Has social media become a business place rather than just a platform

Social media is the place where people from all over the world are connected to your mobile phones or PCs. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Linkedln, Snapchat, and so on, are primarily social media platforms. These platforms are for connecting to people all over the world and get to know about them by just following the updates. 

Social media has not become a business place rather than just a platform for fun with friends. This is because social media promotes business and their marketing but the connectivity with your friends is the same as previous. Instead, these business marketing ads help us to go through different deals and offers to buy something useful for us. There are many shopping pages on Facebook and Instagram that promotes their business along with the connectivity with friends and people of the same interest. There are many platforms on social media that have only business connectivity with professionals such as Linkedln and some platforms for only fun with friends like Snapchat, tinder, so on.  On Facebook, there are all types of pages like educational, news, sports, food, music, dance, business, and so on but the main aim is to connect people and friends all over the world. So this does not make Facebook or any social networking platform a business place.

Business places like LinkedIn also have connectivity with friends, peoples, clients, and business professionals all over the world. This is also connectivity that keeps people in touch with business needs. So social media is a place to find everything updated with your interests. Fun apps like Snapchat and Tinder are there where people are connected having fun with friends. So it is not true always that social media has become a business place rather than just a platform for fun with friends.
