We all want more money, regardless of whether or not we need it (note: we need it). And if you’re a lazy SOB, you probably want that money without having to do a lot of work. We don’t blame you — we feel the same way. But unlike all of those times we tried the pyramid schemes while sitting on our couch, there’s now a legitimate way to make this possible: Webfluential.
The new website gives tweeters a rough estimate of how much their 140-character rants are worth through a financial calculator.
According to The Daily Mail, the site can show how much money a user could theoretically earn per tweet as a social influencer.
The South Africa-based company recruits people with a healthy Twitter following, analyses their audience demographics and lets these influencers accept jobs and earn money from their tweets.
The calculator works by using geo-targeting and algorithms to estimate the worth of each tweet within 10 seconds, to show users whether they might make a good influencer.
The company told MailOnline: ‘The calculator looks at competitive pricing for display ads in each location, and then on a similar costing linked to the reach the influencer has and the likely impressions of the tweet – a costing guideline is given from there.
‘The costing estimate is largely based on reach, but once registered as a Webfluential influencer an estimate can be given based on reach, relevance and resonance.’
All you have to do is enter your Twitter handle and out comes your billions… sort of. Here’s a few we tried:
Ok so goals: get a following like Bieber without being a tool and you’re pretty much set for life. Get tweeting.
