Who created Facebook?            

 Facebook was created by a great personality Mark Zuckerburg. He was born in 1984. His father Edward Zukerburg was a dentist and mother Karen Kempner was a psychiatrist. So by watching his family’s background. There is not any symbol of programming. But Mark was very interested in programming. When he was small, he used to learn to work on the computer with his father. When he grew up, his interest in using computers was also being developed. So by seeing his son's interest in computers his father taught him all things that he could teach him about computers. And to teach him programming it was very difficult for him. So he manages a private tutor to teach him programming. 

The successful journey of Facebook( Mark Zuckerburg)

When he fully learned to use a computer, he created his own network called Zuck net through which he connected all computers of his house. 

When he went to private schools, he started creating a program on the paintings made by students. He also studied a book named C++ for dummies where he learned about coding from the c language. His interest in programming was developing day by day.

When he went to higher schools, he created his own software which plays a song or music according to the mood of people. That means that software uses artificial intelligence. Many companies offered him to buy that software but he declined their offers. He wants to grow that software.

Later on, he went to Havard University. He spent his 1st year just knowing each other. but in 2nd year, he along with his friends decided to create a dating website but its idea dropped down. Whenever he was free, he began to create another website named Fashmash which takes an image of people side by side and compares that who is attractive among them. But this site was immediately closed within 4 hours of its launch. This site was only opened for the students of Havard University and nearby it. Because this site got more than 100 traffic in just 1hour that its server began to disturb. And there was a lot of violation as people began to compare anyone photos with others that violate the privacy of people. So he was told to stop this site but he didn’t. He wants to develop this site in a new form. And he did too. Fashmash was changed into Facebook. Then he connected all his friends from Harvard University and nearby it on Facebook. He also invests in his pocket to host his site on the server. The CEO of the Washington post helped him with the investment and told him to make that website popular. He got an investment of $500,000 from Peter Thiel who was a co-founder of PayPal. Once he was also offered to sell Facebook for 1.5 billion dollars by Viacom and he was about to sell that but he ignored it. He left the 2nd-year study and went to Cevicon valley. Later on, He allowed his site on a global server. I mean everyone can register on Facebook who has a valid e-mail ID and who is above 13 years.

How does Facebook earn money?

You surely may be wondering, Facebook is a free app and how it is making this kind of revenue. So here is your answer facebook earn money by the following platform:

Advertisement

Yes, Facebook is paid for showing advertisements.

For example, you advertised a car on Facebook. Then that advertisement is mostly shown to one who is interested in that. But how Facebook knows that this person is interested and this not. Are you thinking that?

Then listen to me, Facebook knows all your data. All the things about you are recorded on Facebook like your status, shared photos, comments, and many more. Facebook knows your interest. Many people have attached their bio-data on Facebook. By analyzing these factors, Facebook shows ads on the basis of your hobby, likes, dislikes, etc. 

So, Facebook knows all about you and this is the reason that Facebook brings similar ads on your timeline.and many companies prefer to post their ads on Facebook.

This is how Facebook earns vast amounts of money. Only Facebook knows the idea of targeted ads. So the revenue of Facebook is also increasing yearly.

So, this was the details about Facebook on the basis of my knowledge.

Good luck.
