    Directory submissions is good, and making sure you have unique content is another. If you're using a gamepack try and change all the descriptions to something unique so you don't get penalized.

    I setup an arcade a while back but couldn't upload the games so it's a dead shell pretty much :(

    Take a look at www.MyGamesCentre.com :p

    Lol.

    If you want, I can upload the games for you for a small fee. With your marketing skills you can probably make back the money within 1 week.

    Not really - I suck ass at marketing sites, but I'll think about your offer. Do you have the ArcadeEm games on your computer/know how to upload them? :)

    well can i please point out

    - There is no such thing as easy traffic

    Its all down to how hard you work on your site with communication to other arcades, seo

    Utunes

    Google SERP

    Its mostly listed on Via of backlinks

    Google with all up all backlinks from each page then value them via page rank
    sites with less outbound link will give u more of a Page rank score for SERP

    also targte the keyword in the serch engine as ur backlink that the main proity

    try to use a keyword within your domain name if possible.

    My suggestion is around 2000 direcoty submission, weekly artcial submissions, blog posts, and lots link exchanges and lots of unquie content so google keep crawling u last thing u need is sandbox

    Hope this helps

    I'm interested in starting an arcade-site. What script should I use? And where can I get layouts and games? What kind of hosting I need?
    And how much is it gonna cost overall?

    I actually once started one with a free script, but it looked awful and i didn't even buy a domain for it...

    I'm in the A category...

    I have my own arcade script, which you can see on Adverbux.com (only viewable after logging in though). It saves scores, and the top players for each game get a cash prize each month. Premium members on my site also earn money for every game they play. It's a nice setup :)

    PhpArcadeScript has a very powerful arcade, but lacks a bit in design. So if you have the money to code your own or buy one, that one is good too.

    uTunes, the best place is on banner exchanges and directly on arcades.

    How much do you think you're going to sell it for? The domain name is worth some good money itself.

    ^ A couple of notes. This applies to Arcadem Pro 2.63 which will be released in the next month. 3 things are in this chart which are not applicable to 2.62. 1) Automatic updates 2) 3700 games 3) Syntax highlighting code editor. Those 3 things are being introduced in Arcadem Pro 2.63.
