You can use companies like ClickBank to promote other companies products online, and you get revenue from people who click on click or purchase the product(depending on which company you use). Though if you decide to go down this path, no matter which way you promote your product, through twitter, blogs, or youtube, it is a legal requirement for you to disclose your affiliate relation with the company you are promoting in some fashion. You can even start promoting your own products, depending on the size of your audience; ebooks, music, online courses, etc. Get Creative! Don’t be afraid of putting your own content on the market, but do make sure that it’s quality is genuinely something that you wouldn’t mind buying yourself.

Teaching online through social media

            For those who have a particular skill, or happen to be an expert on a subject, you could consider becoming an online professor or coach. You can find sites such as skill share or many others to develop and sell courses online to these companies. Not only would you be making money, but also toning your professional skills. You could also try coaching through Skype, which is becoming somewhat of a replacement for tutoring, as it is more convenient and easier to do. Although through coaching online, it is important to reasonably price yourself(although many undercut their own services). You can advertise any of these offers or courses through any means of social media, depending on your following.

Youtube partnership program.

If you are a youtuber, with a somewhat large following and you want to start making a little more extra money, try joining the youtube partner program. Youtube is one of the easiest ways to make money online through social media, that is of course if you have a following to support you. You essentially run youtube advertisements, and every time an ad is run, you get a portion of revenue. Though it is important that if you decide to do this, you must stick to the youtube monetization guidelines and keep up to date with them if you want to make an adequate amount of money. There are many popular youtube content creators who have made an exceptionally large amount of money, and many more who have even made youtube a full-time job. But don’t get too excited, because your money revolves mostly around the size of your fan base, and dependent on your video’s relevance you could either gain or lose regular viewers, in turn losing revenue.

These are just a couple of the more common ways to make money through social media. What’s important to take away from this is that there are many, many ways to make money online, and as long as you are being very detail-oriented, actually putting yourself out on the market, and making intelligent economical decisions, making money can be very easy to do.
