    Hi

    I have a video games related site, and have built up a list of 5000 newsletter subscribers. I wanted to have a go at marketing something to them - their common interest is video games, and they are 99% american and british.

    I have no experience at doing this. I was looking for something video game related, preferably on clickbank or something similar, that i could plug in my next newsletter.

    The only thing i could find was the become a games tester thing, but i wasnt keen on that.

    Could anyone help me with some other ideas and advice at making some money out my list?

    Cheers

    Nice! Hmm, that's a tough one. You could always find someone on eBay who sells a particular game or accessory that you think people may be interested in, and mark up the game a little and keep the profit. Just a thought.

    Or you can partner up with a incentives site that offers gaming stuff for free and you can earn referral money for each person you point towards them

    WoW Stuff - World of Warcraft there are plenty of guides out there on clickbank. On top of that there are plenty of game hints tips and tricks there as well. If you want to you can also join up with direct2drive affiliate program you can earn a percentage of any sales made there. Honestly video game industry = BIG $$$

    What about a game copying product like: http://www.gamecopywizard.com/.

    There's a few of those out there and I think that would sell really well to the video game niche.
