Facebook, the popular social media platform owned by Meta, made an exciting announcement that Kenyans will have the opportunity to monetize their content starting in June 2024. This news has sparked interest and curiosity among Kenyans, with many wondering how they can take advantage of this opportunity to earn money from their online presence.
One of the key developments that has caught the attention of Kenyans is the green listing of Kenya as one of the countries that qualify for monetization on the Facebook platform. This means that Kenyans now have the potential to earn income through their content, provided they meet certain criteria set out by Meta.
In order to be eligible for monetization on Facebook, there are several requirements that individuals must meet. First and foremost, one must have at least 500 followers on their page for a minimum of 30 consecutive days, in line with Meta’s policies. Additionally, the account must be from an eligible country, with Kenya included in the list of qualifying nations.
Moreover, the content that one intends to monetize must be public, whether it is through Facebook pages, profiles in professional mode, events, or groups. It is also essential to adhere to the community standards set by Meta, which include avoiding hate speech, sexualized content, and inauthentic material.
Furthermore, individuals looking to monetize their content on Facebook must comply with the monetization policies put in place by the platform as part of their business partners program. These policies outline the types of content that are eligible for monetization and those that are prohibited.
Certain content types are not eligible for monetization on the platform, including static videos that consist of a single static image with little to no motion. Similarly, content such as static polls, which are designed solely to engage the audience, and slideshows of images without motion or looped videos are also not allowed for monetization.
In addition, content containing misleading medical information, engagement bait, or focusing on tragedy or conflict will not be monetized on the platform. It is crucial for content creators to familiarize themselves with these guidelines in order to ensure that their content is compliant with Meta’s policies and eligible for monetization.
Overall, the announcement that Kenyans can now monetize their content on Facebook has generated excitement and interest among content creators in the country. By following the criteria and guidelines set out by Meta, individuals can capitalize on this opportunity to earn income from their online presence.
