Current Facebook Application Earnings

admin — Mon, 18 Jan 2010 02:20:45 +0000

One of the questions that we’re asked pretty frequently goes something along the lines of this: “I know Facebook applications were earning GREAT money when the platform first launched, but are apps still earning good money nowadays, nearly 3 years later?”

The answer is quite simply, yes, they are!

Take a look at some earnings stats from last month, from a single application we run for ourselves:

Not only is this particular application earning easy money from standard banner advertisements, it’s also bringing in revenue from virtual currency, via CPA offers and direct payments. Check out some of the app’s earnings from virtual currency last month:

You may have to zoom in to be able to view that stats, but the bottom line is that this single application earned well over $800 in December 2009, on complete auto-pilot!

Now $800 may not be enough to single-handedly pay all of your bills, but it’s a great start! Of course the idea is to setup many similar applications and get them all earning on similar levels. An extra $800 a month may not be much, but when you have 10 similar apps running, that’s $8,000!

Running multiple applications will not only allow you to drastically increase your passive income, it also makes adding more applications to your arsenal even easier. Whenever you want to add a new app to your network, you can use your existing applications to cross-promote it and quickly reach this level of earning.

Facebook Testing New Feed And Subscription Options

admin — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 19:36:14 +0000

Facebook is now testing a new feature that allows users to choose whether or not to subscribe to Friend’s updates on the Friend Request accept option.

In addition to this option, Facebook is also offering the option to receive updates from certain friends on your mobile phone via SMS text messages, similar to Twitter. Actually, both of these upgrades will make Facebook much more like Twitter.

Historically, Facebook relationships have been mutual, although decreasingly so with all of the privacy settings that have been implemented in the past two years. The recent option to “Hide” certain Friends from your Feed was the last major change of this caliber, although it still entailed adding a Friend mutually and then hiding their posts by clicking them from the Stream.

Gmail Now Require SMS Text Messages To Activate Accounts

admin — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 18:43:05 +0000

Well, it appears the big G has finally done something to take some extra security measures against spammers or abusive users. At some point within the past few days, Google began requiring newly registered accounts to be verified by an SMS text message to your mobile phone. While in theory this should at least make it more difficult for users to register multiple Gmail accounts, (whatever their goal may be…) it is of course not the end of their problems. You may remember Facebook implementing a feature like this within the past 6 months. Orignally FB required all new accounts to be verified via a similar SMS texting system, where the user must input the PIN sent to their phone. This would allow you to post messages, comments, etc without facing the dreaded CAPTCHA. For unknown reasons, shortly after Facebook implemented this feature they changed the way it operated so that IF a user didn’t verify their account via the PIN, then the CAPTCHA protection would cease to show after the account reached a certain age. As far as we could tell, the time when the CAPTCHA disappeared was after about 2 weeks of actively using the account after it was intitially created.

So how could this effect you? Well if you’ve been using Gmail accounts to create multiple accounts on other sites, then it appears you’ll need to find an alternative mail system to use for now… Either that or “borrow” phones from Friends and Family, as Gmail even suggests as an alternative if you do not own mobile phone. The question is: is it worth the extra time and hassle? It may be. We’ve noticed that Gmail accounts seem to carry pretty strong weight where Facebook is concerned. For example, we’ve found that a Facebook account attached to a Gmail account, where the names on BOTH accounts match, and the name is also included IN the email address will have much more initial freedom on the site then, say, an account created from a random domain that Facebook is unfamiliar with. These accounts will also not face the CAPTCHA security with each early post. Of course, if you are posting on Facebook too quickly or too much, you will still receive the blocks and warnings, no matter where your account’s email address is from, or whether you’ve entered the CAPTCHA-removal PIN or not.
