    sure, there are apps doing 80k/day, have to be careful with the switchoff, if you are offering it for free right now, obviously, ive seen that go not so well

    Most popular facebook applications run ads on the pages in the application, either CPM from a network or you sell the space yourself.

    If you want a good example, look at the Scrabble application - just about everybody I know plays it and it runs two 250x250 ads and a 468x60 ad, and it's probably making a killing.

    Either that or sell the application.

    Just sell 50% of the share to other developer and then redevelop the apps together with the new owner

    Some apps get you to fill out offers to get more features in the app.

    coffee is such a popular product that it finds customers within most social networks. our Flavorbean product is unsaturated in the marketplace and pays recurring. own a piece of each referral for life and stack them up over time. good luck!

    I think we could offer advice on how to monetize it if we knew the subject of the site. I can hardly offer specific advice without knowing the target audience.

    Offer a premium features and use them as points for your app. Users have to pay them to use it, simple. :)

    Not sure I want to sell the app just yet. Its growing nicely with zero promotion. All through invites and facebook directory. I'll listen to offers if someone wants to buy it.

    Not bad. Considered adding CPA offers that give users added benefits when they complete offers?

    On the developer forum some people pay for apps 5-10 cents per user. Or you could try sending out emails with affiliate links to your users.
