Where to find paid players for my site?

    Hi there,

    I have a multiplayer game site and I am launching it and trying to build up traffic.

    I buy advertising however when my visitors come to my site they ind that there is nobody online to play, so they go away never to be back!

    I'm just wondering how I can get some "paid players" for my site so that it is always busy?

    Its kinda similiar to a paid poster for a forum!

    Thanks!

    Dave.

    Haven't done this before so I have no idea about pricing. I would want people available for 1 day to play people that visit my guest rooms. Give me an idea of what your willing to do it for?

    I have some idea on it.
    If you can pay some "ok" amount then I can do this for you I think.

    Make a Press release telling people that you have launched your site, and would give $$$ to those who play your game?

    Thanks Game Producer. Thats a pretty impressive service you have there, I'm gonna get a cost on redesigning my site to enable me to automate tournaments and prizes and also make a chat lobby in the main game lobby. Its a pool game by the way.
    Savagemic PM me with some more details. Anybody else can PM me also with offers.

    I hired somebody for 5 hours today and things went well so far. I'm considering a major site redesign to sort out some issues I found after testing with large amounts of visitors. Gonna be running great competitions on it soon.

    Why dont you spend the money on advertising more and then there will be playes for oher players to play.

    Maybe set up tournements at certain times with a small cash prize and there you should get a lot of people at the same time

    You can pay people like me to do it, or you can use Simon's advice and advertise more.

    Thanks guys,

    Yeah working on a redesign right now with the guys who made the site. I'm gonna hold off on the hiring until thats done. I think advertising and hiring a few people is important for this type of site.

    What you think of it anyway? www.2nh.com

    Gonna make weekly competitions with Ipods, cash etc..
    Actually, you think cash is better?

    Dave.
