Introducing Follio, A Social Commerce Platform That Pays You For Being Social
Possibly one of the most popular online activities among Nigerians are social media and blogging.
Thanks to the vast array of free platforms that are available, everybody has an online presence it seems. But while most of us may be socially active as a hobby, some of us have managed to make a killing out of it. Cue Aunty Linda (Ikeji). But what if you had an opportunity to make money for what you love doing like Aunty Linda? Enter Follio.
Follio is a global initiative that rewards users for their social and commercial activities on the platform by sharing a percentage (as much as 50%) of its ad revenue with all users. You get paid for sharing articles, news, opinions, gossip, jokes, product reviews, events and much more. Also, Follio allows users to maximize their social connections by bringing together all their social media contacts on one platform.
How it works
Setting up a Follio account is a breeze. First you have to point your web browser to Follio.me and fill in a sign up from. You will be required to key in a few personal details, including your name, state/country of residence and a little about you.
After that you are asked to select up to 5 areas of interest. This will help Follio connect you with like minds on the platform. Just like Twitter, you can follow other users whom you find interesting. There’s also a newsfeed (or timeline if you prefer), where you can see all the stuff shared by people you follow.
The interface is just as familiar as any other popular social network you already use, complete with status updates, liking and sharing buttons. However, there’s more to Follio than being just another social network
