    What is up with google giving a lot of arcades a pagerank of 0? I been trying to do some backlinking and a lot of the arcades I found in google search have a pagerank of 0. Anyone else notice this happening?

    Since building an arcade site requires some amount of web and database programming knowledge to be able to differentiate yourself (even if you buy a script), I'd recommend to try your hand at building your own script. This isn't for everyone, but if this is not your first site then maybe give it a try. The scripts are good to get started with, but when you build your own you'll be able to easily extend it as time goes on.

    my site www.FlashJunkies.com is been up for a few weeks now still trying to work on it and add new features and maket it more popular ....

    I see a lot of people making like 3 or more arcade sites .... i don't get it why that many ?

    I just want 1 and good .... if i invest all my time in one i can make a better product then splitting my time for 3.... or at least thats what i think so

    Look at armor games and newgrounds and addictingames .... they have only one website :D and they are frikking popular


    but i guess if you get more website that means more adsense so more money :D

    If someone make more arcade websites, he must make niche his work and not make all sites the same (games for girls, only puzzle games, only point & click games, etc.).

    I've found Niche Arcades are much easier to get off the ground. It took me many months to compete for a general arcade term but under a month to get a couple of niche arcades some traffic via SEO.

    You don't need a new niche for arcades. You just need a unique style of your arcade.
    Here's an example:

    http://www.redneckarcade.info
    This arcade is typed in "redneck language". If you look at the spelling of the descriptions you'll see that its hilarious and differnet. This isn't an extremely good example, but you know what I mean, right?


    BTW, The whole Pharcade Script network is currently for sale at DP. Maybe many of you would like to see this:

    The summer is where you break out with the advertising money and buy some traffic.

    yeah, looks pretty decent for a first site. At least it's a bit different than most of the generic looking ones!
