Want to get PAID for using Facebook?

A survey circling around the social network hints at options for 'earning money using your personal presence' on the site.

The list includes a tip jar, branded content and revenue sharing, but sources say these options could only be for verified users if implemented.

The survey was seen by verified user Casey Newton from The Verge, who says it is not clear whether Facebook is considering these options.

DailyMail.com did reach out to Facebook in order to gain more insight about the survey.

'It's still very early, but we're committed to creating sustainable, long-term monetization models for our partners and we're listening to feedback,' a Facebook spokesperson said in an email. 

And the firm has nothing to share on dates or future tests regarding any of the survey information.

Regardless if Facebook is or isn't looking to add these options, the firm is still gathering users' opinions about them.

The 'tip jar' suggests fans could tip you money, 'branded content' would earn you a profit if you post a brand you have a sponsorship arrangement with and 'revenue sharing' could give you a cut of the revenue generated by ads in your post.

The survey also asks about a 'call to action' button that could make it easy to 'Buy Tickets' and a 'sponsor marketplace' where users can match up with advertisers.

As exciting as this idea is, Facebook isn't the first social site to pay users for their content.

YouTube opened this option up to users in 2007 and launched programs to help the creators who started some of the sites most popular channels.

Today, users can earn anywhere from. $80 per 1,000 views monetized by banner ads or $5 to $8 on clips monetized by rollout ads.

On average a video could earn $5,000 to $8,000.

Brands on Instagram are willing to pay particular fees from $45 to $2,300 per image.

Entry-level users with 1,000 followers can earn $4,725 per year if they posted just twice a week. Users on sites like Twitter and Snapchat can get sponsored deals with brands to make a profit.

Although the spokesperson at Facebook did not give a definitive answer about the details of the survey, it could be part of a way to get more people sharing on the site again.

A source close to the social media giant said earlier this month that users are less inclined to reveal intimate details about their lives as their friends list grows.

Reports suggest the social network's 1.6 billion users are instead choosing to use the site to share news and links from other websites. 

The sharing of personal stories dropped 21 per cent year-on-year across the platform, The Information reported, with Facebook saying levels of sharing still remain strong.

It is thought this 'context collapse' is happening because people realize their personal anecdotes and updates may not be relevant to all their followers, collected over the years from different parts of their life.
