I have a new arcade web site at http://www.tophitgames.com and I am looking for other ways to market it. Here is what I am doing so far 1. Game directories and general directories 2. Top list sites you can see the buttons at the bottom of the page 3. Social networking sites What are some other good methods do you feel?
freebie-sites might work for that as well, and if you can organise contests with prizes (or just a prize to the winner) you can even put your url on contest-sites. if you buy games or create, or have games created you can upload those games to other game-sites and put a link when it's loading to your site, "for more games visit: Tophitgames.com" you can also put this in the game itself, as one of the buttons they can click. and in the menu of the game if it has a menu. you can use game-forums as well. greetz, jobic
I would have to agree. I Stumble all my blog posts and Stumble now is my largest traffic driver. The downside is I have never had a comment where some said "I stumbled onto your website." Remember, social media sites drive the curious to your website, but they are seldom buyers. If you have forums that are specific to your websites market then do use those. This group is already interested in what you have to offer. Just make sure to add positive feedback to the conversations.
you need to keep cash prizes on the games and then advertise the fact that people can actually make money playing games on your website........
I am not to sure about telling people they can make money for playing games. Im here to make money not spend it. There are plenty arcade sites out there that get tons of traffic and non of them offer cash rewards. I have recently found a few sites that offer games for free or paid for and they are very popular. Going to add these and then Digg them etc see if it drives in more traffic. What are some main sites you use that are like Digg and stumbleupon ?
Interesting... StumpleUpon has done nothing for me in terms of relevant traffic. True they may artificially boost your numbers but none of my stumbles have ever browsed more than a page or stayed for more than 1-2 seconds on the website.
I have to agree with you on this point and disagree as well. Stumblers often leave before a page completely loads. I know I do this. I am looking for unique ideas and I get delivered up a lot of sites of deal with web design and CSS. However, My Bookmakers are loaded with very useful sites that I have stumbled upon. I use Stumble for link building and branding rather than for sales. I also use it to share cool sites with others. So it can be both a blessing and a curse.
