How the company make money?

Twitter generates money mostly from its advertising system, they sell spaces in its platform to advertisers to place the ads, they named it promoted products, promoted tweets, promoted accounts and promoted trends. But other revenue also came from donations, like in the past when they don't even have advertising program.

Twitter the Platform

Twitter will not be forgotten soon, most of Twitter users keep loyal on this platform  because Twitter offer text base unlike Instagram which require at least a photo to make a post. People love twitting, it is much more simple and sometimes resonances to their follower, still covering what most photo based social media can't do. And also you can post photos on Twitter if you want to.

The competitiveness of social media and Tech world in general is really competitive. But twitter with their simple intuitive system making them still in the best social media of choices for many people ranging from common people like us, celebrities to politicians. They love the mini blogging kind of platform, you can only write at max 140 characters per tweet, but it's enough to share your thoughts, activities, information, and any other campaign you are promoting.
