How to promote game site

Hi guys. How do you promote games blog like http://www.moneygamesonline.net/? Certainly you cant use article marketing?

 

you can use banner exchanges just google "arcade banner exchanges"

 

you can use banner exchanges while generating impression with cheap auto traffic

 

Try to advertise through services like Mochi.

 

I think banner exchange wont do well. we need to get people to click the banner in my site. Why should I do that, if I can get more money if someone click my adsense?

 

Try, adwords, banner exchanging, sponsoring good games, etc.

 

Where can I get games to sponsor?

 

If you have budget i can suggest http://www.flashgamelicense.com/ and http://www.mochimedia.com 's forums

 

There is not really a reason you could not use articles etc, just post about new game releases, tips and hints, new console rumors etc, something to create a little talk can give you a lot of traffic.

 

IMO, gaming forums signatures are #1! Also, I'd use some video marketing

 

Can you show any good gaming forum KPHudson?

 

I think promote in game forums it okay.

 

you can change the banner to promote your site

 

What forum should I use?

 

There are tons of gaming blogs, what if you write a guest blog for a few of them?

 

Promoting any site is depends on the relevancy of source pages. Blog comments on relative blogs, forum postings on relative forums and other sources is the good way I think.

 

That's what I think too. But what article should I write?

 

It depends. What's hot in the gaming world right now. What are the controversies? What was your take on E3? Is your take different from the thousands of other articles about the conference?

Maybe you could make a list. It seems a little overdone, but they sure do show up a lot. Particularly on the front page of Digg. I assume you read other gaming writers regularly. What are they doing that's successful? How can you twist it yourself? These are all of the things I think about when writing.

 

drive traffic to your sites thru forum postings. there are a lot of game site forums where you can engage on high conversation thread. use your signatures to drive them to your site.

 

Join gaming forum. Add url to your signature with a brief description of the site. Make sure your posts are relevant to topics so that it isn't obvious that you are just there to push your site. Repeat this for as many sites as you can handle. Even smaller niche sites will get you not only some SE recognition, but click throughs as well.
