MONETIZING YOUR FACEBOOK FAN PAGES
One of the easiest ways to make money with your Fan Pages is to find a product you want to promote on one of the marketplaces, such as Click Bank or Amazon. Build your niche Fan Page around the product. But don't jump to do this! Make sure your Fan Page is up and running before you start trying to "sell" to your Fans.
The good way to go is to first offer some free content that is of high quality - maybe a mini-course related to the niche. More people opt-in to a mini-course than to any other kind of free offer. Just make sure it is high quality and relevant to your community.
After your Fan Page has become trusted and popular, you can use a tab to send your Fans directly to an affiliate sales page. It's just like anything else. Once your Fans trust you and believe in you, they are more accepting of the quality products you recommend to them that are relevant to their needs. It's a no brainer!
Remember also to put your affiliate link, where appropriate, into any eBook, mini-course, newsletter, etc. that you give away to your Fans for free.
Another option is to build your list with your Fan Page. If you create a landing page using "Static FBML" (Face Book Markup Language), which is one of the available Applications, you can offer anyone who comes to your Fan Page the chance to sign up for your free mini-course or whatever, for free, without selling anything.
Set up your autoresponder with aweber.com or getresponse.com, add the application "Static FBML" to your Facebook Fan Page, and follow the simple directions.
You can also make money with your Fan Page with your product and with CPA offers. Studies have shown that when people read about your offers on your Fan Page and then easily refer your Fan Page to their friends, their friends are more likely to buy whatever you are offering based on their friends' recommendation.
CONNECTING AND BUILDING A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR FACEBOOK FANS
One good thing about Fan Pages is you can send updates, via email to all of your fans at the same time. Not so with your profile page. So, when you have a special article, or a promotion, or some really great information, you can let all of your fans know. Just don't spam them!
If you have set up your SEO properly - putting you keyword in the title and using it elsewhere on your page - when people search for the keyword they will automatically find you. When they do, make sure they find a well-structured, lively page that gives them more than they expected.
