What is Football News Flash?
Football News Flash is a network of football blogs/websites. The network cross promotes other sites in the network, and the Football News Flash website aggregates stories from all over the network, attracting thousands of football fans to gather the top stories in one place.
All aggregated stories consist of a 50 word teaser and link to the original site’s story – no full stories are kept on the Football News Flash site, so visitors must go to the original site to read the full story. All websites in the network will also be advertised on the FNF website.
In addition to cross promoting network sites, the FNF website also sells advertising space. This revenue is split amongst network sites. Meanwhile, all network sites keep their individuality and freedom, as FNF does not interrupt individual sites’ business activities. Site owners always maintain full control and ownership of their content and their finances.
Why join Football News Flash?
There are many benefits to joining the Football News Flash network, and very few things change on your own site. Here are some of the perks:
- Promotion of your site and your articles on FNF website. As mentioned above, the FNF website aggregates all network articles with a link to the original full article. Network websites also have their banners rotated on the FNF website.
