That's funny! Anybody reported this? I do have a suggestion though. If you ever post a porno link, do give people a warning. I often post here for work (from work) and the last thing I want is to get shit from my boss 'cos he thinks I am looking at porn during work hours. Cheers!
Firstly, arcade /gaming sites do not pay to begin with. Secondly, you are running an arcade script run but hundreds or maybe thousands of other arcade sites, which is pretty much resulting in mega duplicate content.
This unfortunately is the issue. You have to find a way to add to your site to make it more than just an arcade site. Give them a forums and other game related content. This will give you something that many of the others do not have.
What I did for my arcade site that I purchased the script for was recode it to make it unique and better than all the other sites that run the same script, you should maybe look into that. So far today I got 845 clicks for $40.22 on my game sites, which is 5 cent per click average, and its that "high" only due to couple dollar clicks. GOod luck
I am coding some custom forums right now so I will get those up when i get done. however I see that many arcade sites with forums are not to active any way
Couldn't agree more. I have tried the whole forum thing about a year ago and barely got 25 posts in half a year on alexa 80K site. I am going to give it another try though, I am actually implementing a forum into a game site as we speak. Good luck biggerboy
It may not be as active now, but make the forums about more than just your site. Make it about gaming of all types and let that become viral. Let the games you offer be second to the growth of your gaming forum and the rest of the site will eventually boom. The games are a good way to draw them in at the moment and eventually you will do better. You might consider adding articles about gaming also.
I am adding forums and chat to my gaming sites just so that users may interact if they choose... not even putting any ads on it. As the forum grows I will implement ads.
Thank you very much, I got a new idea for this new forum, is that it will be shared between 30 gaming sites and will be hosted on an independent domain, thus giving the forum 40,000 links from 30 diff pr 2-5 gaming sites, so hopefully the forum will get good SERPS as well and also more users since 30 diff sites will be sharing the same forum.
as I said I will not be intragrating forums... I am coding custom forums. One that interact better while you are playing games ect. I will try it out when I get them done but I am still thinking that they might not be too active
Smart shot coding your own forums. That would certainly increase the amount of games played if you do that well. ( And off course your adsense revenue ). Isn't it a LOT of work to actually code your own forum??
I had expected that For me, I think the most difficult part would be to understand the structure of the code of the forum. If you know how everything hangs together, it's really easy to make modifications. Luckily there are a lot tutorials on the net for making plugins.
