Some people do not have skills but yet social media such as Facebook, YouTube and, tiktok are paying them for creating content.
I was thinking that someone needs spectacular skills to earn money online. When I came to #hive, I did not have any skills to earn money on social media. I didn't know how to join words together. I was just writing and in those days, my posts were dried.
I believe when you enter social media, do more research and be consistent and determine you will get it right one day.
On the other hand, there are skills that can make you earn money on social media within a week or a month.
The following are the skills:
Consistent: you may create content for a month and your content may not generate anything, do not panic, continue to make more of it.
My friend continued to make video content for a year, he didn't generate a penny from any of those videos. But, he didn't give up on making quality video content. Despite the energy and resources he put into it, he didn't get anything until 18 months later.
His first payment was $5 and he was happy to get $5. That was the beginning of his breakthrough. Today, creating content on social media is a big time business for him.
Note: this is my advice for newbies on hive, the beginning may not be swift but be consistent in whatever things you are doing in hive. The rewards will surely come. It may look like people do not read your posts or vote your posts, do not give up.
As newbies, don't expect to explore the moment you start hive. It may not be rosy at the beginning but believe me your consistency will reward you later. You are not only going to be rewarded but also know many ways to explore.
I came to hive with zero knowledge of cryptocurrency and blogging, and #play2earn games. I learned cryptocurrency and other important things to generate money online.

Get basic knowledge of interested areas: if you are interested in selling products on Facebook, you need basic skills of how to sell products. It is very important to understand basic knowledge of anything before you subscribe.
Acquiring the basic skills are very simple these days, if you have a Smartphone, you can go to YouTube to learn the skills. You don't need to be a pro before you can sell a product on Facebook.
When I started #hive, I take my time to read hive white paper. The white paper helped me not to plagiarize and made me understand that only quality contents were allowed. I got the basic knowledge of hives.
Bring out your creativity: whatever you are talented at, bring it to social media. If you are talented in singing, bring it to social media; if you can make up stories, bring it to social media; if you are a blogger, bring it to social media; and if you have a skill of graphic design, bring it to social media.
If you don't have a skill, continue to bring in the most interesting thing to social media. If your interest is talking, continue to make videos. That is how a career is built.
One of the social media that likes creativity is #hive.
I stand up for success, and success is not achieved by merely making mouth, No room for laziness, no room for idleness. Success comes to the people who are desperately and consciously searching for it. When it seems unsuccessful or you smell failure around you, never discourage yourself from being successful.
“Discouragement and failure are the two surest stepping stones to success.” - Dale
