hi, i have a localised recipe website, with about 12,000 engaged facebook fans, and 1,200 active emails in my mailing list.

so far i've been driving people from facebook and emails to my site, and I barely earn $3 a day from adsense.

Is there other ways of monetizing my base? thanks!

      thanks, is there any other way like ads to monetize? I'm concerned 12k isn't a big enough number to promote a product

        You can also create a blog where there is google adsense in it, and create relevant content to your facebook fans..

    What about trying to sell recipe books from amazon or other products that match the demographics?

    1) Find a product that you can promote to them by e-mail on clickbank

    2)Find someone that is good at product launch by e-mails or do it yourself

    3) Sell them the product and make money

    OR

    1) Create a product they would like to buy

    2) Build a website with a sales funnel with upsells to maximize how much you make...you can promote affiliates offer in the funnel also

    3) Again, use e-mail marketing to promote all of this to them.

    Forget about ads on your website...This is shit. Only people with millions of people going on their websites everyday make money with this. AND, they would make more money if they actually sold something to their traffic instead in most cases. The money is in having a sales funnel that converts well. You need products to sell.

    If you have traffic, the rest is really easy (For someone that knows how to do it).

    I've partnered with a bunch of people over the years, people with traffic but with no idea what to do with it and it works every single time. It really is the way to go.

        Who is your audience? What are they interested in? What are they trying to achieve?

        Selling on the internet is all about Trust..

        You want to have a good relationship with your list. You want to them TRUST YOU, you want them to WANT to buy from you.

        I'm in multiples niches but i'll give you an example:

        Me and a business partner of mine are in the prank niche. The Youtube channel has tons of subscribers and most of them are guys, and some of them are shy guys with social anxiety.

        We then created a program teaching people how to get rid of social anxiety. If we didn't create the program ourselves we could have promoted an affiliate program.

        You get it? Find what your audience want and give it to them.

    If your fans are engaged, as you say, you're not in trouble.
    I would say, there are two ways. Either you create and sell your own product (video, ebook), or you go to Clickbank and sell other people's stuff.
    There are plenty of food products on ClickBank.
    But you better know what your visitors are interested in.

    Have you considered running a poll on your FB page to get your fans engaged and find out what they want? Facebook can show you how to do it.

    1200 people on your email list is a good foundation. Don't lose their trust. Build a relationship with them and start selling something you believe in. Good luck!
