Well in some cases you don't even need a  website. You can use the social media profile to earn money from various methods too. For examples those who have big Instagram profiles earn big money from shout-outs alone. Sometimes One Shout-out cost about 10,000 usd ! so imagine if they do several of these per week ..

That's so true. I'm living in a small town in South Africa and every one checks Facebook for business. More often than not the business will have a facebook page than a Website - or the Website will be just makeshift referring clients to Facebook. Social media in South Africa is a very powerful force. So many businesses including blogs have been created over the last few years and are thriving at expense of the printed media.
