I created a site BetNext where you can place virtual bets on sports teams with virtual money of $100,000.. The site got mentioned in Techcrunch (world's top tech blog) but still there are no enough visitors..what should I do to promote the site? Where I should market the site?? Can anyone guide where I should advertise my site..? USP of the site: you can bet from any twitter client using this format -"@betnext {amount} on {Teamname} - date"
Why hasn't it worked? Did the users not convert? I'd recommend that you post about your site on the various gaming forums - ask people what they think about it, but don't direct advertise. You could also post about it on the link in my signature - in the virtual worlds/games forum. Twitter users sometimes don't convert all that well, unless you meet new people that are interested in playing games - they usually find the content when they type in a hash tag, and your site is on that hash tag.
I only have one thing to say to this post regarding twitter: If you need to get 1,000 followers fast, would it be easier to build 1 account up to 1,000 or 10 accounts to 100? Be Creative and you will be amazed at the time you will save. B.Hunter

Was it a main article about the game or just a passing mention? Did you see any increased visitors at all?
Hi there, Link building on relevant sites could be helpful. Posting banner ads, text link, as well as pop up ads are all recommended. I've got a PR3 computer related blog, which offer all kinds of information about computer, Gadget, website design, web hosting, SEO, as well as other technology related things. If you are looking to promote your game via link building, my site might fit your niche. PM me and let me know what niche u need and I will let u know what I can offer.
