How To Squeeze Even More Money From Fanpages!
Flipping Fanpages for Profits
Getting Started
Now before anything else I am not going to bore you with a long winded
introduction on Facebook and how it started. I am sure you will be familiar with
Facebook and its owner Mark Zuckerberg (the former high school nerd) who is a
billionaire, who created the site in 2004.
Now most people you know will be on Facebook. The amount of traffic and
the level of publicity Facebook receives is astonishing. This is why there is a lot
of money to be made from Facebook.
Fanpages
Since the introduction of Fanpages Facebook has changed the way we market our
business online. Facebook Fanpages allow you to market to a certain audience,
anywhere across the world.
In the first section of this guide I am going to focus on creating your first fanpage.
Now to make it easier I am going to be focusing on one specific fanpage
throughout this guide. I will make a Fanpage from scratch and show you exactly
how I monetise it with CPA/Clickbank offers.
I will also show you how to make money by “renting out” Fanpage status
updates to people.
Creating Your First Fanpage
Now before you create your first Fanpage make sure you do a bit of research.
If you read my FREE prequel report on Fanpage Dollars I show you the different
research methods I carry out to see what type of things are “buzz worthy” and
what people are talking about.
In order to create your fanpage simply head over to
http://www.facebook.com/pages/create.php?
Now here we can see we are given two options.
The first option is an “Official Page” and the second option is a “Community
Page”.
If you are going to be creating a fanpage for a business or a brand then you should
be creating an “Official Page”.
4However, if you are going to be targeting a niche market then I would create a
“community page”.
So therefore, for the purposes of this example I am going to create a fanpage on
“Short Emo Hairstyles”.
Now notice the title of my fanpage is going to be something different. It
contains the main keyword but to stand out I am going to call it “I think Short
Emo Hairstyles are Sexy!”
Now according to Google Keyword Tool our keyword generates a lot of searches.
As you can see the keyword “emo short hairstyles” generates just over 40,500
searches per month.
This is a lot of searches for this keyword.
Now I am going to click the “spy glass” link to see what it shows on Google
Insights.
We can see that this niche generates a lot of interest from countries such as UK,
USA and Canada. This is useful because when it comes to CPA offers we can
focus on promoting offers to this market.
Also notice that the top “search terms” are “emo short hair” and “short
emo haircuts”.
Now I am going to head over to Wordtracker and get an estimation on how many
searches there are for this keyword.7
These are the results from Wordtracker Gtrends. We can see that there are a lot
of searches for the keyword “short emo hairstyles” and other related keywords to
this niche.
The next thing I am going to do is head over to Google and see how much
competition there is for this keyword – “short emo hairstyles”.Now we can see that the keyword in quotes (According to Google Keyword tool)
there are just over 18,100 searches.
Now if we head over to Google and type in “short emo hairstyles” in QUOTES we
can see that there are just over 78,000 results (this is excellent news).
Now this is good news because competition is VERY LOW for this keyword.
Now I am going to head over to Instant Domain Search to see if I can snap up
a nice keyword rich domain for this.10
As you can see there are two good keyword rich domains that are available.
I am going to go ahead and register the .org domain name.
So I am going to head over to Namecheap and register the .org.
(.org domain names are just as well ranked on Google as .coms).
Now that I have registered the domain I am going to link it to my webhost
and create a simple Traffic Hub.
A traffic hub is a simple portal (one page) which will act like a landing page to
your Fanpage.Now the first thing I am going to do is install Wordpress on this domain name.
Wordpress can easily be installed using your host through “one click” feature
via the Fantastico link.
I am not going to teach you how to install Wordpress as its pretty easy.
I just like getting straight to the point.
Once you have installed your Wordpress website it should end up look something
like this (see below).
Now at this stage what you need to do is simply add a Facebook “liked” button
so that links to our Facebook fanpage.
Now let’s go back to our Fanpage firstly and create it before we link it to
our website.
Now once you enter the title of your Fanpage (in this case “I think short
Emo Hairstyles Look Sexy” you should see a screen that looks like this.
Now this is the part where you need to edit your Fanpage and fill in the details.I would start off by including an image that relates to this.
Now when it comes to an image please be careful. Do not use an offensive
image or an image that contains the URL of a website. Facebook is strict on
images. However, I have had no problems in using images from Google Images.
Here is the fanpage updated now with an image.
Now the next thing to do is add basic information about your fanpage. Here as
you can see I have added information and have invited people to “share their
pictures of emo hairstyles”.Now as for a URL at this stage I am going to leave it blank.
I will talk more about including a URL, later on in this guide.
For now let’s focus on creating the fanpage.
Now the next thing you need to do is add the “liked page” on our keyword
rich website.
As you can see there is an option on our fanpage that allows us to do this.
Click this button – until you see a screen like this.
As you can see this section allows you to customise the “Like box” button before
you display it on your website. Change the Facebook Page ID code to the unique
number you have for your Fanpage.
So for example, the URL of my “Short Emo Hairstyle” fanpage is
http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/I-think-Short-Emo-Hairstyles-Look-
Sexy/125224834190970?ref=ts
In this case the unique number is the one highlighted in RED.
Once you have finished customising it simply click the “Get Code” button.16
Next you should see two options – Iframe and XFBML. You can use either one.
Once you have selected your code click “Done” and simply paste the code onto
your website.
I chose to paste it after my post on my website (see below).
Now at this stage there are no fans joined to this fanpage.
As you can see I have made sure the title of my post contains the main
keyword and also the short description after the post.
You might want to use a longer description. However, this is just an example.
Now going back to our fanpage there is also an option to link our fanpage to
Twitter so your followers can see your updates.Now before we you start monetising your fanpage in the next section I am going
to talk about how to direct traffic to our Keyword rich Wordpress website so that
you will start appearing on the first page of Google.
This is important before anything else as this website will act as a PORTAL Traffic
Hub for your fanpage and it will also direct people from the search engines to
your fanpage.
Directing Traffic to our Traffic Hub
The next thing to do is direct traffic to our traffic hub website.
Now at this stage having a keyword rich domain is a good idea because when it
comes to outsourcing your SEO then you will have an excellent chance of ranking
on the first page.
When it comes to driving traffic to my traffic hub website I use Article Marketing.
Article marketing directories such as Ezine Articles and Article Base are my
preferred choices.
Article directory sites are always seen as authority sites and people tend to look at
articles as authority articles.
Now going back to our traffic hub website we can see that our main keyword is
“Short Emo hairstyles”.
If I wrote an article on “short emo hairstyles” then I would make sure that I
would do the following.
Keyword in Title – Make sure keyword is in the title of your article (use a
long tailed keyword if you have to).
Keyword Twice in the first paragraph
Keyword once in the article
Keyword twice in the last paragraph or 2.
You can easily outsource your articles by using Elance or Odesk.
A backlink service will also be a good idea because it would increase your
chances of getting your traffic hub portal on the first page.
However, I do not want to bore you on traffic generation methods on this section
because this course is about fanpages and I am going to mainly focus on fanpage
traffic.
The purpose of this section was to show you how you create a Traffic Hub portal
for your Facebook fanpage so you get autopilot traffic from the search engines.
In the next section I am going to go through several detailed traffic generation
techniques to direct traffic to my fanpage.
Traffic Generation Techniques For Fanpages
When most people create a fanpage they are often left to wonder on how to
drive traffic to their fanpage. In this section I am going to show you how I am
going to drive traffic to my brand new fanpage on “short emo hairstyles”.
So just to remind you here is a screenshot of my Fanpage (Before the traffic
generation techniques were applied).
The only “fan” at the moment is me.
Now I am going to start directing traffic to my fanpage.
My favourite traffic generation method is to head over to Fiverr.com and simply
pay for “status updates”.
So let’s go to Fiverr and see what services we can use to buy status updates from
people.The first thing you need to do is click the “Social Marketing” category on
Fiverr and see what kind of services people are offering in relation to
Facebook Fanpages.
We can immediately see that there are several services that you can use
where people are offering Facebook “invites”.
So for example, here is an example of a service that will generate you lots of fans
in a short space of time.22
We can also see that this guy has excellent feedback from people.
In relation to my fanpage – which is about “emo short hairstyles” it is important
you find the right target market. So for example, this guy is a “lead singer” and
there are a lot of people on his list who are into music and are into “emo
hairstyles” – perfect!
The next thing to do is contact this guy in regards to the GIG and place and order.Now once you have ordered a GIG order another GIG - In fact if you are going to
be spending $5.00 on each GIG then I would at least contact 10 Gig owners
(spend $50.00) in getting lots of traffic to your Fanpage.
Here is another Gig I am going to use as this has excellent feedback.
Gigs on the “featured section” on Fiverr tend to generate a lot of views and
also have sellers with a positive feedbackHere is another Gig that is bound to get you a lot of traffic for just $5.00.
And here is another service that I have used to boost my Fanpage traffic.25
This person will invite 15,000 of her friends to your fanpage for just $5.00.
Once you have ordered several Gigs you will simply need to wait whilst traffic to
your fanpage increases.
Usually Fiverr members will update you on the status of your order.
Here is an update on our “Emo Hairstyle Fanpage” from two sellers.26
This seller has provided a screenshot of the Gig I just ordered.
As you can see this seller is also charging $30 for 100k people if I buy the Gig
6 times. This is insane and this can truly make your Fanpage go “viral”.
Let’s take a look at the “proof” shall we?This is the screenshot that I was supplied by this seller. As you can see they have
☺
invited ALL of their 5000+ people onto my Fanpage
I am a happy bunny now because this proof has given me confidence!
Now it has just been 10 minutes and traffic to my Fanpage has already started to
increase.
Here is a screenshot of my fanpage right now (7pm UK British Time).
As you can see “20 people have liked” this already, in such a short space of time.
Fiverr is an excellent resource to buy Fanpage invites and increase traffic to
your Fanpage in a short space of time.
The reason I like Fiverr so much is because you can find quality sellers who will
do the job without a fuss.There are also other ways to increase traffic to your Fanpage.
Tagging and @ Tagging Feature
One way of increasing lots of fans to your Fanpage is the process known as
Facebook “tagging”.
This involves uploading a photo or an image and then simply “tagging people”.
Now I know when I have been “Tagged” on Facebook I always have to see who
tagged me. Curious people are always going to be “curious” about something.
Now you might want to use a creative image. For example, an image that contains
text and a URL link to another website perhaps?
By doing this you will get a lot of people viewing the image.
For example, if you had an Iphone 4 landing page CPA offer then by using
“tagging” people will end up joining the fanpage and clicking on your URL link.
(More on Landing pages later).The @ tagging feature
Another cool feature you can use is called the @ Tagging feature. This
involves posing on your Fanpage wall and tagging another URL link or tagging
another Facebook user.
For example, here is you can see on one of my Fanpages I have tagged my latest
fanpage.
The advantage of this is that your Fanpage will turn into a nice short hyper link
as opposed to a “long winded” link.
The “Suggest Feature”Now traditionally when you create a Fanpage you immediately want to start
inviting all your Facebook friends. Although, this can get you a lot of traffic to
your fanpage in a short space of time you must ask yourself whether this traffic
will be targeted to your fanpage. For example, if your Fanpage is on rap music and
most of your friends are Internet Marketers then it would be no point in inviting
your 5k friends to your “rap music fanpage”.
However, if you want to know how to invite ALL of your Facebook friends to your
fanpage in a short space of time then you simply need the following JavaScript
code.
javascript:elms=document.getElementById('friends').getElementsByT
agName('li');for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] ===
'object'){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}
Simply paste this code at the top of your browser and then simply invite all your
friends.
This will invite all your friends to your fanpage. Of course not everyone will join
your page and they might even delete you, but this is an option
In the next section I am going to discuss how you can use
monetisation techniques to drive hoards of traffic to your fanpage.
These techniques involve adding extra features to your Fanpage.Monetisation Techniques For Your Fanpage
One of the best ways to attract a hoard of traffic to your Fanpages is to monetise
your Fanpage so people can spread the word about it.
In this section I will cover several powerful techniques you can use today for
your fanpages and get more out of them.
I will continue using my “Emo hairstyle” fanpage as an example.
Before anything else I am firstly going to show you how to install the “Static
FBML” application.
This application allows you to add HTML to your fanpage.
Adding this to your fanpage is easy.
Simply head over to
http://www.facebook.com/#!/apps/application.php?id=4949752878&v=wall&ref
=ts and then click “Add to page”.
The next thing to do is click the “Add to Page” button.
You are now ready to add HTML code to your Fanpage!
I have added a special script with this course that you can simply copy and
paste onto your WYSIWYG web editor.
The first thing to do is edit your FBML settings by clicking the edit tab.36
When you click the “edit” link you should see something like this (see below).37
Now this section is very important. Using this application we can create an
attractive landing page with videos and graphics.
Now first things first – if you are not good at graphics you can always outsource
this to someone creative.
I usually hire my personal graphics designer Karl Warren. You can email him at
karlwarren@learnzed.comThe next thing to do is simply open my script (the code) that is attached with
this course and paste it onto your web editor.
I personally use Frontpage but if you want to use a free web editor you can
try http://www.coffeecup.com/html-editor/
WYSIWYG editors will allow you to create your content on your web editor before
you choose to paste it onto your Fanpage.
As you can see this basic code that I have supplied has basic placeholders
where you can include your image and content.
Now using this code and our web editor we can add images and text for our
fanpage.This code is also excellent to add a landing page. So for example, if you have a CPA
offer with an attractive landing page then you can simply plug in the landing page
onto your web editor and hyper link it to your CPA offer.
So for example, here is a US CPA offer on “hair extensions” that I have decided
to add to my Fanpage landing page.
You can also embed Youtube videos to your landing page. Videos make a
big difference in the way people will view your fanpage.
I am going to show you step-by-step on how to do this.
In order to embed a Youtube video on your Facebook fanpage you need
the following code.<fb:swf swfbgcolor="000000" imgstyle="border-width:3px;
border-color:white;"
swfsrc='http://www.youtube.com/v/CUs2Ek8-qng'
imgsrc='http://img.youtube.com/vi/J_CjzJqoYtc/2.jpg'
width='480' height='385' />
Click the image to start the video
I have attached this code also on the download page.
Where it says “SWFSCR” you need to enter your Youtube URL in the
following format.
http://www.Youtube.com/v/YOUTUBE-ID
So for example, here is a video on “Emo Hairstyles”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUs2Ek8-qng
Now notice the CUs2Ek8-qng
This is the bit that you need to enter in the URL Format above.
So our video link becomes
http://www.youtube.com/v/CUs2Ek8-qng
You simply paste the entire above code (below) onto your web editor.
<fb:swf swfbgcolor="000000" imgstyle="border-width:3px;
border-color:white;"
swfsrc='http://www.youtube.com/v/CUs2Ek8-qng'
imgsrc='http://img.youtube.com/vi/J_CjzJqoYtc/2.jpg'
width='480' height='385' />
The image part can be anything you want the image to be.
Once you have pasted this code onto your web editor.
As you can see our fanpage now has video embedded onto it.
Videos make a big difference when it comes to your Fanpage. People are
always attracted to videos online.
You can also add a nice opt in page to your Fanpage.
This is pretty much easy. Simply log in to your Autoresponder and grab the code
and simply paste it into your fanpage html code.Now the advantage of adding an Opt in page to your fanpage will help you build
a list. So for example, if you want to reward your fans by giving them something
for FREE if they join your fanpage you can always grab a cheap PLR report from
http://master-resale-rights.com/index.php and
http://www.masterresalerights.com/ for your niche.
A really cool trick you can use for the “html” part of this method is that you can
create a large .jpg file and store it on a server somewhere and then simply linking
it to on the FMBL application area using just one line of code:
<img src = http://www.yourwebpage.com/image.jpg
You can hire someone to create you a large graphic 760px wide.
Again you can hire Karl Warren from the Warrior Forum to create you a nice
graphic like this.
Here is an example of several such companies that are using this method to get
more people to their page.
Coca Cola
Coca Cola has a very attractive landing page. As you can see they want people to
“Like” the page by including “call to action” text.
Here is the actual link to their fanpage - http://www.facebook.com/cocacola and
you will notice how interactive and funky the experience is for the prospective
user.NYC Quits Smoking
Here is another Facebook fanpage that uses a “call to action” feature.
This fanpage also has lots of useful content and engages an interactive
social element with its fanpage members.This is a prime example of a Fanpage that has good content and has excellent
“call to action” features.
Skittles
Here is another example of a “call to action” fanpage that engages the person
to click the “Like” button at the time.
You can see that the Fanpage is very colourful and has lots of “call to action”
features – such as the “share” button.
Just to summarise to get more out of your fanpage you need to –• Hire a graphics person to create you an attractive landing page with “call
to action” features – such as “liked” text.
• Make your landing page colourful
• Have lots of “call to action” features below the landing page
• Include an opt in page so you can capture leads.
Did you know that there is also a way of getting “non members” of your fanpage
to land on your landing page (with all your “call to action” text) before they can
see anything else?
So for example, if you created a fanpage and start telling your friends about it
then they will see the “welcome page” first and will have to “like” the page in
order to read the wall posts.
There are two main ways to do this.
1. Go back to your fanpage edit page area until you see a screen like this.
Click the “Link to this Tab” until you see a screen that looks like this.This long link takes people to your Welcome page (landing page) directly. So if you
have a URL shortener service such as Tiny URL then you can simply paste this long
link onto your URL short service and after it shortens it people will see the landing
(welcome page) first.
So for example, http://bit.ly/dhkaus will take people to Emo Hairstyle
landing (welcome page).
The second way to do this is to go to your Wall and click on the “settings” tab.
Now NON members of your Fanpage will see your WELCOME PAGE (Landing
page).
So if you want to immediately hit them up with a CPA offer such as a FREE Iphone
offer then NON members will see your landing page immediately. On the landing
page you can have a “call to action” feature such as “Like” this page to win a FREE
Iphone etc.Setting a Nice looking URL for your Fanpages
Now as soon as you create a Facebook fanpage you will be given a long
“ugly looking” URL. Now personally, I would make sure that my URL sounds
professional and is easy to understand. So if you are going to promote your
Fanpage then you need to have a good looking URL people can remember.
So for example, for my Facebook profile if people want to contact me then
they can head over to Facebook.com/ImranNaseem
Now the best way to set your own URL is to head over to
www.facebook.com/username
You should then see a screen that looks like this.
Now as you can see I am going to select a “keyword rich URL” and once you
click “check Availability” you should see that you will be given a few terms and
conditions you must accept.
☺
Next click “Confirm”.
Now your URL is much better and much professional☺
You have to have 25 fans or more in order to get your own username
Update on my Fanpage
Here is an update on my Fanpage that I created from scratch. As you can see I
now have 1000+ fans.
The strategies seem to be working and that means this page will effectively grow
on complete Autopilot.
(I will teach you later on in the report on how to make money from
your Fanpages).
Grow your Fans further by Facebook PPC Ads!
Facebook also allows its users to further increase its fans by the use of Facebook
Ads. Now this is excellent because if you want to target a certain country then you
can make sure you set the ads so that they only show to a certain country. For
example, if you want just want the UK population to view your ad then you would
set your ad to UK people only.
In order to create your campaign you need to click the “promote with an
advert” link.
Once you click this link you will then be taken to the page where you can
customise your ad.
Now as you can see you can choose the body of the text. I usually make it
short and simple and use eye catching words.
I am going to target UK and USA people only.As you can see I am going to target people who like “Rock” and “Emo” stuff in
general.
These categories are perfect and it will reach out over 3 million people on
Facebook!
Now I would keep a daily budget of $5.00 and pay 0.60 per 9,100 impressions.
I prefer to pay per impressions as opposed to paying per click.
Once you have created and customised your ad simply click “create ad” until
you see a screen that looks like this.
Simply click “Place order”.
Your ad should then be live after a few hours.In the next section I am going to show you the type of Fanpages to create for the
right Clickbank/CPA Offer. This section is very important so please make sure you
study this carefully.
Types Of Fanpages To Create And Types Of CPA/Clickbank Offers
Now we come to the section where I am going to show you the type of fan pages
to create and the type of offers to promote.
Creating a fanpage is just the first thing you need to do. You need to make sure
this fanpage is making you money.
Now generally speaking Fanpages that will make you money are ones that will
have a community of “passionate” people who are passionate about something.
An example of a “passionate” group of people is in the Tattoo niche. This is a
huge market and this is a market where individuals can all “share” their tattoos
on your Facebook fanpage.
For example, here are several Facebook Tattoo Fanpages that have lots of fans.
Here is one Tattoo fanpage –created by someone.
There are just over 153,000 fans on this fanpage and it is all full of “passionate”
people who are all passionate about Tattoos.
Now let’s take a look at the landing page of this fanpage to see what this person
is doing to monetise his Fanpage.
Now we can see that if we click on the landing page the text URL directs
the person to another link on the fanpage (see below).
As you can see this person is directing people to his Tattoo website where people
can share their Tattoos with the world.Here is another Tattoo Fanpage that is easily making $200-$500 a day.
This fanpage has just over 481,442 fans at the moment and the first thing you
should notice is that all of these people are passionate about this niche.
Now we can see that the owner of this Facebook fanpage is monetising
and making money by promoting an Affiliate offer.
Now if we click on this affiliate offer we can see that it takes us to the
following landing page (see below).
Now this is a dating Tattoo community who all have the same interest.
They have an affiliate program at https://www.singlescash.com/
Now we can further see that this guy is making a ton of cash by promoting
Clickbank Tattoo Affiliates also.
http://www.facebook.com/tattooworld#!/tattooworld?v=app_23474718566566This guy has spent a lot of time and effort into monetising his Tattoo fanpage and
is therefore, making a lot of money.
Now Clickbank is an excellent marketplace that has lots of different niches
with “passionate” people.
Here are some other examples of niches you can create a Facebook fanpages on.
Weight Loss
Breakdancing (street dancing)
Repairing Xbox 360
Cooking And Recipes
Games
Niche Music
Game Guides
Movies (Watch FREE Movie Online Fanpages are popular – link them
with Clickbank movie products)
Before you create your fanpage for a specific Clickbank offer make sure that the
Clickbank offer you target has a good landing page and it provides you with good
promotion tools.
I like to experiment with different types of niches. Remember the more you
test the more likely you will come across a profitable niche.
CPA offers + Fanpages
Now a lot of people have asked me how you make money from CPA
and Fanpages.
Now this is not difficult at all. All you need is the right CPA offer and the
right Fanpage group who will be willing to complete your CPA offer.
Generally I find that simple email submit offers are very easy to convert. This is
where the user simply enters their email address or zip code.
Here are some examples of CPA offers I have used to make money from.
This is the Iphone 4 offer. The user simply enters their email address and you get
paid just over $1.25.
The key to convert offers like this is to include a “welcome” landing page on your
Facebook fanpage. On the landing page you need to have several “call to action”
features.
As well as including a landing page you also need to make sure on your Fanpage
you include a link to your CPA offer.
So if you was to promote the above Iphone 4 offer I would create a funny CPA
Fanpage but that at the same time relates to the Iphone.
For example, an example of a funny fanpage could be :-
“I hate it when my Iphone battery dies”
“I want to marry my Phone”
“I sleep with my phone next to me”
Fanpages like these will end up getting a lot of visitors mainly because these
are everyday things people do.
So here it the simple process I would follow.
• Create your Fanpage
• Find your CPA Offer – is it international or aimed at US people only?
• Use Fiverr to outsource and buy invites for $5.00
• Use the power of Traffic Hubs – register a good keyword rich domain
• Hire someone to create you a good looking landing page or use the
landing page provided by your CPA Company.
• Make sure you include your CPA Affiliate link on your Facebook fanpage on
your wall as a “status update” and also on the “info” tab so people can see
it.
• Have “call to action” features on your landing page.
Converting high involvement CPA offers
High involvement CPA offers are ones that pay up to $40-$60 for a simple form
submit. Normally these offers require the user to take out a trial offer. Here
are examples of typical CPA high involvement offers.
This offer pays $28.00 for a trial offer. This offer is aimed at people who want
to quit smoking.
A good Facebook fanpage would focus on something along the lines of
helping people quit smoking.
For example, you could create a Facebook fanpage on “I want to quit
smoking but I can’t stop”.
I would then create a landing page (welcome page) and link it to this CPA offer.
You will be surprised as to how quickly Fanpages like these end up growing.
Here is an example of a Facebook Fanpage which fits this category.
As you can see this Fanpage has over 151,000 people.
Notice the title of this fanpage is attention grabbing and funny.
“IF I GET 1,234,567 FANS, MY DAD SAID HE WILL QUIT SMOKING”
You can create a similar fanpage for an entirely different niche and people will
join based on the “quirky” name.However, this user is clearly not taking advantage of the monetisation techniques
and has no affiliate offer on the page. He/she can easily make a ton of cash from
all these fans if they included an affiliate offer.
Remember the key to making money from your CPA offers is to find the right
offer and target the right group of people. It would be no good creating a simple
boring fanpage called “how to lose weight” if there is no real “viral fire” to the
fanpage.
You have to make sure that your Fanpage has a lot of people joining in a short
space of time so that it becomes viral. There has to be a purpose behind the
fanpage.
I have included a FULL list of ideas (see bonus PDF) on the types of “viral” or
“money making” CPA Fan pages you would want to create.
When it comes to including your CPA URL link here is one of my Fanpages that
is making me money and yet there is still no welcome or landing page!
Here is one of my Fanpages which is making me money on complete Autopilot. I
have done no promotion or bought any Facebook invites for this as of now and
yet there are over 4000+ people.
Notice my CPA hyper link on the description page of the fanpage.
I can make even more money from this website by using a welcome landing page.This fanpage is called “how fast can you type” and immediately you can easily use
CPA offers that require the person to fill out a simple form. People will be willing
to do this!
How To Squeeze Even More Money From Fanpages!
In this section I am going to talk about how you can make even more money from
your Fanpages.
One of the best ways to make more money from your Fanpages is to start your
own Fanpage service and target Local business owners.
Now this is very lucrative. With all the techniques you learn from this course you
will be in a position to easily charge thousands of dollars to local business owners.
Let’s face it local business owners are busy people and will not be familiar with
social media. They might have a Facebook account but they will not have the time
to maintain their Fanpage.
Now in one of the videos in this course I talk about how one of my Fanpages is
constantly getting a surge of fans every single day. This Fanpage happens to be in
the Tattoo niche.
Now how many Tattoo parlours are there in your area that you can target?
For example, I just typed in the keyword “Tattooists” on Google and I can already
see several businesses I can target that all have a website but no Fanpage linked
to their website.
For example, here is one website that appears on the first page of Google
that does not have a Fanpage link anywhere on their website.
If you went ahead and contacted this guy over the phone or email you can talk
about the benefits of having his/her own fanpage and the traffic their site will
receive.
However, I personally would target business owners that are already spending
a lot of money on Google Adwords.
For example, let’s say you created a unique fanpage on hairstyles and you
wanted to target Local hair salons.
The first thing you can do is head over to Google and type in “hair salons”.We can see that there are lots of businesses who are spending money on Google
Adwords to get customers to their shop.
As you can see all of these Local business owners are spending money on Google
Adwords.
For example, here is one of the websites spending a lot of money.
http://www.davidpopham.com/index.html78
As you can see this is a pretty basic website. There is no mention of Social
media/fanpage and the owner is simply wasting money.
Now if you want to target a certain category of business then I would suggest first
you create the fanpage, get thousands of fans and then simply offer it to the Local
business owner.
I would create a brand new Facebook account exclusively just for Local
businesses.
Once your fanpage has thousands of people you can simply pick up the phone
and offer the fanpage and charge $997 easily.If you want to create a landing page you can easily outsource this. People on sites
like Odesk and Fiverr can be hired for cheap.
Here are examples of people already targeting business owners with their
own Fanpage creation service.

With your own fanpage service you can offer to : -
• Create the Fanpage for the business from scratch
• Give it a unique name using Facebook.com/USERNAME
• Monetise the fanpage using a special landing page (welcome page)
• Add videos + Content to Fanpage
• Direct traffic to the fanpage by outsourcing
• Use Direct Hubs for the business
• Charge a one off or a monthly fee
• Charge extra to add Autoresponder to the Fanpage
You will be surprised as to the number of business owners who will be inspired
when you show them the different Fanpages on Facebook with “hungry” fans.Remember target the right business category and create the right fanpage!
Flipping Fanpages for Profits
Did you know that you can also flip fanpages or fanpage services and make
even more money?
For example, take a look at this listing from Flippa.
http://flippa.com/auctions/99991/Profitable-Service-Selling-Facebook-
Fans-Invites-and-
Likes%20WEBSITE%20FOR%20FOR%20LOT%20OF%20CASH
As you can see the current bid so far on this service is $20,000!
We can see the website here - http://fansandinvites.com/
This is an example of Facebook fanpage market being very hot and lucrative right
now.
Here is another Facebook service http://flippa.com/auctions/102397/Unique-
Facebook-Service-200Day-No-Reserve getting a lot of attention right now.
These kind of services tend to sell Fanpage invites to people and they are
doing really well as a result of this because there is virtually low competition in
this market.However, you can also buy and sell Fanpages from existing marketplaces online.
This is very profitable and people are already cashing in by flipping fanpages.
Take a look at this website here - http://fanpagecash.org/
These guys offer to buy your fanpage (if it has over 3000+) friends.
You can not only purchase fanpages from this site but also make money
selling them.
These guys act like a broker so if you are interested in buying or selling your
fanpage you need to contact them.
They will also give you a free appraisal for your Fanpage. And remember
creating a fanpage is FREE. All you are paying for is the outsourcing of the
landing pages and the invites.

By the way
Here is a secret …
Why not start your own Fanpage marketplace? Flippa is a place for buying and
selling websites, Ebay is a place for goods and services, so you might want to
start a marketplace where people can simply buy and sell Facebook fanpages.
Just a thought ;)
