TEMPLATE

If you’re required to provide a confirmation email, use the following email template:

From: [Link To Profile] Subject: Subscriber Registration Confirmation – Hey [Name], I noticed that you followed our website/blog/etc… through one of my social media profiles. You can see this by navigating to MY PAGE > FOLLOWERS. If you’d like to be added as a subscriber, follow this link from your profile and confirm your subscription by clicking the link in the confirmation email that’s sent straight from my account (mine is author at address). If you don’t want to be a subscriber, that’s totally fine. Either way, thanks for following! [Name]

Now obviously there are going to be people who don’t want to subscribe or that won’t confirm their subscription… but let’s look at the other options… because today it is easier than ever before to get your followers interested in what you have to offer.

I hope this gave you a starting point on how to monetize your social presence. Be sure to be creative and explore these and other options to make money on social media.
