Monetizing Zombies??

by Tim Brendel
12 replies
Hey guys & gals,

A few months ago I took one of the free Facebook Advertising coupons & following the 1-cent FB ads formula I created a FB fanpage and got lots of fans. I made the page purely out of personal interest because I !@#$ing LOVE Zombies!

I tried Amazon affiliate links with t-shirts, got traffic, but not a single person bit. I signed up today for CPALead, so hopefully I will get approved and can start some putting up some quiz's which should generate a little bit of revenue.

Can you think of anything else to monetize without outright selling to the that community? They aren't exactly "blood thirsty" buyers.....Pun Intended!

      Clearly, you're not an authority in this niche, else you would know it's an undead niche.

      Dan's content is irregularly read by handfuls of people. Join the elite few by reading his blog: dcrBlogs.com, following him on Twitter: dcrTweets.com or reading his fiction: dcrWrites.com but NOT by Clicking Here!

      Dan also writes content for hire, but you can't afford him anyway.

    I'd sell stuff about congress, the government and politicians in general. It would be a perfect fit. Blood thirsty vampires would alsp be appropriate for the above mentioned. :rolleyes:

      I saw an iphone app on the BBC a while ago which took your GPS postion and put little red dots around your location (Zombies) and you have to run from them, you look like an idiot running down the street like a crazy man but it looked funny. Might be worth trying to find the app and see if offers affiliate.

        Any chance you can get an affiliate link/sales for zombie video games, movies, etc?

        (My favorite game is Plants vs. Zombies - it has beaten Angry Birds. )

          Zombie books! Definitely the way forward.

          A quick look on Amazon shows "The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead" With almost 700 reviews and in the top 300 bestselling books on the whole of Amazon

          People LOVE zombies. Problem is you would have to sell HIGH volume to really be seeing any decent return.

          However dont think just because you have a list of zombie lovers you have to sell them zombie related products. Create a profile of the average person on your list. Find out what other interest they have and promote!

            Nice, thanks! I'm going to scope Amazon here in a bit and come up with some books and movies to promote.
