Okay, so I saw this question floating around: “como puedo ganar dinero viendo netflix” – basically, how can you make money watching Netflix? Sounds like a dream, right? I decided to give it a shot, and here’s how it went down.

My “Get-Rich-Watching-Netflix” Experiment

First, I brainstormed. I mean, Netflix isn’t just going to pay me to binge-watch, obviously. So I needed to figure out some angles.

  • Idea 1: Reviews? I thought, maybe I could write reviews or blog posts about shows.
  • Idea 2: Social Media? Could I become some kind of Netflix influencer… somehow?
  • Idea 3: Some kind of weird app? I am searching the app may pay for watching it.

I started with the review idea. I picked a popular show – let’s just say it involved a lot of dragons – and started watching, taking notes like a madman. I wrote up a review, trying to make it funny and insightful.

Then I posted it on a few blog sites, hoping for some traffic. I also tweeted about it, using all the relevant hashtags. Result? Crickets. Basically, nobody cared.

Next, I tried the social media angle. I started making short video summaries, reacting to shocking moments, that kind of thing. I posted these on TikTok and Instagram. I even tried some live commentary while watching. This got a little more traction, a few likes and comments, but nothing that would pay the bills.

I found the app, and I tried it.I started watching shocking monents. This got little more views and comments, but nothing that would pay the money.

The Reality Check

So, here’s the deal. After a week of trying, I made exactly zero dollars. My grand “get-rich-watching-Netflix” scheme was a bust.

It seems like the only way to make money about Netflix is by becoming a “professional tagger” – someone who watches content and tags it with relevant keywords. Sounds cool, but those jobs are rare.

My takeaway? Enjoy Netflix for what it is – entertainment. Don’t expect to get rich doing it. Maybe I’ll stick to my day job…
