Q&A: How can I monetize a site for fans of Black superheroes?

Notes from Chris

Episode 1383

Even though Comic Con couldn’t happen this year, millions of people will look forward to its return—and of course, comics and anime and fantasy culture continue in lots of other forms as well.

In today’s episode, a listener wants to build a fan site showcasing Black superheroes from DC and Marvel comics—and of course he wants to know how to monetize it.

"This is Kendrick from Dallas, Texas, and I've been listening to the show for about a year now. The stories give me the extra motivation I need to keep working on my side hustle. So I'm thinking about building a website that showcases all of the black superheroes in the DC and Marvel universes. It will feature profiles of the characters. The latest news and updates, as well as where they can be found on TV shows or movies. So my question is, what's the best way to monetize a fan site like this, preferably without plastering a lot of ads on the site, which I think takes away from the overall user experience. "
