How can I make money from facebook quizzes

5 replies
Hi

I have been toying a bit with facebook application development and im wondering how is it possible to make money from facebook quizzes eg. "what sex in the city star are you?" where you answer a couple of questions and a score that indicates what star you are..

I can only come up with two methods:

1) place some ads in the quiz
2) subscribe the user to some kind some opt-in mailing list and send them product offers etc.. (you can get access to the facebook users email)

Am I missing something ?

Best regards
Rene G

    Hey- I've made money from facebook quizzes (between ~7 and $13 per day). That said, I did actually make a page and briefly promote my quizzes to get them to catch on. (And it sounds like you're on the right track with thinking of using ads to monetize and possibly an email list).

    I did it by building a mobile-responsive site with Adsense responsive ad units. (It needs to be mobile-responsive since most of my clicks came from people using smartphones). It's not terribly difficult to code a simple quiz yourself if you're somewhat familiar with php.

    Build a website, place the quizzes there, direct your ads/posts to your webpage, put ads on website, hope it goes viral.

    Check out http://playbuzz.com. They're blowing up with this stuff, and even allows you to create/embed your own quizzes using their platform.

    Bit of a bump for this thread.

    I've been using quizzes to build email lists. You'd be surprised how many people will hand over an email address to answer a quiz. Only works in some niches though.
