Selling Funny Picture Website with 1700 Facebook fans

    Hi,

    I want to sell my funny photo website: freshgags.com.
    The site is auto-updating with photos' from rss feeds of other sites, so you don't need to spend much time on running it.

    I've also build a fun page with over 1700 fans: facebook.com/Freshgags

    The site currently receives 3-5 visitors/day, mostly from Facebook and other social media sites. Because it did not had very much traffic, I did not try to monetize it.

    No, the posts on Facebook are made manually. It does not take much time to make them, just a few minutes a day.
    I don't think it would be a good think to make the posts automatic, because if you make something like 100 posts each day, you will only loose the fans you have.

    Where do you get the pictures from? Are the users on the facebook page active users and comment and like the photos? Looks like your facebook connect plugin is broken as it is off the screen to the left.

    You can get the pics from any site that has a rss feed. Now it gets them from damnlol I think.
    I think most of the pictures I post on facebook, get at least one like, so the fans are pretty active.
    As for the Facebook connect, maybe it depends on the browser you use, on my end it looks ok.

    The watermarking is done automatically, with plugins. All you need to do, to run this site, is to post best pictures to Facebook, from time to time.

    There are many posts that never had a like on Facebook. I only can say maximum 2 likes and usually 1 and none.

    I have a question though, why the number of likes improved rapidly this month while you get 3 - 5 visits a day?

    Thanks

    Until last month, I only shared posts , by only posting the link, from freshgags. The post did not look very good, so that's why those did not got likes.

    From last few weeks I started to post, images on Facebook(this started to get likes, I even had a few people who liked the page), I made this as an experiment, so I did not include a link to freshgags, in the photo comment.
