4 Effective ways to make money watching the EPL in Nigeria

Football

The EPL, or English Premier League, is arguably the world’s most prestigious and popular domestic football competition. Billions worldwide tune into games weekly, and millions of football fans in Nigeria watching Premier League regularly. The good news is that, if you are one of those fans, there are several ways to make some money from your hobby.

1. Online Betting

This is arguably the easiest and fastest way to start making money watching EPL. Sports betting is a popular way for many EPL fans to make money from their hobby. It also makes watching the games more exciting, knowing you have money riding on the outcome.

Many famous and trustworthy sports betting sites, like Sportsbet.io, make betting on EPL matches effortless. There are also many different types and lines of betting. For example, outright betting is when you make bets before the match. In-play betting allows you to make live bets as you watch the action. The odds for each bet will be updated in real-time, so you can see where you stand.

You can make bets like which team you think will win the match, which teams will end in the top 3 ranking at the end of the season, and which teams will get relegated. It’s a great way to test your EPL knowledge and intuition.

However, you should always exercise caution when betting online, as it’s inherently risky. Only bet as much as you can afford to lose and start small until you know what to expect.

2. Blogging and Content Creation

Why not use your football knowledge and love of the game to become an influencer for your fellow EPL fans? Blogging or vlogging may sound intimidating, but it’s relatively easy to start once you know how.

However, to start making money, you’ll need to ensure that you build a loyal audience of followers. To do that, you must consistently create high-quality, relevant, entertaining, and valuable content. You also need to do keyword research and optimise your content for search engines by using SEO techniques.

Once you’ve done that, the easiest way to monetise your online presence is by displaying ads on your site through a service like Google AdSense.

3. Affiliate marketing

You may not have heard of affiliate marketing. However, it’s a simple business model where you are paid for referring people to buy from someone online. For example, you can create articles that review the top 10 EPL memorabilia for sale on Amazon.

By signing up for the Amazon Affiliates program or the Jumia affiliate program, you can refer readers to the Amazon marketplace and get rewarded for qualifying purchases.

4. Set Up a Football Viewing Center

This plan will require investing some money, time, and effort upfront. However, it can also be the most fun and lucrative way to make money watching EPL in Nigeria

Chances are, not everyone in your community has the opportunity to watch EPL at their home. Watching football alone at home also can’t match the excitement of watching it alongside other passionate fans. Creating a space where people can come together and watch the EPL in a festive atmosphere can be an exciting opportunity.

The most challenging part will be finding a suitable location to host the events and obtaining the relevant business licenses if you plan to sell food or alcohol. You will also need to arrange seating, a big-screen TV or projector, and a cable TV service, like DSTV.

Summary

For most, watching from home is as close as they’ll get to the action in the EPL. However, turning your hobby into a business is one way to increase the excitement and use that time productively.
