Content creation started as far back as the seventeen hundred (1700) but the presence of the internet has taken on another face and become a widespread industry. According to Jose Angelo, 2 million blog posts are published every single day and an average content creator in the US earns about $38,965.

The presence of freelance sites and apps now allows content creators and writers to connect with clients from around the world. This means that a Nigerian content creator can work for someone in another country and be paid in that currency. When the exchange rate is added to the mix, it is easy for one to make six figures by fulfilling a single contract. These freelance sites are easy to use and navigate as they cater to the needs of various content creators and clients alike.

As of a recent study, the richest Nigerian content creator is Mark Angel who racks about $326,800 per month. There are others in the content creation industry who make almost double that amount in other countries. This shows that with all intent and purpose, one can become a multi-millionaire by simple reason of content creation.

Content creation is not limited only to creating written content on social media, but also to creating videos, downloadable content and images.

In addition, you do not have to have a specific topic you want to enlighten the public about, simply having a lifestyle you enjoy can rack in the millions. An important example of a content creator that makes money this way is Pewdiepie. Pewdiepie is a YouTube content creator that creates content with just the screen recording of his video games. With this almost unimportant skill, he has managed to rake over 2billion subscribers and still welcomes a growing number to his YouTube channel.

Content creation is a skill that anyone can acquire and it is a sure bet to bringing 6 figures to anyone’s account. This is tied to the fact that you must be willing to expose your life to the world without fear of criticism and you must post consistently. A good camera and background are important too but they come after entertaining content.
