Starting a social platform?

Nobody is going to go from Facebook to a platform that looks precisely like Facebook, which is the issue with social media platforms. Do you at least have an alternate design or something that serves the same purpose as TiK ToK if you want to make your own?

Starting a social media platform is not easy; you must have a lot of money before you can do it. I recommend that you look for other ways to make money rather than this one.
 
One thing that we really need to know and understand is that we should not because of rivalry we set up something that is already fulfiling a purpose in the life people,we should be able to come up with something that people are having challanges with.
 
I know this is something that has been tried time and time again but it is always for political reasons.

Has anyone tried to just make a social platform like Facebook or Twitter that offers new or interesting things without making it about politics? Could you actually make one and have it earn money?
Yes, you can make a social platform that's not about politics and make money. You just need to be clear on your target audience, and you need to offer something that fills a need for them. I'll give you an example of a platform that does just that: MuscleMecca . It's an online community for people who are interested in being fit and healthy—and it doesn't get into politics at all!

The key is understanding your target audience, then providing them with the information they want in a way they like. For example, if someone is looking for workout plans, they wouldn't want to go to a site where all the content is text-based—they'd want videos and pictures instead.
 
Creating social media platforms tends to be a very big task. Because one has to spend allot of money before he starts earning money from it as the case maybe.
 
Even if I have to create a social media it won't really be easy for me to start earning with it because Facebook and other social media available will be the ones with the most attention by people. It will be difficult to get people to be interested in your platform.

It's a terrific idea that will shake up the internet media landscape, yet you'll have to think of something utterly unlike what the currently operating giants are doing.

Making money from a social media platform is not an easy thing , even creating one is never easy , getting people to start working and making the traffic is even a huge work to do .
 
I think making a social platform like that of Facebook and others is not the problem but how to get people engaged or traffic to the site is the major problem alot of people are facing now.

The work will be less stressful if you have money to invest like money for advertisement and to engage in a lot of marketing just to create awareness. This will relieve you of the stress.

i think that starting a paid forum is much better than starting a social media platform. Social media platforms attract disrespectful people only. This is not the case with paid forums.

I don't understand the social media you are talking about . you mean social media platforms like Facebook or Instagram ? That required the most money to establish.

Yes, I am talking about such kind of social media websites. Such kind of social media platforms usually allow offensive content and this could make people uncomfortable.

That's exactly what the poster was talking about , social platform like Facebook and Twitter , there was a social platform like that created by a nigerian (Nairaland ) and its still very much functioning .

Nairaland is a popular news platform. you can also call it a social media since it gives people opportunity to interact and raise their point of view on topic being discussed. Nairaland is one of my favourite platform.
 
I can tell you for sure that it is not going to be an easy thing starting a social media network. It is going to take a lot of time and you will need to hire a lot of employees to keep it up.
 
I do not think it is ever going to be easy for someone to start a social media platform that would stand the test of time

We already have tiktok, Facebook, WhatsApp Instagram and Twitter.
 
I would be lying if I said I haven't thought about creating my own social media platform that was solely for keeping in contact with friends and family or even just so you could use it for your business and to help promote your business or even promote your business or make connections regarding your business. Unfortunately, due to a lack of funds and knowledge or where to start with a social media platform, it's never been something I have ever tried. I feel though that even now if we were to try and create a new social media platform, it would be really difficult for us to get users of say Facebook and Twitter to want to move over as I feel they are now so set in their ways and so used to the platforms that are out that making a change would be something they would rather avoid. Not going to lie though, I would love to be able to have a social media platform that had fewer politics.
 
Starting a social media platform is actually beautiful and incredible but you must have to have a lot of money in order to complete this. You are also going to be required to Ido a lot of licensing and registration.

I must say that starting a social media platform might not be that easy. this is because it requires you to invest funds and create a real company like Google to start a social media platform. This requires a lots of capital.
