All creators on amy adut sex videoFacebook can now use Meta's professional mode to make some extra cash. 

Meta announced the global expansion of professional modeon Monday, Oct. 31, a product it began testing with select creators nearly a year ago, in December 2021. Now, anyone can use it.

This comes at a time in which Meta appears to be doubling down in its investment in its creator user base — by the end of 2022 it plans to"invest over $1 billion in programs that give creators new ways to earn money for the content they create on Facebook and Instagram." The company might be looking for loyalty as it sets its sights on the metaverse, which is in dire need of creator support. 

What is professional mode?

Professional mode is, in its most basic sense, a page for individual creators. It's similar to making your Instagram account a professional oneinstead of a personal or business account. 

"If you would like to build a public presence to represent your personal brand using your Facebook profile where you connect with friends and family, professional mode is the way to go," Facebook wrote in a blog post. "If you would like to create a public presence for a business, product or for yourself that’s separate from your personal profile, we suggest you create a Page."

Professional mode on Facebook is designed for creators to maintain their personal page while also building a public presence on the app. In line with Pages, this allows creators the ability to build their presence on Facebook with a separate profile. Once you turn professional mode on, you can use more monetization and analytics tools.
