Facebook Like and Share Type Websites

Posted By Nick on 17. Jun, 2010

There seems to be a load of new websites popping up that involve a visitor creating “Like” Pages and then it being shared on Facebook by other visitors clicking “Like”.

The reason why these types of websites work really well is simply because they use Facebook to generate traffic, HUGE traffic and its also completely free. To understand this craze a little more i created my very own Facebook Like and Share website to show you the potential. It’s very simple but extremely powerful.

My Facebook Like and Share Website – www.welikethat.com

This website simply involves a user creating a custom message and when “Like It” is pressed the entry is added to the database and displayed on “Recent Likes” page. Any visitors can come to my website, browse messages and if they like it then all they have to do is click “Like” and it will be posted onto their Facebook Page for all their Friends to see (presuming they have a Facebook Account as everyone should do!).

Now thats powerful marketing for free!

I then decided to take my website a step further to stand out amongst the others by introducing an Image and YouTube Video Embed option so a user can simply create a message and if there is a related video for that message then they can enter the YouTube video URL and it will be automatically embedded onto their page. There is also a TinyPic option too so they can include any image hosted on TinyPic by entering the URL.

For Example – David Beckham’s Face at the World Cup

I simply monetize this website with Google Adsense and a few Facebook related Adverts, easy money.

I have a lot more ideas for this website but its only in its Beta Stage for now. Never underestimate the earning potential of using Facebook for your websites.
