Dear Warriors!

I have a hugely engaging Facebook page about my favourite sports team with over 570,000 fans and would like to ask for advice on how to monetize it.

I also own a blog with Adsense and Amazon Affiliate links but the income it is generating is nowhere near what would be expected for a fanbase of that size.

I am about to launch a YouTube channel with daily updates on the team's latest news.

Here are some insights from my Facebook page:

Total Page Likes as of Today: 573,000 -- Note: All the Likes on the page are organic -- I have never paid for fake likes or Facebook ads
319,000 people reached in the last week
51,000 people engaged in the last week

Looking for advice on the most effective to way to generate serious money,

Thanks in advance,

Tom

      I am thinking about joining Max Bounty, does anyone have any good feedback for them or a CPA network better suited for Sports Teams?

        I believe selling T-shirts via teespring will work fine in your niche.

        Maxbounty is very popular and most reputed CPA network. You should definitely try them.

    Why don't you sign up for a cpa network like adworkmedia?

    they are really good and have offers that pay anywhere from $0.50 up to $2.50 for email submit

    i think that's the easiest way to monetize your facebook traffic..

    Find people who want to advertise to your Facebook fans. They will pay you to share their content with your fans.

      Sounds good, but not sure where to start with that! You mean writing to the companies direct, e.g. Nike etc?

    Careful what you post from an affiliate side - if they are email submits chances are they are shit and your fans will figure it out...

    Start to build a newsletter / email list....

    Also SURVEY them and ask them They will tell you - just use a free survey monkey account.

    Cheers

    You can sell like shoutouts
    or
    create a blog with the same theme and post on FB page.
    Blog contains content with adsense, some game app or CPA offers
    Good Luck!

    Sorry to burst everyone's bubble, but CPA offers will destroy your fan base. Don't let them know they are being marketed to. Stick with viral content + native advertising (try adblade) + reddit = $$$.

    Honestly OP, I made 4 digits per day (in the lower end) with native advertising last summer.

    you can try one of the companies that pay you for posting links.
    MyLikes is quite popular, but their rates are not that nice. Nster is a very nice solution like the golden middle. Diply has the best rates but complicated to use
