    I see you have a link to iammma.net. When I clicked through, all I noticed was a message "coming soon". Why don't you start a blog there and post regular updates. At least with MMA it's not that hard, there are all of these organizations - UFC, Dream, Cage Rage etc. Post daily updates with your own opinions, spark conversations by holding polls and starting controversial blog posts(for example, "Can Fedor beat Velasquez?" or "Brock Lesnar is a pile of s***t"). I guarantee that if you start actually doing something to engage with your fan base you will notice some kind of results.

    And you can monetize your blog easily - Adsense, paid ad banners and spaces, selling MMA fan clothes etc...

    I can't start a blog there because my webdesign team is programming the website ... here's a quick look : http://dev.webdevt1.com/iammma/home.php & http://dev.webdevt1.com/iammma/viewprofile.php.htm#

    which blog is better ? Wordpress ? Should I start one seperate from the website ?

    Yea, Wordpress is arguably the best blogging and CMS platform online. I use it for all my blogs and websites. I don't see why you can't start a blog right now - just create a new folder on a domain (www.iammma.net/blog/ will do just fine), upload the Wordpress script there and start posting updates.

    There are a few dozens of Wordpress plugins designed specifically for placing Google Adsense ads, you can find them easily if you search for "Wordpress Adsense plugins" on Google.

    the problem is that I don't have the "plugins" on the dashboard :S and I read that wordpress does not support plugins anymore :(

    I have set up a quick blogger account though

    LOL? Wordpress not supporting plugins anymore? Are you kidding me? Then how come I still have like 37 active plugins on my numerous Wordpress blogs?

    Don't use blogger, you will most likely get your account banned or blog removed - they just do it, I've had numerous profitable mini-blogs on blogger and they were ALL shut down despite the fact EVERYTHING on them was by the rules.

    I can't see the "Plugins" option on my dashboard ... I browse on the internet and people said that they couldn't see the plugins option on their Wordpress.com blog

    That's because you are using Wordpress.com FREE blog. What I suggested is upload a Wordpress blog to your OWN domain - you can download the script @ Wordpress.org
    Here is a link where someone having an EXACT same problem as you do gets the same answer as I did just now :)

    use the facebook ads and get the word out, you need some momentum before you can really "monetize"

    MMA is a very good niche to have 10,000+ followers. There are a lot of ways you can monetize that, online gambling is one of them - a lot of fans like to gamble on the matches.

    Well, instead of going around looking for a CPA product to market, why not create your own product and market it there?
