Facebook is huge today with more and more people making millions from it. With more than 800 million users, it’s very hard not to make money from it. If you haven’t realized it, Facebook apps are a huge opportunity for you to tap into.

Here’s recent news from Forbes.com. It claims that the owner of Zynga is worth USD 20 billion right now. For your info, Zynga is the company that creates the famous Farmville and Cityville with millions of users. Now before you go thinking about creating something like that, stop. It’s probably not going to happen but this is what you can see from Zynga: games are apps!

Generally, Facebook users use Facebook for social networking and “playing” apps. The good news is, even if you have no programming skill, you can still hire a programmer to churn out a simple app easily. It could just cost you around $100-$200 to get it developed.

What kind of simple app can you create?

You can just create a simple Facebook app that has a viral effect to be shared and let people to pass it around on Facebook. There are millions of people every day that use Facebook  and the trick is to reach these Facebook users with your app.
The trick of reaching Facebook users is to have viral features to get them to “Like,” posting to wall, and also to invite user’s friends to use your app. Regardless of how simple your app is, you can still make your app go viral with just these features in your app.

Here’s the best part of a Facebook app. Even if a user is not using any of the viral features above, your app will still show up in the user’s recent activity on their timeline/wall post. It is literally getting free advertisement without you paying any advertisement fees. Of course, your app must be interesting enough to get people to click into it.

The trick of using interesting name for your app to go viral

Every app has its own name. The name for your app should be interesting enough. Unlike Farmville and Cityville that have buillt a strong brand, your simple app should be named as something that can be related to many people. For example: Fortune Cookie, Daily Horoscope, and What Games Should I Play? Or What Music Should I Listen To?, etc.

The purpose of your simple app is to get users to get interested in your app’s name first, and then click into your app to see what is in your app. Most of the time, users will like what they see in your app because in the first place, your app’s name is what interests and relates to them. Of course, the function in your app must be related to your app’s name.

By just using an interesting name, you won’t have to invest thousands of dollars to build a brand that makes your app go viral.

Where can you hire a programmer?

You can go to freelancer.com or elance.com to post a job to hire a programmer. Keep in mind that if you were to hire a programmer, it is important that you look at the programmer’s past projects with good ratings. When you are working with a programmer, make sure that you explain the details for the development of your app consistently. Explain to the programmer as specifically as possible as to what you want to have in your app.

As you can see, there are many opportunities available to create simple apps. I hope this simple Facebook app idea will help you to get started profitably.
