Just wanted to share this story to let everyone know that you never know when something big might happen.
I have a very general/random website with a Facebook page to promote it. I've been doing it for about 2 years and I spend maybe 3-4 hours/week on it. I've monetized it with adsense and an Amazon affiliate account. I've made a several hundred $$ but, if it were deleted, I would not lose any sleep.
Here are some stats of a week ago:
Likes on FB Page: 15,734 Avg FB Post Likes/Shares: 400/500 Avg Post Reach: around 4-5,000 Avg Daily Website Hits: ~250...I only add 2-3 website posts per week so on the days with no posts there isn't much traffic.
It's blog style and I basically post whatever I feel like whether it be an opinion, a list of crazy stories found on here, listicles, whatever.
Along with other FB posts to generate likes, one thing I do is make these stupid short videos, mostly with my dog, and post them on my Facebook page.
The other day, one video must have been shared by a page with millions of followers because I woke up and had about 1,000 new likes and the video had been viewed around 500k.
As of today the video has: 21k comments, 65k Shares and nearly 6 Million views.
My followers have jumped up to just over 42k and I had around 50k hits on my website.
The only downside is every post since the jump has seen only 10% of the interaction they normally do. Not quite sure what's going on but I'm hoping I see 3x the post interaction as I normally do. I guess we'll find out.
