Three weeks ago I launched my second site - FIFA 2008 News. It has the latest news about EA Sports’ coming FIFA Soccer 2008 featuring interviews, screen shots, trailers and demos and press releases directly from EA Sports’ Press Room.
It all started out with an article I wrote for Connected Internet, which quickly became and is one of the most read on the site. Everton Blair suggested that I started a site up with FIFA 2008 news, I’ve done that and I’m proud to say that traffic is growing each day.
This is my first attempt at a “real” niche blog. I’ll try a few experiments on it.
The picture above shows the traffic increase over the last week until today, which explains the down hill.
I’ll try to work some social media magic on it, build a Squidoo lens, create a Blog Carnival, viral marketing on various blogs and forums and other stuff. About the monetization, I’ll apply for Chitika once I get more than 10,000 visitors, until then I’ll stay with Google Adsense and AuctionAds.
If you are into football/soccer and like to play it on your Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, PSP, Nintendo Wii, DS, Nokia N-Gage or PC, then please go to www.fifa2008news.com.
