Get EVERYTHING out of this

SOCIAL NETWORKS

I have a Facebook Page for a popular game where people are requesting help for that game. It's a cross-words game.
I created the page last night, as I was bored... but it EXPLODED! I have 280 likes in less than 24h without promoting it. I didn't even like the page. Today I have created a website that generates words for them based on what letters they have and the word length.
I have already registered the website for Google Adsense, but I don't know if it will be accepted because the website is new and there's only one page that does everything. I've put 2 links on the page, shortened with adf.ly. Even the link to the website is shortened with adf.ly. I got 298 clicks and 0.277$ .... well... not enough.

This is a game trend, so it will not last long, I'm aware of that. So how can I monetize the webpage and website and get everything I can from it?

Not entirely sure what you are doing with adf.ly but beware that it can get your adsense account banned.

  I put 2 adf.ly links on Facebook: one for a tool i found that provides answers for this game (it's in english and most people on my page play the game in another language, so I kind of "fooled" them to click for answers) and another link to the tool I've created for this game in the language that they're playing.
  The website contains no shortened URL.
  
  Thanks

Try getting the maximum number of likes by making other interesting posts before it dies out.. you can monet8ze later, for now scale it up to a max..

  I basically do nothing! They post screenshots of the game and others are helping them. I only share unanswered posts. That's all!
  
  P.S: 292 already!
  
  Thanks

Looks like you've hit onto something there. As you said, this is probably a trend that you are riding on top of, though most people move from game to game.

If you could offer something valuable and drive the new community to a mailing list or website, which offers content related to the game, you could then move onto new trends as your community does as well.

Regarding products, a strategy guide could be a great idea.

If you built up a big enough website, there is probably a lot of app advertisements you could serve as well.

1006 people reached in 22 hours and there are like 24 hours since the page was created! Not everybody hits the like button and I can't reach them later. That's why I need to find a way to monetize it as soon as possible!

P.S: 310 likes

Sorry, but monetizing and selling is not about you. Your customers could care less who you are.

Put yourself in the prospect's shoes and ask "what else could I give that will be perceived as valuable, something worth paying for?"

Prospects want to know "what's in it for me?"

With this new mindset, you will be in a position to earn money by giving the prospects something of worth.

I'm sure you can come up with a good affiliate product of value instead of focusing on "getting everything you can" from this event.

  Woke up to this:
  
  39 hours since launching the website. Woohoo!
  
  @Steve B
  I'm a beginner, I never sold anything. Well, I sold my phone once!
  The thing is I'm a web developer and my experience with sales is limited. I always develop others' ideas and earn them money... but now I see this as an opportunity... I might earn money if I find the right way to do it. Adfly is not the way, I guess... take a look:
  
  Thanks
