The success of social networks on the Internet today is hard to underestimate, it is crazy. Most people around the world have several accounts in a variety of well-known and not-so-famous services. That is why building new networks is an interesting and profitable activity.
Popular social networks
The oldest and first global social system is of course Facebook. In Russia, the analogue of this site can be called Vkontakte. It makes no sense to talk about such giants of the Internet, and the world does not need a third such site.
New social networks include Twitter, a microblogging service with entries in its feed of no more than 140 characters. Also noteworthy is Instagram - a social network of personal photos, in which everything is published, from oneself to one's own things and interesting moments of life. In the USA, the Pinterest network has become very popular, which allows you to add pictures from absolutely any sites with your comments to your albums.
Such openness of people and the desire to share their lives with the whole world speaks of the development of this direction by leaps and bounds, which means that soon there will probably be new sites that will become super popular in a short period of time.
Features of creating a social network
To achieve such success, firstly, you need a brilliant and simple idea that will instantly appeal to a large number of people with proper promotion. But even if you have such an idea, it is probably very difficult to implement it. It should be understood that development will take more than one year, and even if success comes, it will continue throughout the life of the site.
Not every team of programmers is able to cope with such a task. Of course, there are no instructions on how to design social networks. The third serious side of the issue is the amount of money you have. They will be needed to pay for the work of people, for the cost of servers and promotion. If you promise a share of the income of the future site, it will never be, because no one will agree to work for nothing.
There is an assumption that the next social network will be for the mobile Internet from one of the operating system developers. If you decide to tackle such a grand idea, remember that there are far fewer projects that have been completed than there are sites that have been abandoned. That is, in addition to the desire, you must have a core that will make you and your team not quit your job. And separately, you still have to be prepared for failures, after which do not give up and continue working.
Without the skills of running a business, managing people and planning resources, there is nothing to do here either. If Google, with their budgets, has failed to make its Plus network popular, then it will be even more difficult for the average person.
