    skinzee.com/phparcadescript-templates.html

    I want to change that template. Can some please tell me

    1- How to increase traffic to my website and revenue ( using ad sense right now)

    1. Arcade sites are no different than ordinary sites. Use link building, SEO, link exchanges, traffic exchanges, social bookmarking, social networking and others...

    @mrgee,

    Thanks a lot for your help. You were very helpful. I just add few plus to your reputation for your great help :). If some senior arcade owner has to add more please do so.

    Unfortunately, i have to wait for 4-7 more days before i can post something for a hiring, but i think i should start the SEO, link building and exchange thing :).
    Thanks a lot mrgee
    Regards
    DpGeek

    You can try to make some traffic exchanges via gameplugs, that will be some extra traffic to your site, then you can also try some different banner exchanges, to get more traffic to your site.

    If you want can you allways contact me on msn, and I will help you out.

    Its a really good blog you have made about running a arcade site, but I thing it would be a good idea to put something in about game plugs, more and more webmaster use this to trade traffic.

    I recently purchased an arcade from sitepoint and moved it to my own domain that I have owned since 2004. Any suggestion from you guys on how to go about promoting it, and/or improving it would be of great help.

    I have already started implementing your suggestions in this forum, but any other advise is most welcome. The site is: Gudloo.com

    Thanks and Regards,

    Asyan

    Old thread I know, But Im( A )

    Started to go towards B there at one stage but soon snapped out of that,lol...

    One or two sites are the way to go..

    My main niche is war games....I like war games a lot myself so I think I will be more interested in building the site and keeping it fresh..

    Cool thread by the way...Good to see some TA names 2

    Anything that is unique and stands out from other arcades is a good idea.
